About the Artist: Dixie Purvis
Dixie Taylor Purvis is an abstract painter known for her large abstracts – oil on panel. The abstracts are remarkable for the strong and varied marks and the bold colors. The abstracts explode and surprise, moving out from the middle and in from the sides. They are raw and open but dense and complex. The marks are physical and fractured. Sometimes the marks are spontaneous, other times deliberate but always suggesting the complexity of our human experience – accidental or planned. Events overlap, merge and emerge much like our personal history. Inspired by a refrain from a song, a dream or a personal event she paints from her core and leaves it all on the surface. While she occasionally includes figurative elements she avoids “things” preferring to stay with organic shapes and imagery allowing the viewer to bring their own experience and emotion to the painting.
About the Artist: Adele Yonchak
While her formal training and focus was in oil, Adele now primarily uses acrylic paint after discovering her technique of layering texture and color with its fast drying process suited her creative process. Adele enjoys keeping her subject matter familiar but with a unique point of view. Her goal is to produce work that feels at home but in an unexpected way. Adele is attracted to abstracted landscapes and simple scenes illustrated in unique ways.
