RitaI strive for a dynamic relationship among color, line, shape and space, and I am interested in patterns of color, which I weave into my paintings. I work in oil on canvas because I love the buttery fluidity of oils and the give of the canvas, and I draw with my brush as I like the calligraphy of the first stroke. My paintings are a colorful celebration of ordinary everyday life, and my inspiration comes from our daily surroundings, whether it is nature, architecture, still lifes or people.

A native of Cleveland, Ohio, I have spent most of my life in the area, and attended the Cleveland Institute of Art from 1985 through 1990.

I have shown in many exhibitions and competitive shows including solo exhibits at Kendal at Oberlin, Solon Center for the Arts, Dobama Theater, Malvina Freedson Gallery, and the Gallery at Vase to Vase. I was accepted in The Butler Institute of American Art National Midyear Painting Exhibition and in Ohio State University, Ashland University, Art Design Consultants, and Cleveland Clinic juried exhibitions. I am part of Sherwin-Williams’ mural in the West Bank of the Flats, and two of my paintings are on exhibit at the Governor’s Office in Columbus, Ohio. My work was published in Cleveland Galleries guide of Cleveland Magazine; 52 Weeks 52 Works calendar of Academy Graphics Communications, Inc., and MUSE Magazine. My work was also seen at Case Western Reserve University, Baldwin-Wallace University, Trinity Cathedral, and City Artists at Work exhibitions, and as Artist of the Week on Channel 8 TV News.

Christmas in the Share-house by Mandy Partridge

I spent fifteen years celebrating Christmas in share-houses around Brisbane, Australia. As a poor student, I rented rundown Queenslanders with two, three or four friends, so I could still afford food after rent and bills. I rode my bicycle to uni, work or the grocery shop

Driving the Loop by J.M. McNeely-Kirwan

Manny drove through the night on a narrow highway that curved constantly to the right, threading its way through a forest. The trees hung low over the tarmac like they wanted to take back every square inch.

Panic Attack 2 by Romana Capek

Gray morning. The clouds did not lift as the forecast had predicted. I spent a sleepless night because I drank a cup of a strong black tea earlier in the evening. I look at my watch on the nightstand; it shows nine o’clock. I am cold and trying to get warm under a lightweight summer blanket.

Life With You by Kristina Pudlewski

It was December 23rd, only two days before Christmas. Children play outside in the snow and families rush into stores to get last minute items for their holiday gatherings. But I am in the hospital with you, Max, my love.
