About the Item

Artist Michelle Fillmore discovered her passion for oil painting while pursuing her studies at the University of Las Vegas, where she earned a BA in Painting and Drawing in 2015. Known for her meticulously rendered photorealistic style portraying surrealistic imagery, Fillmore's art celebrates humanity's resilience and capacity for transformation. This unique oil on canvas painting measures 48 inches square and bears the artist's signature on both the front and back. It comes stretched, wired, and ready for display, eliminating the need for framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery is included. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping is available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Fillmore's intricate paintings, each requiring a month to complete, serve as autobiographical metaphors. Through her art, she seeks to initiate conversations about mental health, addressing its associated stigmas and challenges. Her works convey the beauty found within imperfection and suggest that childhood adversities can foster personal growth. Regarding her creative process, Fillmore remarks, “I paint the things I do partially as a way to take the parts of my past that once made me feel isolated and turn them into opportunities to connect.” Currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Fillmore's art is showcased nationally.

Blue Reflections - Large Blue Bather Photorealist Original Figurative Painting
By Elise Remender
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Elise Remender captures the romantic glamour of a bygone era in her contemporary figurative paintings that blend classical fine art and contemporary pop realism. Fantasy, mid-century fashion, and the glamour of travel and coastal living inform soft brush strokes and abstracted beauty; reminiscent of vintage advertisements and dusted sunlight. This original 56-inch square acrylic on canvas painting evokes a sense of delight and playfully nods at summery vintage aesthetics. It is signed by Remender on the front bottom right corner of the artwork. The sides are painted as a continuation of the front and it does not require framing. Free delivery within the local Los Angeles area. This artwork includes a certificate of authenticity issued by the gallery. Remender grew up in Arizona and is based in Southern California, but she has traveled all over the world gaining inspiration for her work. Her most recent series, Bathing Beauties, which captures the human form and abstracts it through light and reflection, was inspired by the vintage elegance and history of Southeast Asia’s historic hotel pools and gardens. It evokes a bygone era when Ernest Hemingway and Jackie O. were among the clientele. “I’m a bit of an old soul and there is a sense of elegance and beauty that has been lost in modern-day society, and I seek to recapture this essence in my work. I’m creating a sort of fantasy world of luxury, leisure, and old Hollywood glamour.” Her work has appeared in galleries in the US and Asia and in GQ Magazine, Architectural Digest, Dwell, California Home, People, among many other publications. Her paintings hang in luxury properties including The Ritz Carlton San Francisco, The Hard Rock Hotel Las Vegas, and Hilton properties across the United States, as well as in the homes of celebrity collectors including Ryan Seacrest and Kylie Jenner.
