I decided this year to honour some of the great rock guitarists and their guitars. In that spirit I have included their names to my painting. My work was completed when, as the focal point, I added a Dean- Flying "V". I am happy to say that the painting has found a new home with a guitar collector and is hanging in his music room keeping company to a real Dean and other fine guitars.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5IJlS-mi9as/X-zdSCTfGGI/AAAAAAAAAvs/JhthLUx4b8QnnqWAfqaxrsMC6uejqFtXACLcBGAsYHQ/s1280/thumbnail_IMG_3453%255B1%255D.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="485" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5IJlS-mi9as/X-zdSCTfGGI/AAAAAAAAAvs/JhthLUx4b8QnnqWAfqaxrsMC6uejqFtXACLcBGAsYHQ/w242-h640/thumbnail_IMG_3453%255B1%255D.jpg" width="242" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;"> </p>Alice Berlonihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02990600673207771159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8721636637127001015.post-15319088949707823872019-10-28T09:13:00.003-04:002020-12-29T15:58:06.621-05:00HIGHLIGHTS 2019 - Reception<br />

Drawing and painting the human body can be challenging when the intention is abstracting. I easily got caught in the many details of the figure and that wasn’t what I was after. I like to share with you some of my figurative work on canvas and on paper.<br />

I entered one of my large pieces and two of my New York Series in previous Impact Juried Exhibits . All three paintings were selected to participate in the 2016 and 2017 shows. I was happy seeing I was going in the right direction with my work. Eventually I will show the complete body of work of both series.<br />
<div>
For most part of 2018 I have concentrated on the exploration of new expressions in collage and image transfers. This year my focus is on work on paper using a combination of acrylic paint, water soluble pencils, neon paint and acrylic skins. This new series, called <b>Under my Skin, </b>has already 15 pieces and although small in size, 12”x16”, the activity in them is very intense.<br />
<br />
Under my Skin #14 was selected by jurors Jennifer Cairns and Nathan Heuvingh to participate in this year’s exhibition.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #eeeeee;">I started this series of mega cities with New York on my mind. This city fascinates me. The energy of New Yorkers, those that live within, commute to and from, and visitors alike feeds power and vibrance to this incredible city. After visiting Manhattan several times a year, I experienced the special drive for success that people pull for, to make it in a giant city. The red in my collages is intended to capture this very energy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #eeeeee;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #eeeeee;">My painting, <strong>East Side Memories</strong>, captures the vibrant activity of day time and night life by the water at South Street Seaport while <strong>West Side Memories</strong> captures the green areas along the pedestrian trail on the Hudson River.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #eeeeee;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: "calibri" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #eeeeee;">The destruction of the Twin Towers is represented by the ravished steel and concrete at the centre of the collage, contrasted by the cranes and construction of the several buildings that now call World Trade Centre home. To me, these cranes are representative of the people’s strength and courage in the face of fear and adversity.</span></div>

Painting family momentsFew years ago, I have saved the photo of my two daughters jumping in the Andes during a trip to Peru. I have cherished that picture for the untouched beauty of Nature in this part of the world and for the meaning that I have attached to that moment.... Two sisters sharing a travel experience while still young and free from the stress that eventually pollutes life.<br />

<br />
An enthusiastic group of Lions and friends gathered, once again, to raise funds for different community projects. I have donated one of my paintings to be raffled among the guests.<br />
<strong>Fall is in the Air</strong> is a 16" x 20" acrylic on paper.The recipient of the first prize was Gloria Garces. I was very happy because Gloria loved it. I am sure she will find the perfect place in her home for my painting.<br />
