Here are a few of my favorites:
Teil Duncan | Charleston, SC.
Teil grew up in Columbus, GA. She is inspired by light, movement, surprising color combinations, social interaction, and pattern, my goal is to infuse these elements and form abstracted, pixilated compositions. No matter the subject, she strives to portray a balance of realism combined with loose abstraction. She sells paintings, prints, accessories.
