Carolyn Meyer

The artist is inspired by her daily navigation through Bay Area traffic during commuting hours. She captures the energy of the city at specific times of day and night and transfers it in abstract detail to her canvas. She paints from photographs she has impulsively shot from her car window and recreates the streets of the Bay Area and New York City. Her toothsome paint application reveals her commitment to the combination of traditional technique with contemporary subject matter, painting alleys, freeways and traffic signs in the thick impasto of the old masters.
