Ann Barbieri - Wild Ride

Deanna Schwartzberg
Dream Traveler
Mixed media on canvas, 78" x 72"
Figure as Metaphor series

In her latest series, Deanna Schwartzberg uses the human form as an expression of an elemental force such as dawn or dusk, or as the subject of a dreamlike state. Through an irregularly shaped canvas of multiple panels, she creates an abstracted environment from which the figure emerges. In Dream Traveler, as in all works in this series, the figure is seen as rising, falling, floating or suspended, thus leaving the realm of reality and taking on a more cosmic relevance.

Ms. Schwartzberg has been teaching abstract painting in the Washington area for many years. She graduated from New York University with a BS in Art Education and went on to study painting at the Art Students League of New York with a student of Hans Hofman. Deanna has exhibited widely and her work can be found in numerous collections both public and private.

Her work is featured at Ozmosis Gallery April 5-May 7.
