Johansen Newman
A Quarter to Three, Oil Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Johansen Newman paints a contemporary portrait of a tattooed man smoking and drinking by the bar. "I imagined the voice of Frank Sinatra singing 'One For My Baby' as I painted," shares Johansen. The pensive subject sits alone at a neon-lit bar asking Joe, the bartender, for one more drink while he thinks about missed connections and past love affairs. The dark background conjures up the solitude that fills many old taverns.

    Artist Comments
    The painting depicts a typical day of commuting, with passengers lost in thought or absorbed in their phones as they await their stops. The lack of direct interaction between them highlights the solitary yet collective experience of modern urban life. Their different colored attire adds vibrancy to the everyday scene.

    Artist Comments
    The artwork depicts a snapshot of modern urban life, where people on the streets are glued to their phones. Whether chatting, checking notifications, or scrolling through feeds, the scene shows how busy a city can be in the digital age. Using a harmonious palette mostly with warm orange tones, the painting exudes a vibrant and inviting atmosphere. Loose brushstrokes infuse the composition with liveliness.

    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    This painting draws inspiration from an old photograph from 1945, capturing a joyous moment of five ladies holding hands in celebration. Their faces light up with smiles and laughter, radiating an infectious delight. The contrasting colors of red and green bring a simple yet visually harmonious element to the scene.

    In their daily lives, individuals from diverse backgrounds briefly converge in a shared space as they progress toward a mutual destination.

  • Anywhere, Oil Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    In a subway station, commuters engage in various pastimes as they wait for the train to arrive. One reads a newspaper, another talks on a cell phone, while the rest occupy themselves with their thoughts. Amidst the bustle, mumbled conversations, and rumbling railway noises, the red-haired woman sits with her eyes closed, immersed in a contemplative moment.

  • Japan Japanese Garden by French naive outsider folk art primitive artist, 1975
    Located in Norwich, GB
    A perfect painting for lovers of Japan and those of primitive/naive outside art. It is a work by an internatoanlly noted extraordinary artist with an extraordinary life. Maurice LOIRAND (1922-2008) is born into a working class family in Brittany, near the Atlantic coast coast in France. He starts working as a skilled labourer in the shipyards aged 15. Aged 20, when the Nazis start to occupy the country, he joins the Resistance movement, where he meets and befriends thinkers, painters and poets. He is thus introduced to an artistic and intellectual universe far removed from the world of his origins. Loirand finds himself drawn to art, and soon dedicates all his free time to learn how to paint. Completely self taught, he soon begins to exhibit his pictures alongside high level artists. He moves to Paris in the 1950s, and - although still working as a technician - paints all night. He finally becomes a full time artist in 1968. International travel and a multitude of exhibitions follow. He exhibits in Brazil, Argentina, and with Jean Tiroche Gallery in New York, among others. His work is now shown alongside works by Leger, Matisse and Picasso. The Collector's Guild New York Ltd commissions Maurice Loirand for several works of lithographic art. Loirand discovers Japan in the early 1970s, and decides to stay for 18 years. He marries Kazué SHIMOTORI, a Japanese poet...
