By Leon D'Usseau

Signed lower right, 'Dusso' for Leon D'Usseau, Jr. (American, 1918-1991) and painted circa 1965. A substantial oil painting showing two lovers reclining in a barge on a stream before a Persian palace crowned with domes and minarets; the pair elegantly dressed, with the young woman bejeweled and the young man playing a lute.

At the age of twelve, he was drawing seriously and, at fifteen, he received a working scholarship at Chouinard School of Art where he studied under Merrill Gage and Alexander Archipenko and also taught a line-drawing class.

Pandemic 6 - landscape painting, minimalist painting
By Olga Szczechowska
Located in New York, NY

As oppose to the chaos the world is experiencing due to the pandemic, her landscape paintings are the opposite; calm, almost surreal and utopic. Olga is mostly engaged in painting and illustration. She likes breaking the rules of proper reflecting of nature with the use of unexpected elements from another universe. Her works are minimalistic in the form, simply elegant and gracefully colorful.
