Domenico
Located in Cape Town, ZA
Craig Cameron-Mackintosh is a South African contemporary painter and filmmaker recognised for his distinctive oil portraits. His artistic journey began in 2015, after a decade-long hiatus from painting following high school. He initially pursued a degree in Motion Picture Medium, which has significantly influenced his artistic style, incorporating elements reminiscent of cinematography such as silhouettes and photographic effects like blurriness and overexposure.
Cameron-Mackintosh gained notable acclaim when he won the Sanlam Portrait Award in 2019 for his portrait titled "Lesela." His work often explores themes of identity and perception, particularly through the use of silhouette motifs that obscure traditional identifiers such as age and gender. He has also produced and directed documentaries, including "Billy Monk – Shot in the Dark," which chronicles the life of a prominent South African photographer.
‘Dominico’ formed part of his inclusion in EBONY/CURATED’s main booth at the 2023 Investec Cape Town Art Fair, where he exhibited alongside Anico Mostert, Feni Chulumanco, Ian Garrett, Ismail Yilmaz, Kimathi Mafafo, Rentia Retief, Richard Butler...

"Mini Mart", Human Figure, Portrait, Advertisement Motif, Acrylic on Wood
Located in Philadelphia, PA
"Mini Mart" is a piece by Qiaira Riley made from acrylic paint and paper on found wood. This piece measures measures 24"h x 24"w unframed.
"Inspired by the changing visual landscape of my hometown of Chicago, I created these works to explore how the gentrification of the south-side disrupts intimate, private memories associated with public spaces in the name of urban "renewal," even creating commodifiable opportunities to make community memories public and profitable, yet not sacred. I was attending a suburban private liberal arts college; many classmates often seemed obsessed with fantastical, cheap narratives about my community and the folks in it that deeply contrasted the memories of love and care I had grown up with. These works remember and reclaim these spaces while showing off my favorite public treasures, sights, and delicacies.
There are also odes to the sweet parts of my adolescence that I hope urban development will not shift: running around the city with my father, who has worked for the Chicago Park District for over 25 years, my mom getting me a 6 piece from Harold's Chicken whenever I got a good report card, or stopping by Zberry, the city's first black-woman owned froyo shop to get a treat after school. I moved to Philadelphia that same year with just two suitcases, my art supplies storage...

Portrait of a Lady, Oil on canvas, 18th English Century Painting
Located in London, GB
Oil on canvas
Image size: 22 x 20 inches (22.75 x 51 cm)
Pierced gilt frame
This half-length portrait shows the sitter with her head and eyes looking over her shoulder, to the right. She is dressed in a delicate blue dress and blue shawl with her hair tied up away from her face. The composition of the painting is simple but effective; the woman stands out and is the undeniable focus of the viewer's attention.
George Romney's artistic style is characterised by its focus on the beauty and elegance of human forms. Here, one can appreciate his ability to capture the delicacy of facial features and the soft textures of clothing. In addition, Romney has used a soft and diffuse brushstroke technique that creates a light and soft effect in the work. The dark and diffused background highlights the young woman's figure even more, creating an effect of depth and realism.
It is possible that this sitter is Miss Anne Dutton.
George Romney
Romney was a fashionable portrait painter of late 18th-century English society. In his portraits Romney avoided delving into the character or sensibilities of the sitter. His great success with his society patrons depended largely on just this ability for dispassionate flattery. Line rather than colour dominates; the flowing rhythms and easy poses of Roman classical sculpture underlie the smooth patterns of his compositions.
From 1755 to 1757 Romney was the pupil of Christopher Steele, an itinerant portrait and genre painter. Romney’s career began when he toured the northern English counties painting portraits for a few guineas each. In 1762 he went to London. His history painting The Death of General Wolfe won him an award from the Society of Arts; nonetheless he turned almost immediately to portrait painting. In 1764 he paid his first visit to Paris, where he was befriended by Joseph Vernet. Romney especially admired the work of Nicolas Le Sueur, whose use of the antique strongly appealed to him. In 1773 he went to Italy for two years, where he studied Raphael’s Stanze frescoes in Rome, Titian’s paintings...

"Botanica" Oil Painting 20" x 14" inch by Andrey Remnev
ARTIST BIO:
"My birth place is Yakhroma town, in the vicinity of Moscow. It is situated on high hills, from where broad Bruegelian vistas are open. The uneven terrain with significant differences of high and low; a canal between the Moskva river and the Volga; small rivers, woods and villages; a nearby ancient town of Dmitrov, which is equal to Moscow in age; ships cruising the canal and trains outdistancing them – all this I saw from my window since my early years. It was a view that embraced all the diversity of the world. This is why I can say that the impressions of my childhood and youth – beautiful nature and remarkable people – are the most important ones.
In the museum of Moscow's St. Andronic Monastery I copied the best examples of the old Russian painting...
