Adrian Gottlieb
Artist Adrian Gottlieb is primarily known for his figurative and portrait paintings, but his impressive repertoire also includes still lifes. While his paintings may have a deceptively light and easy quality about them, a deep mastery of the craft reveals itself upon closer inspection.
Gottlieb's artistry is underpinned by an extensive education in fine arts. He earned a degree in illustration from Rochester Institute of Technology while spending summers at Charles H. Cecil Studios in Florence, Italy. Upon graduation, he subsequently studied drawing and classic painting at the Florence Academy of Art for three years.
One of Gottlieb’s best-known pieces is a 2014 portrait of American politician and fine arts patron Michael Huffington. Another recognizable painting is a 2018 portrait of former Nevada governor Brian Sandoval, which is now held in the collection of the Nevada State Capitol Building. "[Sandoval] knew he had found the painter he wanted to capture his legacy when he talked with Adrian Gottlieb, who insisted the outgoing governor sit for him in person for 60 hours, or he wouldn’t take the job," the Nevada Independent reported.
Gottlieb currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California.

Artist Comments
Inspired by how the sunlight illuminated the petals of a rose, artist Sherri Aldawood paints a portrait of her model Alana holding a freshly cut bloom. She paints her enveloped in a warm glow, revealing her and the flower's ethereal beauty. The model poses tenderly in a white dress with a Bardot neckline. The colors of summer shimmer vibrantly in the background.
About the Artist
Sherri Aldawood didn't intend to always paint flowers, but over time her love of gardens started to permeate her art. She focuses on the light and color of the flowers on the canvas. Sherri prefers alla prima, working with wet layers of paint instead of letting them dry. She keeps the paint as wet as possible by using walnut and clove oil to extend the drying time.
