Stefanie Bales
An Impressionist Acrylic & Mixed Media on Canvas Painting, "Seaside Noonday"

2023

About the Item

A one of a kind 16x12 Impressionist Acrylic & Mixed Media on Canvas Painting executed by artist Stefanie Bales. A certificate of authenticity will be provided upon its purchase or delivery. All of Stefanie Bales’ work reflects on the surreal, ethereal, and metaphysical state of daydreaming, and the fragmented ways in which we perceive memories. Bales draws and expands upon this feeling in her practice, creating majestic scenes that feel simultaneously personal and ubiquitous. Her work reminds us of that collective feeling that we all share when witnessing a magnificent sunset — the profound acknowledgment that we all share the same sky. None of the landscapes are geographically specific, rather, they are composites of numerous topologies blended harmoniously into one larger “place”. Regarding the creation of her pieces, Bales explains, “I’ve developed and honed an original process that I use to compose much of my work. My process is similar to collage, but instead of cut and paste, I’m using an original ‘ink transfer’ process to transfer bits of texture and imagery onto the canvas which I then paint within, over, and around, responding intuitively to the transferred piece as I continue to build out imagery and form the larger narrative and composition. My aim is that the viewer sees the work as a whole, and it isn’t until further investigation that the incongruities that give it its ‘dream-like’ qualities are noticed.” Her works are Bales’ attempt to make tangible and permanent all of the magnificent and ineffable things in life that are so easy to miss or to take for granted.

Impressionistic Cityscape Acrylic Painting, "Golden Skies No. 39"
Located in San Diego, CA
This is a one-of-a-kind original acrylic and gold leaf still life painting by San Diego artist, Duke Windsor. Its dimensions are 18"x36"x1.5". It is unframed. A certificate of authenticity will follow delivery. Windsor’s success as a contemporary artist lies in his ability to infuse ordinary subject matter with his own ingenuity. Windsor’s wealth of occupations and personal drive have shaped the foundation of his creative spirit. Through observation of the traditional American Way, Windsor finds his most powerful subject matter. The gold in his contemporary icons elicit consideration for reverence, love, compassion, and courage in our world. Gold leaf is the color of extravagance, wealth, riches, and excess which exerts a hypnotic attraction and evokes a very celestial, reverent feeling towards the serenity of the subject. "The Golden Skies series came about after several years of experimenting with new ways to create my urban/rural cityscape scenes in a fresh way. I was inspired to utilize gold leaf after seeing the biopic film, Klimt. In the movie, Klimt (John Malkovich) is working the “Adele Bloch-Bauer” portrait, and in the scene, he was applying gold leaf on the painting. Later while visiting the Timken Museum in Balboa Park, I viewed the collection of Russian Icons on wood...
