How in the world have I not posted about Ciou before? (Actually, I haven’t posted about many of my all time favorite artists because I always have a flood of new material pouring in).

Her style is so unique, when you see a Ciou piece…you KNOW it’s Ciou.

Black lines, dense color and big eyes aplenty, her work is almost dizzying to look at, in the best possible way. It’s a psychedelic twirling and merging of worlds.

CT Nelson’s paintings are gorgeous explorations of light, color and movement. Some are breathtaking abstracts, taking the eye on a frenetic, sweeping journey…

And others contain familiar forms that give way to chaos and energy.

Lori Nelson’s work frequently features beams of light, illuminating either an unseen surrounding reality, or bringing her subjects into the hypnotic trance of electronic devices that effectively take them OUT of remarkable surroundings.

Other images are portraits, sometimes a bit uncomfortable to look at. Human…almost.
