“When all of the necessary elements come together, spontaneous combustion occurs,” states abstract painter, Aleta Pippin. Her paintings are created – through the energy and love of the process, through the music emanating from her ipod, from the amazing color that is instinctual – all come together in a spontaneous combustion that is a work of art.

Pippin’s show (early October) was a fun and successful event. Several of her paintings were sold. View highlights.

The Santa Fean Magazine’s preview states – Pippin’s paintings are, in a word, spontaneous. Wild brush strokes, impasto, and dripped paint express a sense of freedom, rhythm, and surprise. Pippin states, “My paintings are about spirituality and purposeful emotional intensity.”
