About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
In "A Quiet Saunter," Joey Manlapaz invites us into a moment of calm within the bustling cityscape of Lancaster Road. The painting captures a sunny day, drawing the viewer's eye to a charming Japanese restaurant that stands as the focal point of this serene urban tableau.
The restaurant’s facade, adorned with a vivid wall painting of a poised Japanese woman, serves as a cultural centerpiece, infusing the scene with a touch of elegance and tradition. In the foreground, a solitary figure walks leisurely towards the restaurant, embodying a quiet grace that contrasts with the underlying vibrancy of the city. This juxtaposition creates a narrative of peace amidst the everyday hustle.
Manlapaz’s contemporary realism shines through in the interplay of oil and mixed media on board. The artist’s choice of colors—deep blues, warm yellows, vibrant reds, and soft grays—creates a dynamic yet harmonious palette that captures the essence of a city bathed in sunlight. The textured strokes and careful layering bring the scene to life, offering a tactile quality that draws viewers into the moment.
Signed and ready for display, "A Quiet Saunter" is not just a visual experience but an invitation to pause and appreciate the subtle beauty of ordinary life. The artwork is available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online, making it a perfect addition for those seeking to infuse their space with a touch of urban serenity.
Artist biography:
Joey P. Mánlapaz (MFA, George Washington University) is a contemporary realist painter, avid educator, compassionate art provider for the older community, noted curator and juror all rolled into one. She lives and works in Washington, DC, the main subject of her canvases, which are widely recognized and collected, most notably by the nation’s capital that owns 43 paintings and prints. The artist is recipient of commissions, grants, and fellowships in support of her work. The U.S. Library of Congress and First Lady Laura Bush commissioned the artist for the coveted 2003 National Book Festival. Her paintings have been shown at nationwide galleries and museums. Her papers, correspondence and sketchbooks are in the collection of the U.S. Library of Congress Asian American and Pacific Islander Division. A replica of her painting is installed permanently at the Bethesda Metro Tunnel in Maryland. Mánlapaz’s ongoing fascination for and concentration on the city of Washington as subject matter was influenced by the late painter Frank Wright, her mentor renowned for his depictions of 18th-19th century architecture of downtown DC. In her realist renditions, she examines the relationship between the factual photorealism of Richard Estes and the deep psychological sensibility of Edward Hopper, and attempts to bridge the two concepts to achieve a painterly style with a generous dose of Alfred Hitchcock’s suspenseful thrill. The artist is Associate Faculty at the Corcoran School of Art & Design at George Washington University and lecturer at The Art League (VA).
