Maria C. Bernhardsson
Frida Khalo's House - Watercolor Painting

2024

About the Item

Maria C. Bernhardsson is a colorful artist who lives and paints in Sweden. Most of her works are influenced by the architecture and geometry of houses. Bernhardsson travels the world photographing and sketching houses to use as inspiration for her canvas and paper artworks. Within her artworks, Bernhardsson plays with the colors and shadows of individual houses in conjunction with the overall feeling of gazing at a collection of these buildings. She then adds playful details such as flowers and animals to make the houses feel more like homes. This 28 inch high by 20 inch wide one-of-a-kind watercolor painting on paper is signed by the artist near the lower right corner. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included with this unique artwork. Even with her focus on bold colors and combinations, all of her artworks convey a level of warmth, comfort and familiarity. The abstract layering of the subjects within her artworks create the ambiguity which leads to the nearly universal familiarity. Maria often paints in strong colors, in many nuances and a lot of layers. She describes it like this: “The colorway is very important to me when I paint. I love to combine as many colors as possible at the same time. Contrasts, strong colors/ bright pastels, plain/structured, dark/bright in a cubistic, skewed, dreamy and naive way.” REPRESENTATION Artspace Warehouse, Los Angeles, CA EXHIBITIONS 2023 “Urban Ecologies: Cities Are Built for Art” Artspace Warehouse, Los Angeles, CA 2022 Affordable Art Fair New York Partille Castle, Partille, Sweden 2021 Artspace Warehouse, Los Angeles, CA Affordable Art Fair New York 2020 LA Art Show, Los Angeles, CA Art Palm Springs, Palm Springs, CA Affordable Art Fair New York 2019 Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong Artspace Warehouse, Los Angeles, CA Affordable Art Fair New York Kunstwarenhaus, Zurich, Switzerland 2018 Partille Castle, Partille, Sweden Galleri Puckeln, Stockholm, Sweden 2017 River City Gallery, Gothenburg, Sweden Konstriket, Sävedalen, Sweden Nääs fabriker, Tollered, Sweden 2016 Konstriket, Sävedalen, Sweden 2015 Galleri Arken, Gothenburg, Sweden 2014 Nääs fabriker, Tollered, Sweden Galleri Löfström, Hagfors, Sweden Galleri Arken, Gothenburg, Sweden Konstriket, Sävedalen, Sweden The Nordic Council of Ministers, Copenhagen, Denmark 2013 Swedish television SVT, Galleri Media, Gothenburg, Sweden Konstriket, Sävedalen, Sweden 2012 Kulturhallen, Mölndal, Sweden Konstriket, Sävedalen, Sweden 2011 Galleri Backlund, Gothenburg, Sweden 2009 Partille Castle, Partille, Sweden 2007 Särö Konstgalleri, Särö, Sweden Galleri Saltön, Grundsund, Sweden TV & FILM ROAR, Apple TV For The People, ABC The Laundromat, Netflix Good Time Charlie, TBS 911, Fox
