About the Item

Matted and Framed: artwork 8" x 10" in 20" x 20" frame with white mat. "Wanted Pearls" features a watercolor of a nude woman lounging brazenlly. Her red high heels and rococo style wig give her an air of a mistress or lover from the Renaissance era. In the background you can see her lover through the curtains. This painting is done in Rebecca Leveille's signature style with an emphasis on a color palette of pinks, oranges, lush greens. Artist Bio: Rebecca Leveille is influenced by the work of Jim Shaw, Walter Robinson and Kara Walker along with painters such as Alice Neel, Titian, Fragonard and Lautrec. Pastiche elements of iconic moments from history and pop culture play throughout her work to manipulate viewers’ expectation and identification of the current moment. Through fertile elements of symbol and sign, Leveille creates a surreal stage on which to play out the multifaceted performances of love, conflict, sensuality and sexual identity. Leveille's work has garnered praise from critics including Jerry Saltz, Walter Robinson and Peter Frank. Clearly enamored of her subjects and committed to the development of an increasingly rich palette and voluptuous drawing style, Leveille is most interested in getting these formal qualities to serve pictorial narratives without disappearing into them. She aims to balance method and material, giving equal weight to what is pictured and to how it works as a picture. Form in Leveille’s art follows fiction and function—as a result, her art proves as bracing as it is enchanting. Recent exhibitions include group shows ONE YEAR OF RESISTANCE, UPRISE/ANGRY WOMEN, SHE INSPIRES, and SECRET GARDEN: The Female Gaze on Erotica at The Untitled Space as well as exhibits HOTEL XX and EDEN, both curated by Indira Cesarine for SPRING/BREAK Art Show. Hand signed by the artist and includes a certificate of authenticity.
