Ruth LaGue
Barn Red Roof, Original Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Ruth LaGue presents a sunlit barn on a clear cloudless day. Inspired by the shapes and patterns of the building, Ruth draws the viewer's attention to its details. She captures the rhythm of sunlight, forms, and shadows cast by the cool morning rays. By adding a red roof to the mainly blue and white structure, Ruth provides a delightful pop of color.


About the Artist
In her abstracted landscape paintings, Ruth LaGue pares composition down to its barest form. Through simple color, line and form, landscapes are invoked, rather than detailed. Ruth adjusts the placement of the horizon line in her paintings to suggest a range of natural formations. She stretches form, line and color to their limits, providing the least amount of visual information needed to understand the landscape. Her color palette is nuanced and each color is distinctly her own. She is deeply influenced by her childhood in Alaska and her travels to India. While in India, she found an indelible connection between the vast, wild landscape of her childhood and the limitless internal landscape of the soul. Ruth’s beautifully simplified landscapes become metaphors for the spiritual or otherworldly realms inherent in both nature and in the self.

  • Ocean View from Terrace - Diptych, Original Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    A house terrace overlooks the ocean shore, bathed in fading sunlight that stretches infinitely across the sky. The artwork deliberately shifts the horizon between the diptych, emphasizing the boundless expanse of space. The panels measure 24 inches x 30 inches and 24 inches by 20 inches, respectively.


    About the Artist
    Artist Zeynep Genc explores the interaction between modern urban landscapes and the transitions of nature in her paintings. Her subjects center around Northeastern American settings, themes related to her profession, and experiences from her travels to different countries. "As an interior architect and industrial designer, my selective perception influences how I experience the surroundings and find beauty in the synchronicity of architectural and natural elements," says Zeynep. Originally from Eskisehir, Turkey, her career spanned more than 30, during which she taught interior design at Bilkent University and Middle East Technical University, Ankara. She relocated to New Jersey in 2015 and has been painting ever since. Zeynep paints in the corner of her well-lit and organized living room, listening to Italian baroque music and enjoying a cup of coffee. She spends her summers in Bodrum, Turkey, where her house sits right next to the beautiful Aegean Sea. When not creating art, she frequents museums and galleries, prepares healthy Mediterranean meals, and enjoys quality time with her family.

This 20-inch square original painting is created with acrylic paint on canvas. It is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The artwork is signed on the back and initialed on the side. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping are available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Jonjo Elliott is a mixed-media artist working in a range of mediums, from paper and paint to skate ramps, ceramics, and chairs. Working from his studio in the UK, his vibrant works are inspired by the spaces surrounding him, and his large-scale still lives are intended to bring color and delight into the homes of his collectors. A graduate of De Montfort University, he now manages a studio in Leicester. Jonjo's immersive and lively artworks are collected extensively in the UK, the US, and throughout the world. His works have been represented by Artplex Gallery since his Los Angeles solo show in 2019.
