Abstract Imagery Series

Bold, layered compositions where color, line, and form collide. This series explores abstraction at its core — intuitive, dynamic, and open to interpretation.

Blossoms Series

A vibrant reimagining of florals through abstraction. These paintings transform petals, stems, and bouquets into expressive shapes and luminous color fields. The result is joyful, energetic works that bring the essence of flowers to life without being bound to realism.

Formation Series

Delicate layers of color and shape come together in playful, organic arrangements. These works explore rhythm, movement, and balance, where translucent forms overlap to create harmony between structure and spontaneity.

Fractured Flowers

In this signature series, Alison magnifies florals into luminous, abstract forms that break apart and reassemble in unexpected ways. Large-scale canvases and vibrant palettes give each piece an explosive energy, turning familiar blooms into powerful, contemporary statements.

Scenery Series

Inspired by the mountains and landscapes of Western North Carolina, this series reimagines nature through expressive abstraction. Layered colors, soft edges, and shifting light transform familiar scenery into dreamlike, atmospheric compositions that feel both grounded and ethereal.
