Susan Gale
Isle of Joy - Original Pointillist Textured Artwork

2024

About the Item

Susan Gale's work explores the nostalgia of community by highlighting the juxtaposition between the peaceful, quiet, mystery of light, and the rush of visually invoked sensation. She explores the sensibility that an image evokes through her manipulation of form and surface texture achieved with textured pointillism. Gale works with distinct color palettes which allow for the exaggeration of each painting's elements of color, framing, and thematic components. This original 12 inch square painting is created with acrylic paint on birch panel. By employing rich hues and playful manual pixelation, Gale seeks to investigate the space between abstraction and representation that allows for a rich direct language of mark-making. The sides of this artwork are painted black and it does not require framing. This artwork is signed by the artist on the back. Convenient local Los Angeles area shipping. Affordable Continental U.S. and global shipping are also available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Susan Gale was born in Stephenville, Newfoundland in 1977. Susan studied painting at Nova Scotia College of Art and Design from 2000 to 2004 and received her BFA. Susan moved to Toronto in 2005. Her practice involves capturing cityscapes or images of everyday places and elevating mundane visual prose into a symphony of color. Gale works the images through a lens of emotion and brings beauty and form back to their most simple compositional elements. Her works have been exhibited and collected throughout Canada and the United States.

  • In The Pink Daybreak
    By Kathleen Keifer
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Kathleen Keifer's original artworks represent one of the most significant expressions of New California Realism. Keifer brings a fresh perspective to her colorful scenes of everyday life in the sun along the Pacific coastline (and beyond). Her detailed paintings show us the breathtaking California scenery with its recognizable elements in a new light and with a keen eye for clever composition and layered colors. Her modern landscapes and sublime seascapes capture an impressive visceral visual. This one-of-a-kind 30-inch high by 15-inch wide and 1.5-inch deep original artwork is a composition created with acrylic paint on canvas. It is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The sides are painted as a continuation of the front and it does not require framing. It is signed by the artist on the front of the artwork. A certificate of authenticity issued by the gallery is included. Convenient local Los Angeles area shipping. Affordable Continental U.S. and global shipping also available. Kathleen Keifer is a California-based internationally collected artist. Her paintings invite the viewer to consider the complex relationship between time and timelessness. It is the sheer visual interaction between the elements, taken in their bare simplicity that interests her. Water, sky, and architecture change their appearance with the shifts in weather and light. Her broken brushstrokes depict light and color in luminous waves, dissolving form into a shimmering surface of vibrant light. For her, painting captures the very essence of time and its passage. While painting landscapes she became fascinated with isolating the objects in her paintings. She believes that actual sites and places have individual magic. The goal is to take objects from popular culture and paint them in a new context. She began to paint the silhouette of the Life Guard Tower more as a pop art symbol than a landscape element. With a high level of technical virtuosity, Keifer creates a new sense of reality with textures and colors that seem to add lighting effects and distinct shadows, confronting the viewer with new interpretations of familiar objects. Born and raised in Chicago, Kathleen Keifer is a second-generation artist. Her mother, also a fine artist, exposed Keifer to the world of art and supervised her training from a very early age. This legacy continues today as Keifer closely nurtures the development of the artistic leaning in each of her three daughters, inspiring a third generation of female artists. Her works are represented by Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles and have been exhibited and collected internationally, including Chicago, New York, and London.
