Bernadette Youngquist’s Sunburstat Dawn, an abstract
composition of soft red, orange, and purple shapes that mirror the form
of cells under a microscope, helps punctuate the color story and invites
the viewer’s eye further into the gallery space. 

Bernadette Youngquist’s artwork is a stunning display of creativity and
imagination that captures the beauty and power of nature in a truly
unique way. Her use of color and texture creates a sense of depth and
richness that is both hypnotic and enthralling. Youngquist’s mastery of
detail and technique is evident in her work. The beauty and power of her
work make each a statement piece that will inspire everyone who sees
it.

Younquist’s ‘A Hold On My Heart’ combines soft and hard layers
of architectural elements through color, shape and line to convey a
sense of place. It is reminiscent of the paintings of Motherwell and the
sculptures of Henry Moore.”

In her paintings, (Youngquist) is led by the energy of colour and how shapes relate to each other. “I also find that texture evokes an emotional response.I create art because I need to manifest my ideas in a physical way. I want to put something in front of you that brings you inspiration and reminds you to take notice of the less obvious aspects of life”.
