About the Item
Artist Comments
The photographs that form the head of this catlike creature are images of the carousel from the amusement park Idora Park in Youngstown, Ohio that is long gone. Floating behind it, painted in gold, are important dates in American history of the seventies and early eighties, about the time that this park was dying. The artwork has been mounted on 12" x 8" foam board for stability.

- Envy, Original PaintingBy Sharon SiebenLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Sharon Sieben paints a woman in the foreground, keenly observing the other pair in the background. Minimal representation and primitive paintwork constitute the conversational display. With her hand on her hip, the main subject implies an air of conflict. "She is not included in the conversation," says Sharon. The piece makes the viewer question the engaging narrative between the characters.About the Artist
Sharon Sieben prefers working in a loose, fluid technique and finds inspiration in the most unexpected things. Her parents bought her a set of oil paints when she was ten years old and it sparked her love of art. She especially admires the work of Impressionist artists such as Paul Cezanne because of how they broke tradition. When she's not making art, she enjoys reading and playing classical guitar...Category21st Century and Contemporary Outsider Art Mixed Media
