Rhythm and Pattern
Lynne Miller Jones and James Bowden
Lynne Miller Jones explores the boundaries between realism and abstraction in images of the natural world. From afar, her paintings appear realistic, sometimes photographic, but up close they also become about the oil paint itself and the variety of ways she applies it. Her current work is focused on water and the subtle interplay of light, color, and pattern, whether in a calm setting or during one of the frequent flood events impacting humans all over our warming planet.
James Eli Bowden is captivated by irregular, random relationships and how they shape everyday life. Rather than filtering out unrelated visual information, he embraces it—transforming the unexpected into paintings. Each of his works begins with a small-scale study, where composition and color choices are determined. These studies are created using collage—a playful, intuitive process that mirrors the unpredictability of life.
