I am an expressive abstract artist. I grew up in southern Connecticut with easy access to New York City with all its artistic and cultural influences. I specialize in colorful and emotionally rich expressionist paintings using acrylics and mixed media.
My paintings are about the harmony of colors and the feelings that they provoke. To me, colors have a language. They speak to one another. My process is to create a dance of colors that create a sense of intimacy and wonder for the viewer. By painting in a non-representational way it allows the viewer to bring their personal experiences to the canvas. The painting then becomes theirs not mine.
I have attended abstract painting retreats, abstract painting workshops. I painted with a small group of abstract artists every week under the guidance of a mentor for a number of years. I was a member of the Experimental Group of artists at the Rockport Art Museum and have been juried into numerous shows. I had the opportunity to do a residency at the Vermont Studio Center, the largest international artists and writers’ residency program in the United States. Later, I was one of 35 artists selected by Vermont Studio Center to be part of the 35th Anniversary Vermont Alumnx Exhibition. I was chosen by ‘All She Makes” to be part of their international curated gallery of women artists.
My father, George Loh, was an illustrator and fine artist. He is well known for his full-page sports figures in Sports Illustrated for Equitable Life. He was honored by The Library of Congress for his illustrations in the book, The Allagash, as part of The Rivers of America Series to mention a few
