Faith
Acrylic on canvas

Roberto Mendez is a Central Valley artist that paints in oil. In this particular painting, he paints a figurative element in a very loose and expressive way that mimics mid-century avant-garde expressionist style. Visually abrasive and obscured in darkness, Roberto creates emotionally charged artwork that incorporates his cultural heritage and his experience living as a Mexican-American.

“Blue Gray People” by Rich Sigberman at www.paolomejia.com

Blue Gray People
Watercolor and collage on paper
19” x 24”

Rich Sigberman is a North Bay artist who works with watercolor. His early body of work are reminiscent of early modernist painters. Rich is attempting to maintain a continuity with the past but evolving by altering the geometric cubist style to a more organic based cubism.

In this particular piece, he used cool toned color scheme, with hints of warm accents to create interest in areas, without sacrificing the feel of the color schemata. The transparent effects of watercolor creates a sense of depth and dimension with varying value ranges. His organic evolving elements is spontaneous and energetic that is hinting an expressionistic overtones.

Rich further evolves the concept by adding collaged elements on the painting making it even more interesting visually.

Fundraising/donation to Bantay Bata (Child Watch)

The Paolo Mejia Art Gallery and Design Studio is asking everyone to join us to help fund raise for a good cause by purchasing art from our featured artists’ gallery. Percentage of the proceeds will be donated to our selected non-profit foundation. The non-profit foundation that the gallery is supporting is called Bantay Bata (Child Watch). Bantay Bata (Child Watch) is a non-profit foundation that was established to rescue abused, abandoned and dislocated children living in the Philippines.

The art gallery is helping to fund raise to rehabilitate an old, worn down, dilapidated center that’s in a dire need of repair for their rescued children. While the center is being used for shelter for rescued children, keeping up with the cost of maintaining the facility has been tough with lack of funding. So, in the past years, the center has been braking down due to lack of funds to keep it maintained. In much ado, the children’s foundation and gallery’s goal is to raise up to $80K in order to fix the entire center. With the funding, it will help fix broken and rusted windows, cracked and chipped walls, torn and holed ceilings inappropriate for living conditions. We ask everyone, your friends, family and anyone else that can lend a hand to help raise fund for a great cause.

If you are interested in purchasing art visit our site at www.paolomejia.com. Or, if you can lend a hand by donating in monetary value please contact us at paolomejia@hotmail.com or contact JoAnn Kyle at ABS-CBN Bantay Bata Foundation International: JoAnn_Kyle@abs-cbn.com. Any help will make a difference in the lives of these rescued children. Thank you for your time.

“Horizontal Tapestry” by Erica Steiner at www.paolomejia.com

Horizontal Tapestry
Oil and gold leafing on canvas
12″ x 12″

Erica Steiner is a mix media artist that works with oil and gold leaf foiling. Her work delves in the innate impulse of humanity that deals with repetition and ornamentation. She uses repetition and ornamentation to indicate man’s impulse to material excess. Material excess is man’s language to express and identify who they are and how they integrate in society. Erica’s insight into man’s ability to make decorative art is profoundly influenced by historic folk and conventional art making. The nuances that makes repetition interesting is what strikes Erica to make her delightful decorative artwork.

Erica Steiner's artwork are for sale and can be also viewed at www.paolomejia.com. For inquiries contact us at paolomejia@hotmail.com or visit us at our on-site art gallery in San Francisco, California.

“Providence” by Jeff Hemming at www.paolomejia.com

Providence
Oil on canvas
50″ x 60″

Jeff Hemming is a Bay Area artist who paints in oil and creates a complex work of art. The style of work he makes falls in a maximalist genre. Jeff’s work shows a hyper-exuberant and complex overlaying of converging elements in an entropic manner. In Jeff’s work, the elements are images of materials that connotes society’s excess, and in addition, he amalgamates the concept of the ever changing macro/micro-relations between humanity and his environment.

Jeff Hemming's artwork are for sale and can be also viewed at www.paolomejia.com. For inquiries contact us at paolomejia@hotmail.com or visit us at our on-site art gallery in San Francisco, California.
