First Friday Art Walk – January 2023

Discover Art Downtown at our Artist Reception at NexLynx Gallery of Arts, Friday January 6th from 5pm to 8pm. View the abstract artwork of Lori Warren, during our First Friday Art Walk.
All of Lori’s life, she has studied and loved all forms of art. As an artist, Lori has experimented in many styles; minimalist, impressionist, cubist, pop art and collage. Painting human and animal portraits, landscapes, flowers as well as fantasy, Lori has dabbled in a variety of mediums. Working with watercolor, oil, digital art, pencil, acrylic, mixed media, fiber art, photography, and ‘found’ art, her prevailing style now is abstract acrylic.

Lori finds creativity in the freedom of the abstract form, as she translates the feelings to her paintings. Many of her paintings are nonrepresentational, allowing the viewer to interpret them on their own. Her intention is not to tell the viewer what to see, but to help them feel something and encourage creativity and thought.

Her art is very personal and difficult to share, however, in recent years, Lori has found enjoyment by watching how her pieces affect others. Believing art is a reflection of life, emotion and imagination, and thus allowing contemplation on our feelings, learning to see things in different ways, and thereby bringing us together.
