About the Item

Windermere Shadows is an Original Painting by Eleanor Woolley. This painting depicts the banks of lake Windermere, dotted with people. The grassy banks are of bright green with shadows of phtalo green cast by the summers' sun. Boats can be seen on the lake their masts cutting through the horizon, and leading our eye to the banks on the far side. Interior images thanks to pvproductions Wuttichai, and Vanitjan of Freepik.

Her first true love for painting came from an inspirational Art teacher at Haberdashers Monmouth School for Girls where she started painting in Oils at thirteen years old. Here she learnt to paint using classic oil painting techniques, and was drawn to the figure from early life drawing lessons. During this period she was fortunate enough to work under Mary Fedden in her studio and with Portrait Sculptor Peter Lambda with whom she further developed her technique and composition. After gaining her BA Hons in Sculpture at Leeds University Eleanor travelled for some time in Asia before coming home to study Furniture making. Eleanor worked as a Cabinet maker and a Restorer before returning to Fine Art painting. Eleanor’s inspiration is taken from her surroundings where she has a love for the every day things, often passed by without a second thought. Eleanor’s paintings are vibrant, often painted Plein air and finished in the studio. Starting with bold outlines, many layers of paint are used to create the depth of colour. Her paintings are spontaneous, using washes of oil to create the desired form. Often finishing with a palette knife producing a pleasing texture. Her current work is inspired by the landscape of the Cotswolds, and contrasted with long shadows created by figures in urban landscapes.

Lake Swim at Lunch, Abstract Painting
By Rebecca Klementovich
Located in San Francisco, CA

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.
