One of LA's most talented young artist, Eric R. Doolin, has been invited to represent the USA at the Florence Biennale. If you love art, and happen to be traveling to Italy this winter you might want to add this exhibit to your agenda.


If you're staying local and would like to see some of Eric's work please contact The Fractal Gallery to arrange a visit. Either way these stunning paintings are well worth the purchase for serious art collectors.

(December 2012)...Two wall-size paintings, which define Doolin’s current work, will be on exhibition December 3rd -11th, at the 2011 Florence Biennale, a prestigious show of contemporary artists from around the world.

The large-scale paintings of up-close organic forms take the viewer on a cosmic tour of the inner workings of orchids or the infinite unfolding of succulent leaves. However, they are anything but your typical florals. These works approach beauty in a uniquely conscious and deliberate way. The work emphasizes the sensuality and mathematical design of nature. The use of translucent colors seems to shine from within, as if lit from behind like stained glass. Doolin is compelled by a philosophical take on the relevance of nature in our visual and spiritual lives. Plant life and seashells are motifs of microcosms, which lend themselves generously to painting. The surfaces become bold landscapes of subtle and sexy curvature.



In the marketing for eco-friendly furniture...while Eric’s oil paintings explore the nature of nature, his ecologically conscious furniture conserves it. His green furniture is made of hemp board; glass, stone, soy-based foam, hemp fabric, and areas designated for living plants. His paintings are striking and a fill a room with an array of vibrant colors, and sense of calmness, while his furniture designs combine beauty and comfort at it’s finest.

Eco-Luxury designs: Three designers you should know

Janna Phillips, Eric Doolin and Jenda Michl
Three talented and creative designers on the eco-luxe scene

The ALIVE! Expo Green Pavilion/Mix Media Emmy lounge brought out a lot more than beauty and fashion this year. Janna Phillips owner/designer of Bohmod, Eric Doolin, owner/designer/artist of The Fractal Gallery, and Jenda Michl (Vertu Studio Inc) impressed guests with their unique and brilliant furniture designs made from all  eco-friendly materials. Janna Phillips, who often works together with partner Eric Doolin definitely knows how to create an eco-luxurious environment. As incredibly talented designers these two design for comfort and healthy living. On a moments notice they combined several pieces from Bohmod and The Fractal Gallery providing guests with all the comforts on home so they could get a little R & R from all the gifting and gabbing. One of my favorite things about Janna's pieces is that you can move them around easily and they're very functional. Eric's end tables and benches had mini planters built in. It was a nice indoor/outdoor touch.

Outside Jenda Michl's Flexist Bench offered guests a place to sit back and enjoy the 360 degree view from the roof top of the museum. Looks can be deceiving but this cool and unusual bench is extremely comfortable. It's perfect for anyone with eclectic taste and a large patio area. It can be designed more specific to meet your personal needs, or even made as a chaise lounge; add some pillows and you're set.
