About the Item

Nan Hass Feldman's “Friends in the Floating World" is a 28 x 22 x 1.5 inch oil painting on panel in an energetic composition of birds, fans, kimonos, flowers and dolls in deep blue, teal, and black with rich pastels and touches of red. "The Floating World” series is inspired by a visit to Japan. The artist writes, "I loved the gifts which I bought for my two granddaughters: fans, kimono coasters, fish and plant handkerchiefs, and some lovely postcards. In this painting I also reference Japan’s Edo period, a time of elegance and beauty. This painting with its colorful patterning and detail is meant to be joyful and invite you into my made-up world."

Her works, whether Landscapes or Interiors are interpreted through her screen of selective seeing, playful detail, heightened color, and bits of fantasy.
