CHALLENGING THE EDGE

I am always intrigued when I follow an artist’s body of work and then see her break away from her comfort zone of familiar materials, color palettes, applications and subject matter. I would always think, “what a courageous and difficult thing to do.” And now here I am, in the midst of my own renaissance, embracing the energy of a new inspiration. My newest series is one of exploration and experimentation and translates as excitement, magic and a new adventure.

My new abstract collection represents this new departure: a fearless sense of unknown territory. I have a fresh appreciation for color, line, texture and movement. Ironically, these abstracts have always existed in my work as a foundation for my mixed media images but now they stand alone vibrating, pulsating, reaching and swirling in a very lyrical way.

As an artist I continue to challenge my edge: In order for me to grow, I must reach beyond the familiar.

Bernard Hoyes

“I have been a creator of art, symbols of ancestral echoes since a child in Jamaica… The images I convey symbolize a culmination of these ancestral echoes brought to classical form. They are contemporary, eternal in spirit and stand as praise to our existence –past, present and future.”

At the age of nine, Bernard Hoyes’ professional art career began in his home town of Kingston, Jamaica. Bernard’s mother sold his wood carvings and watercolors to visitors at the Jamaica Tourist Board to help maintain the household and support his creative efforts.

Hoyes began his academic art education at the Institute of Jamaica. At age 15, he moved to New York to live with his father, attend school and continue his art endeavors. He studied at the Art Students League and the Vermont Academy in Saxtons River, Vermont. While studying in Vermont, his work was featured in Vermont Life, Stage IV and Vermont 70 Magazines. He was instrumental in the development of a formal art department at the Academy.

Ann Tanksley’s work tells a story. At times it is an autobiography of her inner spirit melded with her experiences and travels; at other times it is about social injustices and the universal plight of rural workers; yet others, she retells stories that have been told by others as she did in her visual interpretations of the prose of Zora Neal Hurston. She sees herself as a ”social commentator” who would like people to understand her through her work and to understand her point of view. This is perhaps why she has chosen to communicate through the figures of the painting rather though abstract expression, even though her method is not unlike that of the Abstract Expressionists.
