San Luis Obisbo Art Center on December 23rd

While vacationing in the central California coast last week, we visited the Art Center in San Luis Obisbo.  I was interested in the work of Kuzana Ogg entitled "Oil."  This artist interpreted the oil rigs that line the roads into Bakersfield with symbols depicted in piping and instrumentation  diagrams from the oil industry.  She uses color with drips, splashes, scratches and abrasions in her abstract imagery.  She lives and paints in Bakersfield, was born in Bombay, India, lived with her family in England, India, New York City, and South Korea.

Here are my favorites:

"Reciprocating Compressor," oil

"Combustor"

"Compressor"

"Cone Roof Tank"

"Nitrogen Oxide Vessel"
