Mandy Main
Red Road XVI, Abstract Oil Painting

2021

About the Item

Artist Comments
A scarlet road moves forward into the distance through a soft-focused countryside creating a contemporary atmospheric landscape. "The eye moves around the composition, lead by the road, the rising mist at its end and the uplifting warm light by the horizon," shares artist Mandy Main. The fiery road makes a vivid contrast to the warm palette of olive, warm greens, and ochres. Mandy renders her work with loose, animated paint application using knives and spatulas. "The horizontal format lends a sense of calm while the road and the lively texture add movement and intrigue."


About the Artist
Mandy Main is an art historian and landscape painter based in the Southern California desert. She has long been passionate about 19th Century American landscape paintings, which has been influential in her artistic practice. Mandy works in series, generally three paintings at a time. Her process begins with a vision of a place she has been, but she takes creative liberties with the aesthetic details. The artist is captivated by light and shadow, and strives to instill her work with moody drama through the representation of these elements. Using layers of paint and glazes, Mandy achieves mesmerizing atmospheric depth, encouraging the viewer to gaze and be still.

  • Regatta, Abstract Oil Painting
    By Sharon Sieben
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Sharon Sieben paints an abstract display of expressive cobalt blue strokes. A majestic and imaginative representation of sailing through the ocean. "I observed this when I could feel the rush of wind in sails and hear the sea splash against the hull," says Sharon. Accents of green create a stimulating complement to the flurry of dramatic brushwork.


    About the Artist
