Denise Landis is an Arizona acrylic painter that sees the world
through a "Pointillism Veil". She looks for subjects to paint by their
primary and complementary colors. In her mind, "I can't see one
without the other". Her paintings are built on the principles of
Classical Pointillism, but for each painting, she uses different sized dots, dabs, or strokes to vary her
pieces into what she terms "Modified Pointillism".
Originally,
Denise started painting with "dots" via cans of spray paint. However,
she soon grew tired of leaning forward to paint canvases on the ground
and the smelly fumes didn't help. In early 2000, she reverted back to
painting with a brush on a vertical canvas. Now, she incorporates
musical rhythms and repetitive beats to maintain a steady movement
around the canvas.
The Denise Landis art studio, known as
"Landisworks", is located in a primitive desert community outside the
Phoenix metro area. Denise's works are primarily shown in galleries
and art centers around the Southwest so the opportunity to display art works
with so many other artists in Atlanta motivated her involvement with
this exciting project.
