MIXED MEDIA PAINTINGS

Picture
Picture
"I start my paintings by creating chaos – marks and smears that are spontaneous and beautiful all on their own. Then I build energy and content with color and line.
 
I want to create art that you will look at again and again. I want to create a painting that draws you in to look closely to see the mystery of its creation.  My work does not have a philosophical message, it is purely the paint, the colors, the texture, the surprises. I paint my response to my world.  I paint my emotion. Enjoy."

PAINTINGS AND FINE ART PRINTS
Picture
"My goal is to convey the essence of a landscape, while eliminating much of its detail; similar to that first impression, or the large shapes you see when your eyes
​are half open. I consider my work atmospheric-transitional. Influences for my work are primarily from impressionism, the tonalist movement and abstract expressionism."

Wendy is a graduate of East Carolina University with a degree in Fine Art. She worked in the fields of graphic design and photography for many years before coming full circle to painting.

CONTEMPORARY DOG AND CAT ART

Picture
"Painting is my gateway to happiness and freedom of spirit. Art is magical and has the power to transform the human existence. Why paint pets? Because they represent the purest forms of unconditional love. They love irrespective of gender, race or creed.

My love for animals stems from the deep connection I have with my own pets. I have two Chihuahuas, Sadie and Maya and one Chihuahua/Poodle mix, Frida. These babies have enhanced my life in ways that I could never explain. My heart goes out to those animals that do not have permanent homes or loving families.

​I actively work with local animal rescue groups and donate my art to raise awareness and provide financial support for these wonderful organizations that strive to give all animals a deserving, loving home."

FINE ART WATERCOLORS
Picture
Picture
My watercolors are improvised on the urban landscape - gritty, stark, rough - engaging a deeper emotion - using
shadow, texture, color and glazes moving art to a more complex tonality. The style is a product of the time and place. The versatility is my signature.
Charlsen’s background as a theatrical lighting designer in New York City for
31 years has allowed her to incorporate her knowledge of light, shadow, scale, colors and textures to culminate an artistic drama. Her work is inspired by architecture and cityscapes captured through the lens of her camera.

​I approach a canvas without a subject in mind; I make marks. The act of applying color and shape to the canvas move me to the next mark.  I recognize and then begin to see the unfolding.  It’s a mysterious process that I hope will encourage the viewer to see more deeply. It will change the way they observe with enlightened eyes.
