About the Item
Abstract oil painting on canvas and resin. This bright piece has a lot of depth, literally! The layers of paint and resin are built upon each other, the upper layers casting shadows below. The glossy resin creates a reflective surface that takes on part of the environment it is hung in. This piece is one of many unique studies Darius has done on the topic of Monet's Waterlilies, making his own statement in his individual style. The epoxy resin plays an interesting roll in this piece, as if it were actually water, creating a sense of dimension. Willow branches enter the composition from above painted with heavy swaths of paint, lily pads painted in dark purples, teals and kelly green floating on the surface of the "water". Delicate ripples painted in pale yellows, purples and green across the resin create the feeling of movement. Shades of ocher, Naples yellow and pale robins egg blue painted under the resin give the impression of pond water reflecting a bright blue sky.

Darius Yektai was born in Southampton NY, in 1973. He lives and works out of his home and studio in Sag Harbor. He grew up in a cultural home of art and artists, with his Greek-American Mother, and his Father, Manoucher Yektai, an Iranian who emigrated to the US after the Second World War, was a prominent Hamptons AbEx painter. Darius has picked up some traits from his father but pushes even further into what is now completely his-own.
Darius' most recent body of work is bright, colorful, with oil and acrylic paints laid on thick. He's creating sculptural paintings that can't be read from left to right, they need to be examined from surface to base, from section to section, and then overall as an encompassing whole.

"Daniels Lane" contemporary oil on resin painting colorful modern farm landscape
By Darius Yektai
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
An oil painting of a landscape in Sagaponack NY. Lines radiate across the canvas towards the bottom and right side of the canvas in shades of yellow, brown and orange, indicating rows of plants or tilled soil in a field. The field is surrounded by lush thick brush-stokes in shades of green flecked there and there with bright orange. The top fourth of the painting shows the sky, full of points of paint, most under the resin. The white dots above the resin cast shadows below, adding dimension to the piece. The two radiating lines that surround the lower righthand corner are also painted above the resin, one white and one a swirl of primary colors loosely mixed together. The raw white gessoed linen canvas is clearly visible between the precisely placed brush-strokes, all sealed under resin...

Surrealist Landscape with Feathered Object in Acrylic, Paper, and Gold Leaf

Surrealist Landscape with Feathered Object in Acrylic, Paper, and Gold Leaf
Vibrant and colorful surrealist landscape by Oregon artist Hugh Webb (American, b. 1940). The main subject of this piece is a large Y-shaped object that appears to be covered in feathers created out of small ovals of paper. The landscape is comprised of a striped ground, with wispy blue tree-like object emerging from holes in the ground. Squares of pastel blue, teal, and pink float throughout the scene. The background is made of layers of distressed gold leaf.
Unsigned, but was acquired from a collection of the artist's work.
