About the Item

"Bumbling Bees" by Rita Spalding is a charming original oil created in 2010 depicting two bees with a poem in silver script in the background. Rita Spalding was born in Beech Grove, Indiana. She currently resides in Irvington, Indiana. Dreamy Realism My approach to painting is fairly traditional, but not purely representational. I combine very realistic elements with an abstracted, softened view of reality; and I describe my style as Dreamy Realism. While sometimes dramatic, I generally strive for a peaceful, calming beauty in my work. I'm drawn to the work of the Old Masters, but I use objects and combinations of objects with a more modern sensibility. I'm attracted to and spend a lot of time studying Nature, and the way light falls across beautiful things. My love is creating quiet, poetic paintings with deep, rich colors, compelling subject matter, and concise, elegant compositions.
