A Day on Monhegan Island, Original Painting

2022

Artist Comments
Artist Rebecca Klementovich shares a colorful outlook on the beautiful Monhegan Island—one of her favorite places to paint off the coast of Maine. "Monhegan is a famous painters paradise which is a 45-minute boat ride from shore," shares Rebecca. She features the small houses nestled within the landscape that overlooks the sea.

About the Artist
Artist Rebecca Klementovich paints expressionist views of the New England landscape. Merging her lifelong interest in fashion, she co-founded the group Femme Fatales of the North. "We are painting in gowns on the tops of mountains and slapping paint on canvases," says Rebecca. "We are an example of who the northern women are as artists." Her colorful palette and gestural style draw influence from her long career in the fashion world. Rebecca studied fashion illustration at FIT in New York and worked as a textile designer and art director for over twenty years. After leaving New York, she moved to northern New Hampshire near Mount Washington. "The mountains are nostalgic and lyrical, and this greatly affected my landscapes." Today, she spends many hours observing the fields, forest and sky, and the changing seasons.
