Parking Lot Gallery

Colleen Mulligan is an artistic biologist of sorts and she happens to be  studying an unexplored island where surreal creatures populate the landscape.  This little critter (still unclassified) was found passionately floating atop a pitch black sea.  Luckily, Colleen was the first person to document the discovery.  Her ability to paint androgynous looking sacks, glands and creases is unmatched by anyone.  All the colors and shadows are tactfully blended to match each sensual shade perfectly.  This painting deserves to be on the cover of nature magazine.

Ellen Hallie Schiff’s Independence Day is half a femptosecond after a cataclysmic reaction.   And its the only remaining proof.  This one image is frozen in time only moments before a magnificent series of events which tend to follow this sort of spectacle.  All the chaos  is subtly blended together; leaving each speck purposefully critical in maintain the illusion of a nonrepresentational abstraction.

Luke Jackson’s Hats and Evil is a wickedly mesmerizing quasi surrealistic diner where supervillians come to eat fourth meal.  I don’t know which shady character scares me most.  I’m also concerned that Doll Face’s plate is still empty.  He’s got a short fuse and his bull headed friend can’t decide what to eat.  I can see the confusion in his face, he still doesn’t know.  Of course, compared to the Big Schnoz everyone takes forever.  His mouth starts watering from a mile away.  Finally, it looks like waiters coming back but it appears he forgot the coffee.

Benjamin Bublick uses his unique painting style to create fluid motion, strong textures and vivid colors.  His entry, Water Giraffe, captures a somewhat comical and abstract interpretation of the recognizable creature.  Exhaling a mist of water from his nostrils, the visibly wet giraffe appear triumphant in his escape from the water.
