FABIOLA GIRONI
VoyageLA - Life & Work with Fabiola Gironi of Los Angeles March 10, 2025 "My work blends autobiography, history, and imagination—highly chromatic still life paintings where acrylics, oils, and embroidery come together in layered narratives. I weave everyday objects with ancient Italian artifacts, like Maiolica vessels, to explore femininity, motherhood, and identity. My paintings exist in that space where the ordinary meets the mythical—where a simple fruit holds centuries of symbolism, and a vessel becomes a metaphor for the body and memory." - Fabiola Gironi VIEW EXHIBITION |

CARLA FALB
Canvas Rebel - Meet Carla Falb February 27, 2025 "More than twenty years later, I am still making paintings based on roller coaster rides, although my emphasis has shifted to nighttime imagery. My attraction to light streaming through the darkness dates back to my childhood. I have vivid memories of riding in the backseat of our car at night, transfixed by the white and red car lights speeding by, as well as sitting on my father’s shoulders at a crowded Fourth of July fireworks display, mesmerized by the explosions of lights in the sky." - Carla Falb VIEW ARTICLE |

Nous-Ance - Inside Kevin's Studio: Where Light, Texture, and Experimentation Converge February 10, 2025 | By Clarisse Abelarde "Typically my painting ideas come from casual everyday moments. Something may catch my eye and make me feel a way I can’t capture with a photograph. The painting is then all about trying to get to the essence of that original thing I had in my head. Sometimes it takes many versions and layers of paint to get it there and unfortunately I’ve had to kill off several dear figures in the process." - Kevin Yaun VIEW ARTICLE |
