Artist Statement: As a painter I have a need to present this what is next to me. I work from nature, with a theme face to face. It seems to be obvious, but for things which touching me directly I have a stronger emotions. And even if I use photography during the work, I have to made it by myself, or it have to be a picture from my environment, or other place which is connect with me. Despite using relay at work, photography is not introduction for subject at beginning. I have always been interested in the bionic structure of nature to be seen in environment or in human body. When I paint, I do not only mean to reconstruct visual shape of a representation, but most of all present its quality in terms of matter. Bionic corporality has primordial, basic properties and bears testimony to our physical existence. Bodies express mental and emotional conditions of individuals. By observing humans and nature, I strive to track down the states, which make us who we are and express our desires and fears. My works often illustrate the separation of individuals from the society and their relations with immediate environment from the angle of desires and missed opportunities.

  • Nude in French Interior - original extra large oil painting by Paula Craioveanu
    By Paula Craioveanu
    Located in Forest Hills, NY
    "Nude in French interior", in a room lighted from one side. Part of my Nude in interior series. Inspired in contrast and colors by French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Nude placed in a French palace, a sober classical interior in contrast with the modern relaxed attitude of the main character. Size is 150x150cm / 59x59in, oil on canvas. Painting was part of my solo show "Nude in Interior", March 2022. Can be shipped rolled in a tube for faster and less expensive shipping. Please inquire. "I started by painting interiors, being interested in space and perspective through my studies. These scenes evolved, when I added the human figure. I focused more on the human figure and its relation to the background. The human figure is more present than ever in my paintings now. As a woman artist I’ve been preoccupied with the female form and its imagery. One of my goals was to capture the solitary moments and the nude’s relation to the surrounding space. My interest turned from depicting the space to rendering the atmosphere and the scene as a whole, the feeling a woman adds to the environment: warmth, desire, joy, a feeling of power and control, or the opposite – sadness, despair. Here is a collection of figurative paintings, exploring the nudes in interior spaces, seeing the nudes from my perspective, as a woman artist, considering the physical and spiritual realities of a woman’s body, in a new level of intimacy. My paintings are the opposite of objectifying a woman’s or a man’s anatomy. Painted works, featuring female nudes and a also men nudes...
