Brian Guidry Oxizion 2014 acrylic, oil on canvas 40.5" x 33"
brianguidry.com
Guidry is a painter from Louisiana that uses geometry and nature to inform
and guide his painting. Refracting light on water, vegetation, machinery all come
together as he builds his abstract hi-breds.

You Ni Chae
You Ni Chae Double Dutch 2013 oil on canvas 20" x 18"
younichae.com
You Ni Chae is a graduate of SAIC originally from So. Korea. She blends her Asian history with current trends in abstract painting in a most interesting way. I get the feeling that scholar rocks and mid-west landscape have been conflated to become her her own unique visual language. Elegant and tough, diaphanous and concrete, beautiful and unsettling.

Thanks to Stephen Paraise for mentioning Wendy McLean's website to
me. She is a British painter that shares an aesthetic with many other
painters that I post. Just enough implied and not encumbered with
the unnecessary.

Matthias Zinn
Matthias Zinn Window 2011-12 oil on canvas 59.5" x 43.30"

I don't know why Zinn's painting feels so right when it looks to be so wrong. The over painted element in white just pulls me into this composition. I love it when a painting does this. Does any one else feel this way?

Milton Avery
Milton Avery (1893-1965) Sunday Riders 1929 oil on canvas 30" x 25"

What could be better than Milton Avery for a Fall day? Always one of my favorite painters for his observational skills and straight forward paint handling.

Chris Martin
Chris Martin Untitled 2014 oil, glitter, aluminum foil on canvas 64 1/4" x 59 1/4"

Martin continues his inventive abstraction with a new group of paintings incorporating glitter, foil as well as traditional oil paint. He seems to mashing up pictorial elements of Schnabel and Kelly with low brow aesthetics to form his own painting vernacular. Quite effectively I might add.

Despina Stokou
Despina Stokou Acknowledgements 1 2012 mixed media on canvas 63.25" x 48"
derekeller.com
Using obfuscated text combined with performative paint application, Stokou sets up a discourse with the viewer of her paintings. Allusions to personal and art world dialogues with supple paint handling are nothing new but Stokou's work strikes a chord that is familiar yet strange. I get the sense that I am looking at the genetic thread of Twombly and Basquiat weaving its way as she navigates through her work.

Frank Lentini
Frank Lentini Untitled 2011 oil on wood 24" x 18"

I like what Lentini doesn't say in his paintings. He alludes to many elements
without defining any specific one. This allusion allows him to illustrate the
unknowable as he mines his imagination through his painting.

Becky Yazdan
Becky Yazdan 2013 Big Dipper 2013 oil on panel 12" x 9"
beckyyazdan.com
Yazdan's paintings give evidence that small work can pack a large punch.
Almost all of the work she produces is smaller that 18" x 24". Each
painting seems much larger with her use of line, color and texture taking the
viewer to an abstract vision that is evocative and profound.
