Elaine Badgley Arnoux
There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe

2006-2008

About the Item

'There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe' from Badgley Arnoux's 'Important "Once Upon A Time" series, that exhibited throughout California in solo museum shows at The MAH — Museum of Art and History Santa Cruz, The Triton Museum, and The San Luis Obispo Museum of Contemporary Art. The grand oil on canvas painting is 72 x 66 inches and speaks to people young and old. The extraordinary woman artist, now in her 90's, continues to paint every day. She says in her documentary, 'Shadows and Light' directed by William Farley, "I was very old when I was young. I wasn't young until I was old". An incredible painting from an American woman artist who always played by her own rules. The messages in these autobiographical narratives, using Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes to examine the state of the world are beautifully executed and realized. This authentic “from the soul’ art is accomplished through the artist’s innate talent and her willingness to remain emotionally open and vulnerable.
