Diana Elena Chelaru
Lady with Dog, Original Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Diana Elena Chelaru exhibits an expressionist portrait of a lady with her dog. She caresses the pup as it sleeps by her side. Geometric shapes adorn her elegant garnet dress, guiding the viewer's eyes through the composition. The background of gradated blue equilateral shapes dynamically complements the atmosphere of tenderness.


About the Artist
Artist Diana Chelaru paints colorful expressionist interpretations of human emotion. “Art is a means of communication, it is how I express my thoughts, hopes, regrets, and joys,” says Diana. She experiments with working on large-scale paintings using the visual language of form, lines, and color to create compositions that exist only in her imagination. Growing up in Romania, she draws inspiration from Byzantine mosaics as well as Gustav Klimt’s subject matter and use of decorative patterns. She received her BFA in Painting from George Enescu Art University and finished her MA in Art History from Queens College. Diana simply goes with the flow rather than dwelling on the formulaic process. It all depends on how and what she feels at the moment. She indulges in music while she creates her work.

  • Wild Beauty, Original Signed Contemporary Farmhouse Equestrian Painting
    Located in Boston, MA
    Wild Beauty, Original Contemporary Farmhouse Equestrian Painting 24" x 18" x 0.75" (HxWxD) Acrylic on Canvas Hand-signed by the artist. A simple approach to an equestrian portrait, this gestural acrylic painting by artist April Moffatt puts the horse face to face with the viewer of the composition, engaging with a subtle eye contact to evoke a deeper emotional connection. The neutral color palette is reminiscent of a sepia toned photograph, which gives a sense of nostalgia and charm to the work. There is something calming about the painting, perhaps due to the therapeutic nature horses can have with humans. This work would be right at home on a barn ranch in Texas, but could also help bring the mid-western, country vibe to a more eclectic or transitional environment as well. Artist Commentary: Loose brushstrokes and expressive energy were used to convey the energy that resides just beneath a horses skin...
