"Maybe It's Only Us" is a figurative painting made by Hudson Valley artist, Annika Tucksmith, in 2018. The horizontal, 24 x 32 inch oil painting pictures a young toddler with their white stuffed animal rabbit in the middle of a stormy country landscape. The young child stands slightly off balance, as if in a sleepy daze, while their toy companion dangles by their legs. The artist creates an atmosphere of mysterious and impending danger as grey storm clouds brew in the distance above the lone figure. The viewer can't help but wonder; how did the child get there and who will shelter them from the storm?
Annika Tucksmith, born in 1995, grew up in Columbia County in upstate New York and received her BA at the Connecticut College in New London, CT. She currently teaches visual art at The Albany Academy in Albany, NY.
Artist Statement:
"Influenced by coming-of-age tales in folklore and literature and the common allegories that appear in them, (feeling lost in a world that is larger than you realized, what to make of a light in the darkness, and the adventurous Quest for self-actualization), That Place Between Sleep is a collection threaded with stories. With no past nor present, these paintings exist only as a moment, a glimpse into a narrative with more questions than answers. They depict moments In-Between."

- Lotus Number Four (Hard Edge Floral Still Life Painting of Lotus Leaves)By Frank DePietroLocated in Hudson, NY30 x 24 x 1 inches oil on canvas Inspired by close observations of the natural world and encounters with still moments that give us pause. Lines, shapes and colors encountered in nature, reveal the cycles of decay and regeneration that are life’s constant state of change. The work has a quiet, meditative quality. The subject is portrayed in a manner true to their existence in a specific time and place and selected based on considerations of visual relationships to formal elements of painting. Aspects of photo realism, hard edge and color field techniques are utilized to isolate the uniqueness of the subject’s detail, as well as emphasize flatness and illusion of depth within the two-dimensional space of the painting. About the artist: Frank DiPietro was born and raised in Scranton PA. He received a Bachelor of Art from Bloomsburg University in 1997, majoring in both Painting and Ceramics with a minor in Art History. In 2000 he earned a degree in Art Education from Moore College of Art and Design while continuing his studies in painting. Frank lived in Philadelphia for twelve years painting and teaching at several museums, art centers and schools in the region. In 2010 he and his family moved to Chester County PA, where he currently resides. Frank currently teaches painting classes and workshops at the Delaware Art Museum and Longwood Gardens...Category
