Painting, Acrylic on Canvas

Large abstraction from my portfolio: “From Rhythm to Form” My series of abstract paintings titled “From Rhythm to Form” began when I started to use thinned acrylic paint as color stains to form a central atmospheric shape. These "Centers," existing at first as fields of pure color emerging from an undefined ground, would then be shaped by semi-opaque passages of paint where the texture and dramatic gesture of the surrounding strokes would contrast with the smooth effect of the stain. In relating these circular motifs to the rectangular format, I am involved in how the spatial effect of colors, their placement and sequence, lets the painting breathe and transforms it into an imaginary space where the power of suggestion resides in the expressive capacity of color and form.

Marsha Solomon has been living and working as a painter in New York. Before moving to New York, Solomon received a B.A. in Art from the University of Maryland, and did graduate studies in painting at the highly regarded Maryland Institute of Art, and later at the Art Students League in New York. She worked as an art teacher both in the public schools in Baltimore, and as a private instructor.Marsha Solomons work has been exhibited in galleries and museums in the New York area, as well as in Chicago, Washington, DC, and Columbus, Ohio. She has been included in publications such as The New York Art Review and the NY Arts Magazine.After painting large abstract works for many years, Solomon has returned to realism with an extensive series of still-lifes on both canvas and paper. Her training in abstraction has given her a unique approach in composing her paintings, in which she explores the relationships of movement and color, arranging them in an apparently flattened space. Marsha cites her inspirations in this series as being sources as diverse as Japanese woodblock prints, the color and linear flow in Matisses work, and still-life compositions from Dutch genre paintings through Czanne.A single, unified shape unfolds onto a white space. Patterns connect and define the form as colors communicate in harmonic chords.My recent series of contemporary still life paintings, which encompasses the work of several years, presents a distinctive vision. I use for my compositions intricately woven fabrics and objects collected from around the world, brightly colored glass, and antique ceramics to create a unified form that is both inventive and meticulously composed. For me, as an artist, a still life is never still.Works by Marsha Solomon available for viewing on my websitewww.marshasolomon.com TapestriesVessels of TimeEquivalentsColors of LightVines and FlowersFrom Rhythm to Form
