Rita Kenyon
I’m driven by color—it excites and inspires me. As I paint, I’m conscious of the energies that colors possess, especially as agents of healing that can transform us. Color can change how we feel.

Volta10: Patrick Jacobs
Patrick Jacobs intentionally blurs boundaries between the traditional artistic media of painting, sculpture, and photography in his works. At the same time, they present the viewer with a spatial and perceptual conundrum; we are drawn into a space at once determinate and infinite, natural and contrived, prosaic and otherworldly.
