Artists by rule are an evolving species.  We are ever learning, ever reaching for the next inspiration, the next way of seeing.  So when I see an artist who has already been featured putting out exciting new work, I can’t help but want to share it with you!  Miami Beach artist Yolanda Sanchez is showing a new body of work at J. Johnson Gallery in Jacksonville Beach, FL continuing her explorations of the “felt experience” in paintings that feel light as air.

Taking cues from calligraphy, Asian art, and poetry, Sanchez’s paintings seem almost short hand notes of the visual stories happening in nature.  Flowers unfolding, dripping dew, colors tumbling one over another.  These new compositions are lively but deliberate, each stroke carrying with it life and meaning.

To see more of Yolanda Sanchez‘s latest work, please visit her website.  If you happen to be in North Florida, be sure to stop by J. Johnson Gallery in Jacksonville Beach to breathe in these works for yourself.  Her solo show, There is Only the Dance is up at the gallery until May 15th.
