JAYJAY is proud to present The Color of Rhythm, new paintings by Sacramento artist, Mark Emerson and Flowers and Water photographic images by Penny Olson, an artist new to the gallery from Vallejo, CA.

Mark Emerson is a Sacramento favorite, at least for those of us drawn to abstraction with color, and its mysterious attributes, as a primary motive. A master at making paint shift and vibrate in his well-planned rectangles, which are most often squares, Emerson once again displays his virtuosity in these new paintings on panel, canvas and paper! The show title The Color of Rhythm refers to Mark’s love of jazz and how the music correlates with the paintings he makes; the colors moving slowly and then fast and in patterns. This new body of work is challenging---just like a modern jazz tune can be. They sometimes border on being too active, too bright, while seducing us with combinations of tone that are dissident and then they turn and please with resolve.

Penny Olson is making some amazing photographs of her own Vallejo garden and Northern California waterways, but the images do not resemble the subjects, other than the tone and color. These are abstractions created digitally and are primarily presented laminated between acrylic, which magnifies the image giving dimension to the photograph. All in square format, these very contemporary objects have the nuance of great painting, and the graphic quality of a photo. This is Olson’s first exhibit at JAYJAY.
