Ronnie Gold is a pastelist and painter, creating her art in an abstract expressionist style. Her passion for color led her initially to pastels with a vast range of colors making the process of painting spontaneous and fluid. She creates her bold, energetic and colorful pieces of art using loose, abstract strokes of color, mark making and gestural lines to build surface and composition. Experimenting in different styles is what keeps her work fresh and exciting. Visit www.ronniegold.com for more information about Ronnie’s work.
