Kevin Sloan
Still-life with Sun Rise

2024

About the Item

A cheeky still-life with a wry surprise, "Still-life with Sun Rise" is a work by Kevin Sloan that turns heads. A butterfly lands lightly on the stem of an orange accompanied by a sea shell in the foreground of the composition. This scene overlooks a pastoral scene which on first glance appears to be merely lush and effervescent as it extends to touch a blue sky in the distance. However, upon closer examination we find that, of a trio of palm trees which greet the viewer, one is aflame and interrupting the otherwise peaceful scene.

  • 'Bath of an Artist, ' by Tunde Darvay, Acrylic Painting on Canvas, 2014
    By Tunde Darvay
    Located in Oklahoma City, OK
    This 32.75" x 61.75" acrylic on canvas painting by Romanian artist, Tunde Darvay, features a wood frame of the artists' making. The horizontal mystical landscape is brightly painted with predominant colors of reds, blues, and greens. Surrealistic figures and animals emerge from the landscape and float out into space through the painted frame. "It is a special piece because instead of painting on wood, as I usually do, here I am reaching back to a somewhat more traditional way of painting on canvas. It is a statement of aesthetic credo depicting an artist who having finished one of her paintings is going through a symbolic rebirth. She is going through a ritual purification by divesting herself of her old self and taking responsibility for her views, principles, and emotions as she is boldly facing a society that is very different from her. " - Tunde Darvay "Influenced by the unique rural landscapes of Transylvania, the place where I was born and have spent most of my life, my paintings emphasize the shadow-line between the organic and the inorganic. My aesthetic worldview is profoundly mythical: it depicts a world in which color breathes life into inanimate things in order to conjure up playful, suggestive associations along a broad spectrum of themes and forms. Houses have smiling or grinning doors, cheerful, winking, or teary windows, depending on their moody personalities. Chimneys protrude as if they were limbs. Trees hold hands and dance together, witnessed by the curious glance of birds, cats, and fish from behind the bushes...
