About the Item
"After years of nature-based artwork, in Spring 2020 I became an Anthomaniac. Covid was raging in NYC so I retreated with my family Northwest Connecticut. Nature, for so many of us, became hugely important during isolation. It was exhilarating to see the minute changes of the seasons especially the first blooms of Spring. All the foliage had names and provenances! A rare few were native wildflowers but many were world travelers. While the pandemic was raging we weren’t allowed to travel but the foliage that I saw around me represented the gardens of the world: peonies from Eurasia, tulips from Turkey, nasturtiums from Mexico, searching for the native poppy, delphinium and columbine. In my garden I cultivated co-existence between native and non-native species. My watercolor collages feel like collaborations with mother nature. I paint from living, scent emitting wild flowers or ones that I’ve grown in my garden. It’s exciting: I have to work fast, they don’t last. I want to use the actual plantsso I press them yielding unpredictable impossibly fragile collage elements. Photography, fabric and other elements blur the distinction between the real and the artificial. Is there any place on the planet where man hasn’t impacted nature? I want to draw attention to the beauty, power and fragility of nature and the important role we have in protecting it." - Marilla Palmer

- Almost (Colorful Gestural Abstract Islamic Grid Pattern Painting on Paper)By Anne FranceyLocated in Hudson, NYColorful abstract painting with geometric details in bright hues of grays, blacks and reds "Almost", painted by Anne Francey in 2018 Mixed media on Masonite 8 x 8 x inches, 12 x 12 x 2 inches framed Custom Blonde wood frame Excellent condition, signed verso Ready to hang Anne Francey has been working with subject matter inspired by nature for most of her artistic career. Since the pandemic, this focus has become ever more apparent as her new acrylic paintings on paper demonstrate her intuitive process of reinterpreting literal subjects like leaves, flowers, birds, or bugs into vibrant worlds of layered color. She begins by drawing from life but then allows fluctuating colors, traces of the hand, and evidence of the physical medium to be introduced as the composition evolves and finds its final imprint on the surface. The spontaneity of her process welcomes the unknown, she explains: “The things that moved me first…might have become by now just a faint whispering. But I know that a story is being told, even if I don’t understand yet all the words.” About the artist: Anne Francey was born in 1956 in Grandson, Switzerland. She attended the Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Lausanne (ECBA) from 1976 to 1981, where she received a diploma of Fine Arts in painting. In 1981, she moved to New York where she attended the School of Visual Arts and the graduate program of Fine Arts at Hunter College. She graduated in 1987 with a Master of Fine Arts (MFA).
