known for her abstract paintings in surprising color combos, is
making an impression. Duncan depicts architecture, animals,
and the human form with her signature pixilated play on light.
“If it’s in nice light, I want to paint it,” she says. “Even if it’s an old
shoe!” Her Figure Studies collection is a grouping of small
canvases that showcase her color palette. (teilduncan.com)
