About the Item

Desertscape #5, Original Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Landscape Painting, 2022 14" x 17" (HxW) Acrylic on Paper Hand-signed and dated by the artist. This abstract expressionist work by artist Simona Gocan is caught between a depiction of the American Southwest landscapes and a full abstraction. I imagine this composition is similar to what would result if you asked Mark Rothko and Cy Twombly to collaborate on a composition featuring the desert. Large washes of rich earth tone colors are broken up by a scribbling effect, alluding to grasses obscuring the view of the desert horizon. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: "Desertscape #5" is part of a series of abstract landscapes created in 2022. Nature has always been my main point of reference. I paint from memory, I'm more interested in creating the atmosphere and the emotion I felt when I was in a specific place. 14x17 in/each, original acrylic on paper, signed on the front, unframed. About the Artist: Simona is a Romanian-American artist currently living in Arizona. She received her BFA with honors (1997) from the University of Arts and Design, Cluj, Romania, where she majored in Fine Art Photography. She continued her studies as a recipient of a scholarship for studies in set, costumes and lighting design, at Teatro alla Scala, Milan, Italy (1999-2001). She has exhibited in numerous solo and group shows in Romania, Italy, Chile and the U.S. After living in Europe, the Middle East and South America, Simona moved to Arizona in December of 2015. Her work includes paintings, drawings, ceramics and textiles. She finds inspiration in nature, which she reconstructs either by memory or by combining pictures she takes in her travels. She is also influenced by minimalist sculpture, land art, architecture and design.

  • Sandbank, abstract art, landscape art, seascape art, original painting
    By Jon Rowland
    Located in Deddington, GB
    Jon Rowland: 'As the tide recedes sometimes it leaves small sand spits. The Scottish coast offers opportunities to make a quick sketch that can be worked on in the studio.' Discover new paintings by Jon Rowland and his abstract expressionism with Wychwood Art. Each work has been carefully selected by Deborah Allan our Chief Art Curator. Wychwood Art have exhibited Jon Rowland in London during a pop-up exhibition of theirs at the Darren Baker Gallery. His paintings have been displayed at the Royal Academy and at the Berthold and Darren Baker Gallery in London. He has also exhibited in group exhibitions at Linacre and Green Colleges, at Swann Gallery in Woodstock, and with Wychwood Art at Battersea Art Fair. He was one of six contemporary artists who took part in an exhibition of views of Blenheim Palace, juxtaposing the original visions with today's, as part of the celebration of the 300th anniversary of Capability Brown's birth. Solo exhibitions have been at the Said Business School, Wolfson College in Central Oxford, and most recently at the Sewell Centre Art Gallery and Cornerstone Art Centre in Oxfordshire, and the Boiler Room Gallery in Central Oxford. Through Wychwood Art, he has carried out several large scale commissions for private clients. Jon comments: Painting is a journey. One starts at one place - the blank canvas, and hopefully ends at a resolution. Sometimes one gets lost. My aim in this journey is to create original, contemporary art that is grounded in place. Chance and opportunity are the travelling companions; but the art is to know when the journey is complete. I tend to work in series, with references to locations that are abstracted, reflecting on themes of colour, movement and space. In some themes I use concepts...
