About the Item

"Life Has Many Layers" by Alexandra Rozenman is a large mysterious and brooding oil painting on canvas in blues and browns. Large and predominantly dark, this 40 x 50 x 2 inch dreamlike nighttime landscape is signed front and back. The title of this surreal and truthfully exciting painting speaks for itself. It illustrates human fragility and is full of emotions. This painting went through a few phases living for its title. It took the artist three years to paint. A strong flood of bright blue water rises up from the right bottom corner of the painting. It feels as if it goes towards one wind against another! Buildings down the street could be made of cardboard and are about to fall apart. Sky is dark and you can almost hear the thunder, but look carefully and you will notice that same bright sky blue light that we see on the bottom right is moving towards us from behind the city. Sky is dark, night is above us, but the right top corner of the canvas drops down to remind us of another place, another night, another dream, another layer, a second chance, another day, another blessing. Alexandra Rozenman immigrated to America from the Soviet Union in 1989. Russian, European and American myths of national destiny and private identity take on a utopian dimension as she absorbs and expresses the psychology of otherness as fundamental aspects of her own identity. She wants her art to be like a well-worn military wool blanket that gives you warmth, love, and history. The artist states: "Whatever degree of abstraction defines my thinking and visual self-identification it has all to do with the search for my own image in a great existential sea of sweeping changes". Rozenman is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.

"The Quiet Spot 3", Abstract Landscape, Twilight, Blue, Aqua, Oil Painting, 2022
By Anita Loomis
Located in Natick, MA
“The Quiet Spot 3” is a 25 x 25 x 1.5 inch oil painting on linen canvas by Anita Loomis that offers a sultry and dreamlike abstract landscape at twilight. With a modern romantic sensibility, the rich aqua blue tones, the composition speaks to stolen moments of solitude in private places. The is an opportunity to collect one of Loomis’ less frequently offered tonal works. Shifting shadows can be seen thru the veils of color; a treatment that lends the scene a truly quiet feel. The silky reflective surface and black gallery painted edges provide a formal finish. This painting is signed on the back. Anita Loomis is a painter who works from her studio in Kittery, Maine. Communication and the natural world are key subjects of her paintings. Her occasional tonal landscapes offer views of imagined natural spaces for escape and contemplation. Anita Loomis creates paintings that explore facets of human dialogue and relationships. Through painting, humor, and a deep curiosity about human imperfection, she investigates what it means to navigate communication with people who see the world through different cultural lenses. Loomis paints to shine a light on the common threads that connect our human experiences and spotlight the value of empathy. Loomis earned her BA in Studio Art from Framingham State University in Massachusetts, and her MA with a concentration in Arts Management from the University of Central Florida. She worked in the field of architectural stained glass for fifteen years and has focused on painting since 2004. She lives and works in Kittery, Maine. Her work has been exhibited at Miller White Gallery, South Dennis, MA; Fountain Street Gallery, Boston, MA, and various exhibitions in New England, Pennsylvania...

"One-Way Ticket to Paris", Abstract Landscape, Blues, Browns, Oil Painting, 2019
By Alexandra Rozenman
Located in Natick, MA
Alexandra Rozenman’s “One-way to Paris” 16 x 20 x 2.5 oil on canvas painting is a part of her landscape series where she plays with reality and abstraction inside the familiar place. The painting is a well thought- through abstract painting that symbolizes both departure and arrival. The dramatic combination of blues and beautiful browns in geometrical interposition of forms gives us a feeling of going away, departure, speed, light, and serendipity filled with expectations and purifying beauty. The light of dreamy suns above the horizon is suddenly deep green and energizes and calms the senses at the same time. We wonder thinking about the future, a highway that magically finds a way to transform into one lonely Paris street light...
