Juried Exhibition: Layering-Collage Mixed Media Hosted by NAWA

Mary Ahern Artist Posted on by

My collage using Color Aid paper, Nude Descending a Staircase – Next Step, was juried into the
National Association of Women Artists Layering Exhibition.

This online show will be on view from
September 10 – November 5, 2021.
An online Reception will be held on September 16, 2021 from 5-6pm

This artwork of mine is from an uncertain period of my life and reflects how, at the time, I was looking into myself and deciding where my life was taking me, what journey I was thinking of embarking upon. The concentrated gazing at my personal self, the potential for missteps and danger in those decisions I was contemplating are all the forces behind this work.

Artists2artists Social Networking for Artists

Mary Ahern Artist Posted on by

As an artist member of the Artists2artists Social Network, I posted some of my work in their online gallery.

Their resident curator, Kristen T Woodward* saw my work and wrote about it. She has allowed me to share her review. 

Here is her review of my work:

It was a joy to discover your series of large-scale flower paintings on view this morning.  Subtle Exuberance- Tree Peony held my attention the longest, with it’s delicately curling petals, and contrasts of value.  The lower chroma hues within the areas of shadow- variations of brown and muted violets, are a surprising color scheme in the giant bloom.  The colors beautifully contrast with the complementary yellow center’s delicate stamens, which provides striking textural variation against the smooth petals. The abstraction of the flowers presented in large format grants them an otherworldly quality.  I find the peony works, including Worth the Wait are particularly effective in their restraint of color. Thank you for sharing your work. I look forward to viewing more over time.

 

* This is Kristen Woodward’s bio:

My name is Kristen T Woodward, and I am the official resident curator for Artists2artists. Please view my short bio below:

A Professor of Art at Albright College in Pennsylvania, I have exhibited my mixed media paintings in over 200 venues since 2000.  I currently teach introductory through advanced levels of undergraduate printmaking & painting, including oil and water media, and encaustic. I have also team taught interdisciplinary courses on Latin American graphic art, and gender and the visual arts. Currently, I am collaborating with a biologist to explore tropical ecosystems in Central America.
