Jessica Warner, “By the Waters,” September 26 – November 8, 2014

Jessica Warner’s painting and drawings begin as “lines that build up or grow into forms.” Repetition creates an energy that moves in and through her compositions. Vibrant colors amplify the implied kinetic energy. This organic process results in lines and shapes that seem propelled by natural forces. Through this method, she “weaves strands of color” into dynamic imagery that suggests both landscape and still life.

Jessica Baron Warner received her BFA magna cum laude from SUNY Purchase with a concentration in painting and drawing. Her work has been exhibited throughout Upstate New York. In June 2011, she had a solo show at the CAP Artspace in Ithaca, NY which was partially funded through a New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) SOS grant. Her painting earned the top prize at the State of the Art Gallery’s Regional Juried Show in December 2011. That year she was also selected to participate in the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) MARK ’11 competitive professional development program. She is currently living and painting in Ithaca, NY with her husband and two children
