Columbus, Georgia (USA) based artist Kellie Newsome specializes in dynamic and abstracted still-life artworks. Her expressive style emphasizes line structure, creating vibrant paintings that celebrate intricate details. By skillfully applying layers of texture, Newsome brings forth paintings that exude depth and vitality. This one-of-a-kind 18.5-inch high by 14.5-inch wide mixed-media artwork is created with acrylic and pencil on watercolor paper. This artwork is framed with a silver metal frame. Size and price include the frame. The artist signed it on the front and back and it comes with a certificate of authenticity from the art gallery. Convenient shipping is available for those in the local Los Angeles area. Affordable worldwide shipping is available for U.S. and international art collectors. Newsome employs a fluid technique that breathes life into the artwork, allowing movement to dance across the painting. From the explosive energy and grace of the animals depicted to the meticulous details capturing fleeting moments in time, Newsome's skillful hand guides us through a mesmerizing visual journey. Newsome says about her work: “Painting is my passion; I enjoy the process of capturing something beautiful and organic while creating contrast with vibrant and pastel colors combined with quiet spaces and bold mark-making. My subject matter is often plants or animals that make me feel empowered or inspired as metaphors for my own life experiences.” Born in the picturesque landscapes of Columbus, Georgia, and nurtured on a quaint farm in Alabama, Kelly Newsome's artistic journey is deeply intertwined with the rural charm that surrounded her formative years. From exploring the vast fields to immersing herself in the rich flora and fauna, Newsome's love for nature becomes not just an inspiration but a vivid thread woven into the canvas of her life and art. Kelly Newsome's artistic prowess began to flourish during her tenure at Troy University, where her commitment to the craft earned her sponsorship from Chroma's Atelier Interactive brand of paint. This significant milestone not only showcases Newsome's dedication but also aligns her with recognized brands, emphasizing the quality and uniqueness of her art. From gallery exhibitions at Artspace Warehouse in Los Angeles to global art fairs and private acquisitions, Newsome's art now resonates on an international scale throughout the United States and beyond.

