About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Faye Vander Veer depicts a small group of people gathered around the statue of Venus at the Louvre in Paris. Sunlight streams from the left casting shadows onto the patterned floor, providing a warm peacefulness to the painting. The visitors keep their hushed discussions between themselves. "You could almost hear a pin drop," says Faye. "I purposely kept the colors soft and muted in keeping with the mood in the room."
About the Artist
Artist Faye Vander Veer seeks out moments with engaging narratives and captures them with an impressionist style. Her dramatic use of color, texture, light and shadow lend a glowing quality, creating an energy all their own. While using her own photographs as a general reference, it is her sensory memory of the event and her emotional reaction that is conveyed on the canvas, causing the viewer to be transported to another time and place. “Painting becomes a language I use to express my emotional response to what is before me and share my experience of the subject with others,“ says Faye.
