My Favorite Things - Holiday Art Exhibit

Elisa Contemporary Art has curated My Favorite Things.  This Holiday Season art exhibit is focused on Fun and Joy and opened at Vintology Wine & Spirits on November 18.  It will run through January 5, 2014.

My Favorite Things features the artwork of Austin Artist, Allison Gregory, Florida Artist, Paula Brett, and New York Artist, Melinda Hackett.

As viewers see the artwork of Allison Gregory, a smile starts to form.
 
Her enamel, resin and acrylic canvases are richly layered, brightly colored and drip with delight.  In her latest series of Bullseyes, she

combines resin, pigment and eye-shadow to create highly dimensional

artworks.

Florida artist, Paula Brett has created a series

entitled Candala.  These limited edition photographs are Mandalas made

from pieces of Candy!  According to Paula, “The mandala symbolizes the

law of the universe and since man is also a microcosm of the universe,

many cultures believe that the mandala also symbolizes the human soul.  

Mandalas serve as collection point for universal forces…My intention

with these candalas is to arrange everyday sweets into a pattern which

becomes scared, where delicious turns divine, the enticing now

exquisite.
”  This exhibit debuts Paula Brett's work for the first time

with Elisa Contemporary Art.
