Brooch #4 - Made by Shadows #4
Located in New York, NY
Ann Parkin’s current work is an exploration of new possibilities in technique and materials, as well as the expression of a new imagery for art jewelry.
Historically, art and particularly craft, have been vehicles for the symbols, images and visual metaphors of society’s current view of its world and the “nature” of which it finds itself a part. Discoveries and techniques at the leading edge of science have given us astounding views of new levels of nature and reality and have provided opportunities for the development of a new set of imagery and symbols for our time. Parkin’s work has been inspired by the vast visual potential of such scientific areas as electron microscopy, nuclear imaging, “Chaos” physics, and particularly subatomic particle physics.
The graphic imagery of Parkin’s current work is not, in the traditional sense, abstract but rather is a representational view of nature that we are among the first generations to see. The images of the Particle Shower series are based upon the visual records of subatomic particle physics, which show the tracks left by subatomic particles as they pass through the bubble and cloud chambers once used by nuclear physicists.
Parkin reflects that, “It has been said that Science is the Religion of the modern age. If that is even in part true, then it points the way to an exciting new approach to ornamentation and imagery that goes beyond the commonly observable surface reality to re-establish the fundamental role of art/craft - the articulation and expression of underlying patterns of the natural order as an integral aspect of our created personal environment.”
Born in Toronto, Canada in 1956, Ann Parkin received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from New York University in 1978 and a Gemological Diploma from the Gemological Association of Great Britain in 1987. She studied metalwork, jewelry and enameling at the 92nd Street Y in New York City with renowned jewelry artists Robert Ebendorf, Rebekah Laskin, Charles Lewton-Brain and John Cogswell.
Parkin’s work has appeared in group exhibitions, and as a featured artist, at Aaron Faber Gallery, NYC; Oms Gallery, NJ; Objects of Desire, Louisville, KY; Society of Arts and Crafts, Boston, MA; Newport Harbor Art Museum, Newport Beach, CA; New Jersey Designer Craftsmen Gallery, New Brunswick, NJ; Greater Denton Arts Council, Denton, TX; Artist-Craftsmen of New York, NYC; Crafts National 26, Penn State University, PA; The Farrell Collection, Washington, DC; Contemporary Crafts Gallery, Portland, OR; Views Gallery, Manayunk, PA; Sculpture to Wear, Los Angeles, CA; Craft Students League, NYC; Joan Michlin...

"Paysage avec Chateau et Cours d'Eau" Landscape with Castle and Stream
By Louis Gabriel Moreau
Located in Houston, TX
Lovely soft gouache landscape scene titled "Paysage avec Chateau et Cours d'Eau" (Landscape with Castle and Stream) by artist Louis Gabriel Moreau in 1787. Framed in gold gilt frame.
Artist Biography:
Louis Gabriel Moreau, a gifted draughtsman, etcher and painter of landscapes, had a prodigious career. After studying with Pierre-Antoine de Machy, who specialized in painting Grand Tour themes - landscapes redolent with Classical ruins and tromp-l'oeil architectural scenes, he went on to become a member of the Academie de St. Luc, artist to Comte d'Artois (later King Charles X), and curator of the National Museum in Paris. Moreau, a master of watercolors and gouaches, combined the picturesque architectures of his master de Machy with naturalistically, almost plein-air-rendered, topographical landscapes in the Ile-de-France region just outside of Paris.
Moreau's fascination with the effects of light at different times of the day precipitated his use of a lighter palette, characterized by warm yellows and verdant foliage punctuated by deep ultramarine blues instead of browns. Moreau's predilection for natural light made him equally successful following the French Revolution, in which the Third Estate toppled the landed gentry and their royal established academies. Before 1789, French castles and estates in lush settings of abundance were Moreau's preferred subject; the painting offered exemplifies this style - a style upon which he established himself as an artist for nearly twenty-five years exhibiting annually at the Academie de St. Luc. Following the Revolution, Moreau's, bright palette and light drenched compositions with voluminous clouds and ruins dotting the low horizon remained; his subjects, on the other hand, became distinctly more humble, showcasing the daily life of farmers, fishermen, modest structures and gardens. Both Moreau's pre- and post-Revolutionary paintings...
