Up Close with Anne Hanley
Bright Batik & Watercolor Art for the Wall 
Meet Batik & Watercolor Artist, Anne Hanley
"Passion and the desire for expression motivates me to create and explore.  My work is Batik, an ancient art form that I have transformed into contemporary works of art. I alternate layers of 400 degree hot wax and watercolor paint on a rice paper surface until complete." 

The colorful blend of watercolors and hot wax on a rice paper surface is a unique alteration of the centuries old art form.  Titled, "Balance", hot wax and watercolor are applied in layers and then all wax is removed.  Watercolor Artist, Anne Hanley 48" X 53"

"White Sails" begins with a composition in mind and render linear forms using a traditional tool and hot wax. Washes of blues, greens, reds, yellows and purples  are added. The method is repeated, adding layers of hot wax and washes of watercolor paint until the painting is complete. 30" X 40"

Removing all the layers of wax reveals layers of images. Keeping those original layers allows Anne to add more wax and opaque color adding more depth and interest to her work. Titled "11 Houses in a Row" you can see all greens, blues, purples, yellows and reds pop!  30" X 40"

Meet Artists Robert & Michelle Casarietti
Beautiful Abstract Art for the Wall 

Meet Acrylic Painters, Robert & Michelle Casarietti
"W
e create original one of a kind abstract paintings that have a meditative ethereal essence.  What has evolved is a collaboration of two artists, husband and wife, who share their souls and spirits on the same canvas."

The intent is to create a sublime spiritual experience through use of blues and form. Titled, "Floating", this painting transports the observer to their own inner sanctuary. That special quiet place, where the fast pace of daily life melts away and one returns to a calm, coherent state of being.  Acrylic Painters, Robert & Michelle Casarietti- 50" X 50"