By Richard Andres

Located in Beachwood, OH

Richard Andres (American, 1927-2013) Pieces Collage, c. 1965 collage on paper 14 x 18 inches Richard Andres was born in Buffalo, New York in 1927. A graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art in 1950, he was immediately drafted and served for two years in the army as a mural painter. He received his Master of Arts from Kent State in 1961. A frequent exhibitor at galleries and museums and winner of multiple May Show prizes, Andres taught art in the Cleveland Public Schools for 28 years, as well as teaching the University of Buffalo, the Cleveland Institute of Art and the Western Reserve University. Very little in Richard Andres’ childhood would have predicted his love of classical music, mid-century-modern architecture and certainly not his lifelong passion for art and in particular abstract art. Richard’s father, Raymond, had no more than a third-grade education, and his mother, Clara, was one of thirteen children – only three of whom lived into adulthood and none of whom attended high school. They lived, when Richard was a boy, in a dingy area of Buffalo, NY in a walk-up apartment situated above a tavern. Raymond and Clara supplemented the income from their factory jobs in the bar downstairs with Raymond playing ragtime on the piano and Clara serving drinks. This often left Richard and his two older brothers at home alone to fend for themselves. The two older boys, Raymond and Russell, were - unlike Richard- rather rough and tumble and entertained themselves with stickball, boxing and the like. Richard, on the other hand, from a very young age liked to draw, or better yet even, to paint with the small set of watercolors he received for Christmas one year. Paper, however, at the height of the depression, was hard to come by. Luckily, Clara used paper doilies as decoration for the apartment and Richard would contentedly paint and then cut up doilies, gluing the pieces together to create collages. At eight-years-old, he discovered the Albright-Knox Museum (then known as the Albright Art Gallery) and spent several hours a week there studying the paintings. He was particularly fond of Charles Burchfield‘s landscapes, enamored with their ‘messiness’ and thinking that they somehow captured more ‘feeling’ than works he was previously familiar with. For his tenth Christmas, he asked for and received a ‘how-to’ paint book by Elliot O’Hare. Through this self-teaching, he assembled the portfolio needed for acceptance to Buffalo Technical High School where he studied Advertising Arts. In his Junior year, he was encouraged to enter a watercolor painting, “Two Barns,” in the national 1944-45 Ingersoll Art Award Contest and was one of twelve grand prize winners – each one winning one hundred dollars. More importantly the painting was exhibited at the Carnegie Institute Galleries, which resulted in his winning a national scholarship to the Cleveland School of Art (The Cleveland Art Institute). He flourished at the art school under the tutelage of faculty members such as Carl Gaertner, as well as that of visiting artists such as William Sommer and Henry George Keller. He would say in later years that Gaertner, in particular, influenced his attitude toward life as well as art. “Gaertner,” Andres said, “believed that there was no need to be a ‘tortured artist’, that an artist should rather enjoy beauty, family, and life in general.” Free to spend his days as he chose, he wandered the Cleveland Art Museum for most of the hours he was not attending classes or painting; the remaining time was spent drinking coffee at a local hangout with art school friends – which is where he met fellow Henry Keller scholarship winner, Avis Johnson. Richard was immediately smitten with Avis, but being rather shy, it took him the entire summer of 1948 to build up his courage to ask her out. Over that summer he ‘thought about Avis’ and worked in a diner to save money. He also used the hundred-dollar prize money won in High School to visit the first Max Beckmann retrospective in the United States at the City Art Museum in St. Louis. Over a half century later he spoke of that exhibit with a reverence usually reserved for spiritual matters, “I walked in and it was like nothing I had ever seen before... the color...It just glowed.” Returning to campus in the Fall, the first thing he did was go to the coffee shop in hopes of finding Avis. He did, and she, upon seeing him, realized that she was also smitten with him. They quickly became known as ‘the couple’ on campus, and a year later, with Richard being drafted for the Korean war, they were quickly married by a Justice of the Peace, celebrating after with family at Avis’s Cleveland home. As a gift, faculty member John Paul Miller designed and made the simple gold wedding ring Avis wore for their 65 years of marriage. During those 65 years neither wavered in their mutual love, nor in the respect they shared for one another’s art. The couple lived in a converted chicken coop in Missouri while Richard was in boot camp. At the camp, he would volunteer for any job offered and one of those jobs ended up being painting road signs. His commander noticed how quickly and neatly he worked and gave him more painting work to do - eventually recommending him for a position painting murals for Army offices in Panama. Until her dying day, Avis remained angry that “The army got to keep those fabulous murals and they probably didn’t even know how wonderful they were.” In Panama, their first son, Mark, was born. After Richard’s discharge in 1953, they moved back to the Cleveland area and used the GI bill to attend Kent State gaining his BA in education. The small family then moved briefly to Buffalo, where Richard taught at the Albright Art School and the University of Buffalo – and their second son, Peter, was born. Richard had exhibited work in the Cleveland May Show and the Butler Art Museum during his art school years, and during the years in Buffalo, his work was exhibited at the gallery he had so loved as a child, the Albright Art Gallery. In 1956, the family moved back to the Cleveland area and Richard began teaching art at Lincoln West High School during the day while working toward his MA in art at Kent State in the evenings. Avis and Richard, with the help of an architect, designed their first home - a saltbox style house in Hudson, Ohio, and in 1958, their third son, Max (after Max Beckmann) was born. Richard enjoyed the consistency of teaching high school as well as the time it gave him to paint on the weekends and during the summer months. In 1961, he received his MA and his daughter, Claire, was born. With a fourth child, the house was much too small, and Avis and Richard began designing their second home. An admirer of MCM architecture, Richard’s favorite example of the style was the Farnsworth house – he often spoke of how the concepts behind this architectural style, particularly that of Mies van der Rohe, influenced his painting. Andres described himself as a 1950’s...

