Acrylic with gold leaf on canvas, signed on the back, 2022

Coming through the dark, I stopped to take a look back at where I'd been. Shadow was deep, a beckoning coolness. I turned around and continued on. Knowing that I could be in Shadow again, I felt safe knowing that a golden Lightness awaited me.

Valerie Ostenak is a multidisciplinary artist focused on abstract/impressionism painting, and is known for her atmospheric style incorporating metal leaf. She studied painting, jewelry, and metalsmithing at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff AZ, and continued at California State University Long Beach, CA. Her professional art career has spanned 25+ years working with gallerists, private collectors, and interior designers designing and creating art for them to live with, and wear.

Internationally awarded, exhibited, and published, a few highlights include: interviewed by National Geographic and selected twice for their American Artist of the Month, invited by British automotive-maker Rolls-Royce to co-brand with them, Invited by Artistar Jewels to exhibit her jewelry during Milan Fashion week four years running, selected by The UN Environment Programme and the Climate Museum to have one of her paintings reproduced as a 5'x8' flag to fly over Rockefeller Center alongside 192 other internationally-chosen artists. Most recently she has partnered with a clothing design company in Montreal Canada for her paintings to be reproduced on their clothing.

“Transformation. Movement. Flow . . . and the Energy within. The energy that exists in the visible, and the invisible as thought: its effect on us, and how we affect it down to the quantum level. This is what I and my work are all about. The pieces I create speak to hope, change, enlightenment, transforming and becoming better, weathering the storms and learning to swim within the chaos."
