Barry W. Lewis is new to the world of Abstract Expressionism. Inspired by the vibrant colors of  San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Barry was moved to express himself through the use of free form and pure color. His bold, imaginative work is constantly evolving. Spending time at his home in San Miguel, Barry flourishes in a highly creative environment where he creates some of his most exciting paintings.  When not in San Miguel, Barry and Cecilia maintain a home and studio in Bedminster, New Jersey where they are members of the Somerset Art Association.

Abstract Expressionism is a movement that can be divided into two groups: "Action Painting" typified by artists such as Pollock & de Kooning and "Color Field" painting which is primarily concerned with exploring the effects of pure color on a canvas.

Cecilia Lewis has been drawing and painting since she could hold a pencil or paint brush! She attended the Du Cret School of Art and has taken numerous classes in painting, watercolor, drawing, graphics and computer graphics. Cecilia owned and operated Cecilia Richel Design, a graphics design company for over 20 years. She continues to freelance and has recently completed several wall murals. She, like her husband Barry, is inspired by the colors and the creative energy of their home in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.She has taken many photos on their world travels and hopes to paint much of what has been captured on film. Cecilia is branching out into new areas and experimenting with acrylics. Her goal is to continue to work on residential and commercial wall interiors.

Meet Pepino!
He is our "mixed up" mutt and muse! Not sure what breeds (we have been told that there is a Chihuahaua involved some where along the line) but we love him just the same. Barry got him as a "rescue dog" a few years ago.
