Lena Khvichia
'Where the Lilac Bloomed', by Lena Khvichia, Abstract Painting, Oil on Canvas

2015

About the Item

'Where the Lilac Bloomed' is a 16 x 20 oil on canvas by Lena Khvichia. Using mainly shades of dark blue and a couple hints of reddish brown and green, Khvichia creates an abstract work that adheres to the importance of color. The various densities of paint throughout the composition create a blotchy look which showcases the different values of blue. The bit of reddish brown that Khvichia uses is faint and only seen in a couple small areas of the composition, specifically towards the top right and top center of the work. In the center and lower half of the work, Khvichia uses a hint of white and black on top of the blue to help define the different values within the piece. The greenish hues are in the lower half of the work as well, with one small area exhibiting a defined color differential between the dark blue and white/green haze of color. It appears as though Khvichia uses a sort of masking technique to layer and create different color values while also helping to define her strokes, creating a sense of uniformity in her marks. This work exhibits the aesthetic importance of experimenting with color tints and hues and how these design choices reflect the principals of abstraction. Lena Khvichia reveals herself as a creative and undoubtedly gifted painter, interpreting Lithuanian coloristic painting tradition and abstract painting aesthetics in her own manner. She is an emotional artist: however her works are very constructive and well balanced in terms of composition, which disciplines, her hand's movements, and broad strokes. Lena Khvichia’s works, usually beings of tranquil surface facture, never seem flat, are seen as having depth, a third dimension, even though the paintings only vaguely imply the objects of the real world. The expressive layer can be recognized to a certain extent even in her most abstract works—mostly the reflections of subconscious impressions and moods experienced by the author.

  • 'Solarium', by Anthony Dyke, Oil on Canvas Painting, 2022
    Located in Oklahoma City, OK
    Anthony Dyke's "Solarium," a 74 x 48 x 1.25 inch oil on canvas painting, references solar flares in its use of shape and color. The bright values of yellows, reds and blues surround a large red circular shape. The bright color wavelengths give this painting a vibrational energy. Anthony Dyke was born in Norwich, Vermont and attended The School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University earning a BFA and MFA in painting. As an artist and arts educator, he relocated from New York City to his down¬town Oklahoma City studio, working there for two decades before returning to Boston in 2020. Coming from VERMONT where the seasons are distinctly different from one another. My shift from a pastoral setting to an urban environment set up a dichotomy in my work, both visual and emotional. I have an extensive education in painting, photography, graphic design and figure sculpture. These mediums intersect in my work through many years of creating artworks and currently speak to my interest in abstract painting. During my senior year in the BFA Program at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, my large painting “Natole” was chosen by Frank Stella (the juror) into the highly competitive and prestigious Dana Pond...

    Located in Oklahoma City, OK
    "Cabana", by Anthony Dyke is a 36" x 48" x 1.5" oil on canvas painting. Its flag-like imagery is influenced by Jasper Johns' flag paintings. The layered and scraped surface in tropical blues, greens, whites and yellow, and its horizontal banding depicts a flag-like presence. The title references the bright, clear colors one might find in beach structures in seaside resorts.