Spanish Modernist Portrait of a Woman with Guitar, Catalan Fauvist Interior Oil

By Jordi Curos

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Spanish Modernist Portrait of a Woman with Guitar, Catalan Fauvist Interior Artist: Jordi Curós Ventura (Spanish, 1930–2017) Title: Woman with Guitar Date: 1980 Medium: Oil on panel Dimensions: 46 × 38 cm (18.11 × 14.96 in) Framed dimensions: 64 × 56 cm (25.20 × 22.05 in) Signature: Signed and dated lower right Period: Late 20th century Style: Spanish Modernism, Catalan Modern Art, Figurative Expressionism, Fauvist influence Subject: Female portrait, woman, guitar, interior, flowers Condition: Good vintage condition, consistent with age Frame: Framed Description A striking 1980 oil painting by Catalan artist Jordi Curós Ventura, depicting a seated young woman in an intimate interior accompanied by a Spanish guitar and a vase of red flowers. The composition is constructed through large areas of warm, expressive color. The intense coral-orange background establishes an immediate chromatic presence, while the woman's pale yellow jacket, dark violet trousers, blue-green vase and orange guitar create a carefully balanced yet deliberately unconventional palette. Curós simplifies forms without abandoning figuration, giving the painting the visual immediacy associated with postwar European modernism and the coloristic freedom of Fauvism. The sitter occupies the center of the composition, frontal and still, her crossed legs and folded hands producing an almost sculptural stability. Behind her, the guitar introduces an unmistakably Mediterranean and Spanish note, while the vase and small table transform the portrait into an intimate domestic scene. Rather than functioning merely as accessories, these objects divide the composition into chromatic zones and establish a rhythmic dialogue between figure, still life and interior. The painting is signed and dated lower right and retains its substantial period frame. Biography Jordi Curós Ventura (Olot, Girona, 1930–2017) was an important Catalan painter associated with the renewal of Spanish figurative painting during the second half of the 20th century. He trained at the Escola d'Arts i Oficis of Olot, a city with one of Catalonia's most distinguished landscape-painting traditions. His first solo exhibition took place at Galerías Jardín in Barcelona in 1950, and from 1951 he participated in the influential Salons d'Octubre, which played an important role in introducing new artistic languages into postwar Catalan art. Curós exhibited at prominent Barcelona galleries including Sala Caralt, Galerías Layetanas, Galería Syra and Sala Vayreda. His Madrid debut took place at Galerías Biosca in 1953, and he also exhibited internationally. In 1952 he was selected by the influential Catalan intellectual and critic Eugeni d'Ors for the X Salón de los Once. The following year he participated in the II Bienal Hispanoamericana de Arte in Havana. Curós received scholarships that enabled him to work in Paris, first from the Institut Français de Barcelona in 1954 and later from Barcelona City Council in 1958. Contact with the Parisian art world contributed to the development of the increasingly experimental language that characterized his work during the following years. Between approximately 1958 and 1963, his painting moved toward abstraction and Informalism, with strongly textured surfaces, arabesques and enamel-like areas of color. He later returned to figuration, developing a highly personal style characterized by luminous color, simplified forms and an interest in capturing the immediacy of everyday life. From 1965 to 1989 he exhibited repeatedly at Barcelona's historic Sala Parés, one of Spain's oldest and most prestigious commercial galleries. His career also included participation in major exhibitions of contemporary Spanish art in Havana, Rio de Janeiro, Montevideo, Lisbon, Porto and Brussels. The Museu d'Art Modern de Barcelona acquired one of his paintings as early as 1953. Today Curós is regarded as a distinctive representative of postwar Catalan painting, occupying a fascinating territory between Mediterranean figuration, Expressionism, abstraction and the legacy of French modernism. Artistic Inspiration and Context This painting belongs to Curós's mature return to figuration after his experiments with abstraction and Informalism. Its saturated palette and simplified construction recall the great colorist tradition of 20th-century European painting, particularly Henri Matisse, Kees van Dongen and Raoul Dufy, while its psychological directness and deliberately economical drawing place it firmly within Spanish and Catalan postwar figurative art. There is also a subtle connection with the intimate interiors of the School of Paris: a solitary figure, ordinary domestic objects and an apparently simple setting transformed through color into something psychologically charged. The guitar is especially significant. Beyond its decorative function, it introduces a distinctly Spanish cultural symbol into an otherwise cosmopolitan modernist composition. Together with the flowers and intensely colored background, it gives the work a warm Mediterranean character highly characteristic of Curós's mature figurative vocabulary. The result is both portrait and interior, combining Spanish identity, Catalan postwar modernism and the chromatic freedom inherited from Fauvism.
