Eleanor Woolley
Eleanor Woolley was born in the Channel Island of Jersey and moved to Gloucestershire, where she was drawn to the outdoors, always taking walks in the landscape. Woolley's first true love for painting came from an inspirational Art teacher at the Haberdashers Monmouth School for Girls. During this period, she was fortunate enough to work under Mary Fedden in her studio and Portrait Sculptor Peter Lambda with whom she further developed the technique and composition. Woolley learned to paint using classic oil painting techniques and was drawn to the figure from early life drawing lessons. After gaining her BA Hons in Sculpture, Woolley studied Furniture making and worked as a Cabinet Maker before returning to fine art painting. Woolley is influenced by the work of Painter Frank Brangwyn, and his representations of the human form. Woolley still lives in her childhood home in Gloucestershire, surrounded by the countryside and people she loves to paint.

Artist Comments
"Summertime, lunch, a martini, and swim time are the main elements of this piece," shares artist Rebecca Klementovich. "It reminds me of the South of France." Earthy greens provide a balanced backdrop to the bright teal of the lake while hints of red, orange, and pink pop throughout the mountainside and valley. "Another inspiration I had was to imagine Picasso or Matisse finishing up a little plein air session before heading back to Paris," quips Rebecca. "Either way, the warm colors, and the lake were my main focus."
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.
