Artist Statement “As an artist, I believe that my work is not confined to a single medium. For me, art is a way of interacting with the world around me and reimagining it in unique and inspiring ways. I began my artistic journey as a photographer, which taught me how to truly see the beauty and essence of my subjects. Photography is always my starting point. Later I fell in love with brush work and so as a separate but equally important practice I discovered I could be a 3-dimensional storyteller reinterpreting my captures into a new collection. My art represented by local and international galleries. I live immersed in the beauty of our natural world, fascinated by the interplay of elements and how they shape our perceptions. With my camera as my starting point, I study surfaces and textures, manipulating light to reveal new dimensions of shape and form. I seek out those moments that blur the line between realism and abstraction, offering viewers a fresh perspective on familiar subjects. Through my work, I aim to evoke emotions and connect with the viewers, whether it’s through the energy and joy of an “electric current” or the peaceful serenity of kaleidoscopic ripples. At the heart of my practice is the dance of light and energy, capturing the moment ‘in between’. I work in many mediums but primarily Oil & Acrylic with textural mediums.” – Nikki Baxendale

- "Moonlit River Scene", Early 20th Century Oil on Canvas by Luis Graner y ArrufiBy Luis Graner Y ArrufiLocated in Madrid, ESLUIS GRANER Y ARRUFI Spanish, 1863 - 1929 MOONLIT RIVER SCENE signed and dated "L. Graner, 1925" (lower right) Oil on canvas 20-1/8 X 30 inches (51X 76 cm.) framed: 25-3/4 X 35-3/4 inches (65 X 90.5 cm.) PROVENANCE NEAL AUCTION COMPANY, New Orleans, LA, USA Private Collection, Barcelona Graner paints this work, Moonlit on the river, during his stay in the United States in the last stage of his artistic life, from 1910 to 1928, in full stage of maturity. This artwork reflects the constant search of the artist for the effects of light in his work. This persistent concern for light remains throughout his artistic life, which he learned in his Parisian stage under the influence of the painter Frances Platour. The silver light of the moon and the small lights at distance, which are tiny foci of artificial light, reflecting the river water, forming a chromatic range of greens, ocher and pearly that give a certain mystery to the composition, creating a modern approach to the landscape, by placing the two large trees at the edge of the river in the foreground Luís Graner y Arrufí, Spanish (1863–1929) was a Catalan painter in the Realistic style. He was born in Barcelona, and studied at the Escola de la Llotja from 1883, with Antoni Caba (color/composition) and Benet Mercadé (drawing). During his final year at school, he received a grant to study in Madrid, where he copied and learned from the Old Masters at the Museo del Prado. After that, supported by a fellowship, he moved to Paris and became a member of the Academie des Beaux-Arts. Later, he returned to Barcelona, but continued to travel to cities throughout Europe, including Berlin, Munich and Düsseldorf. Influenced by Richard Wagner's concept of "Gesamtkunstwerk" (Total Work of Art), he was motivated to create his own total art experience and organized the "Sala Mercè" (Mercy Hall) in Barcelona's Rambla District. The project involved contributors from every artistic discipline, including the new field of cinematography. The room was decorated by Antoni Gaudí. Other participants included Adrià Gual, Santiago Rusiñol, Ramon Casas...Category
