Kristen Brown
Can't Be, Oil Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
This portrait depicts a woman looking back against a night sky and a sea of wildflowers. Wearing an ambivalent expression, there is an unknown quality to the woman, which evokes a sense of secrecy and romanticism. The air of movement in the painting reflects the transitory nature of our interactions with others.

About the Artist
Naoko Paluszak began her career by studying graphic design in Tokyo, followed by several years working as a designer, before switching to oil painting. Now located in the United States, Naoko continues to develop her style through different series of paintings that have varying degrees of abstraction. By bridging representational with non-representational forms, the artist seeks to stir personal memories and spark new narratives. “Art is about having a sense of mystery and drama,” she says. Naoko is also passionate about color. She mixes her paints based on the intuitive emotions that different colors can trigger within the viewer, and within herself.
