Various subjects
Adriana van Zoest's paintings are not easy to classify under one heading. We roughly divide the subjects she prefers to paint into three.
Still lifes
Virtuoso still lifes, with ultimate perfection as the main goal. In these works she tries to achieve the ultimate illusion technically, based on traditional painting techniques.
Her subjects range from tubers to flowers and from a Roman vase to a Mirror Ball. Beautiful materials that are never translated 'one-on-one' into paint by the artist. Adriana van Zoest explains how the objects are used as a source of inspiration. The artist then 'manipulates' to his heart's content. Van Zoest creates his own reality with light and color, for example.
Animal still lifes
The still lifes of deceased animals make for particularly appealing paintings. The animals appear to be portrayed at the moment when death has just occurred. Their beauty is preserved in this way for eternity. There appears to be a sleeping state, the position and composition in which the animals are depicted reveal that death has occurred. The surprising and contemporary paintings were created after a process of studies in oil paint and then displayed in various layers on the panel in the final form. The technical perfection ensures that the reality, despite the added individuality of the artist, remains sensational, no matter how long you continue to look.
Animal portraits
The fact that the artist is an animal lover is also evident in the still lifes of the deceased animals. This is certainly also reflected in the portraits that Adriana van Zoest has made of the living animals. 'The cat' is a clear favorite. Yet, in addition to various types of cats, various fish can be seen. A greater difference in skin than between these two animal species is perhaps not conceivable. Here too, the artist shows her desire to exceed perfection and it is almost unimaginable to see how picturesque and also "real and colorful" the animals are depicted.

Adriana van Zoest
Adriana van Zoest was born on March 15, 1966. In the Netherlands and far beyond, her still lives are admired and discussed. Her training for the artist she is today partly took place in Eindhoven. As a young girl, she spent hours behind Cornelis le Mair while he was painting his still lifes. Zoest is so well-known that even museums are waiting in line to organize an exhibition with her. Her work stands out because it forms a bridge between the classical and the modern. It, therefore, belongs to the classically modern within contemporary realism. Zoest lives and works in Warmenhuizen.

"Romantical" (2022) by Carrie Goller, Oil & Cold Wax Painting, Hummingbird
Located in Denver, CO
Carrie Goller's (US based) "Romantical" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts a hummingbird hovering above white orchids. This piece is unframed yet ready to hang.
Born and raised on Washington’s tiny Bainbridge Island, artist Carrie Goller recalls being advised as a child to pursue a career in fine art. After an early career as a paralegal, a life-changing experience led her to become a serious and dedicated artist.
Once I finally indulged my need to create art, the door was opened and I haven’t looked back. I’ve been making up for lost time; a bit obsessed. Art is now a necessity for me. I find true expression and balance in that world, says Goller.
Goller is inspired by simple, sensuous organic forms and the realm of colors, shapes and textures found in nature. Her thoughtful approach to subject matter can be evidenced from her tender still life work, along with a passion for rendering impressionist oils of daily life. From her Bainbridge Island and Hood Canal...
