Untitled, 1975, by Erma Martin Yost. Source
Trained as a painter but now working primarily with textiles, Erma Martin Yost’s website is here.
I focus primarily on the work of women artists here at Exiled Stardust. I only feature works that don’t objectify women’s bodies. I like abstract work so I feature a lot of it, but I suppose I could as easily feature realistic landscapes.
Okay, the lines are a little angular to be 100% lyrical, but close enough.
Deep, brooding, oceanic atmosphere broken up by strange angular structures that look like sticks bound together. Love the iridescent effect of the background.

This painting, whose title I don’t know, is by Arlene Isbister, an artist from the Orkney Islands in Scotland. I wanted to know more about her, but despite much Googling, I could not find any other photos of her work, except these:
It began as asubgenre of Abstract Expressionism. It was once a pejorative term but is now considered historically accurate. It involves a turning away from hard geometric shapes and thinly applied paint toward curvilinear shapes and sensuously thick paint.
