Large Abstract Paintings by Heather Bernek Guptill

Musings from the Nurses Room

Above "Stay Awake" 38" x 43"

Below: "Field of Color" 38" x 55"

Working from a small studio, once the Nurses Room, in a converted school in Kittery, Maine, Heather Guptill lets her instincts guide her artwork. The results are raw, deeply visceral, mostly non-representational, and full of emotion and color.

 

On view at Axel's are large-scale original acrylic works on ram board - a material choice that supports the artists intention of exploration and spontaneity without the restriction or seriousness of the typical and expected.

"My paintings come from deep within me. Much of my process lacks any formal or conscious decision making. My creation of color and line comes from what feels “right."

-Heather Bernek Guptill

"There are no rules. That is how art is born, how breakthroughs happen. Go against the rules or ignore the rules. That is what invention is about."

-Helen Frankenthaler
