About the Item

Timeless Day is an oil and mixed media painting on canvas in a contemporary, black frame. Signed ‘FRESSINIER’ lower left, 20 x 20 inches canvas size and 23.5 x 23.5 inches framed. François Fressinier (b. 1968) is a French-born painter celebrated for his luminous figurative works that blend realism, symbolism, and a touch of magic. At the heart of his art is the human figure, especially the female face, as a timeless subject of beauty, serenity, and emotional depth. Throughout art history, the female face has captivated collectors, but Fressinier approaches it in a way that feels distinctly contemporary: not as object, but as portal. His women carry inner worlds. sometimes gazing directly outward, sometimes turned in profile or lost in reflection, inviting the viewer to project their own emotions, memories, and stories. Raised in Cognac, France by artistic parents and classically trained at the École Brassart in Tours, Fressinier absorbed the lessons of Old Masters such as Rembrandt, Van Dyke, and Bonnard, while also drawing inspiration from contemporary icons like Andy Warhol and Ernst Fuchs. His paintings reflect this duality: rooted in history yet alive with modern imagination. Fressinier’s layered process combines molding paste, acrylics, oils, and/or collage, creating shimmering textures that hide and reveal details over time. Mistakes become opportunities; secrets float to the surface. Figures and faces, architectural fragments, and abstract patterns, all emerge gradually through this dialogue between artist and canvas. Exhibited and collected internationally, Fressinier’s paintings resonate with seasoned collectors and new buyers alike. In today’s market, where emotional connection and storytelling matter more than ever, his work offers intimacy without cliché, beauty without objectification, and narratives that remain open for each viewer to complete.

Summer Bloom - Floral Figurative Portrait Feminine
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 50-inch square painting evokes a sense of delight and playfully nods at summery vintage aesthetics. This one-of-a-kind painting is painted with acrylic paint on canvas. 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.
