About Frank Ettenberg
FE has been involved with art since 1960. That year he decided to become an artist. Nothing has dissuaded him since then. From that beginning, Frank's been been drawn to seeing what he can do with non-objective picturemaking. Part of his journey is to be seen here. Imagination has much to do with it, also a love of contrast, and efficient, ingenious, & sometimes intese working process. Inspired and engaging, this sort of process is sought after, no matter where it might be seen

FEATURED ARTISTS
Barbara Houwers
Blaricum, Amsterdam, Netherlands
About Barbara Houwers
Barbara Houwers is a Dutch artist, specialising in painting. She lives and works in Blaricum (Amsterdam region). Her successful series inspired by themes around the human being have led to many exhibitions and commissions from companies, government and institutions. Barbara’s works can be found both in private and corporate collections and public buildings. Barbara Houwers was mainly known for her paintings of human figures, mostly painted in subdued earth tones. However, in 2013 she switched to more abstract pieces of art in geometrical patterns and sometimes also bright colours. This seems to be a great style break, however, as with many artists, also for Houwers a logical further development of her basic forms. Herewith the artist is not afraid of new techniques and materials. So she designed portable objects with the 3-D printing technique and she made the switch to more three-dimensional work. Houwers’s technique evolved from a traditional painting technique with the human figure as a theme to a more experimental treatment of her materials. The brush was partly replaced by the palette knife and besides paint, also other materials such as sand and resin were introduced. This experimental treatment of the material came back with the series of works Houwers made at the start of the millennium where the aspect of space predominated. In 2007 the geometric form appeared with the series “little suitcases”. The human shape was more reduced to a contour line. Houwers made the switch to the theme of repetition in 2013. By the repetition of shapes a feel of rest is created. The beauty of this type of art is formed by the techniques used by Houwers. The paint is applied in many layers by the palette knife. In this way an art is created that refers to itself and less to the tangible world. The love for the material has become the subject of her art, still the humaneness remains secured in her works by filling in the geometrical forms with a natural brush technique whereby the brush strokes still strongly remind of the human figure. This creates an abstract formal art of painting that directly appeals to and reflects the human emotion, a daring combination only tried by a few artists. Barbara Houwers does not only have the guts to convey the contrast between the rational geometric and the emotional, but above all she has got the talent to do so.

SPOON
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
About SPOON
After working in the Architecture and Urban Planning Profession for nearly a decade in Seattle, studying Urban Design in Paris, and managing projects all over the world, SPOON developed a strong
appreciation for graphic communication and elegant design. Combined with a long-standing passion for history and culture, it was a natural progression for her to begin developing unique pieces of
artwork in a new style, based on a simultaneously simple and complex intent:
“WHAT IS THE MINIMAL AMOUNT OF INFORMATION THE BRAIN NEEDS TO PERCEIVE A SUBJECT?”
This analysis, of only the essential elements, draws upon the ideas of minimalism that SPOON has studied and lived. In her work, she is constantly evaluating the resolution and complexity that a subject warrants and redacts it to its finest point. Then, with an almost mathematical precision, she applies the initial principals that she set when creating this style of painting – limited point sizes, restricted to a grid, historic and cultural influences. This blend of contemporary and historical, art and science, is what makes her artwork so adaptable and her client base so diverse.
As a LEED Green Accredited Design Professional, SPOON is always conscious of the materials and methods she uses in creating her artwork. From sourcing local small businesses to using non-toxic and environmentally safe mediums, SPOON makes sure that she is using the best materials on the market while maintaining a sense of responsibility.
Moving throughout a room changes the way SPOON’s paintings are experienced. Depending on the nuances of your angle, distance and aperture, her artwork will constantly be changing in clarity, giving it a uniquely dynamic character that is always best experienced in person.
