Last Light on the San Juans
Located in Denver, CO
Like the Westerns I grew up with, my own work is camouflaged in a veil of nostalgia. The figures in my work are often portrayed against a stark background. This forces the viewer to recognize the myth before the critique exposes itself. I work from observation and my imagination using watercolor and traditional printmaking methods. The figurative images I create are heavily researched. By using the West, a subject that I am both familiar with and continue to question, I aim to engage with our inherent perceptions of the past and the myths embedded within. - Jed Webster Smith

Portrait of a Lady with her Hair Adorned with Flowers, 18th Century French
Located in London, GB
Oil on canvas
Image size: 21 1/2 x 17 3/4 inches (55 x 45 cm)
Original gilt frame
In this portrait this young woman is depicted facing forward with her head slightly raised and turned left towards the viewer. She is dressed in a blue satin dress. The low-cut drapery, exposing her décolletage, was not unusual for the time as 18th century women would often wear their dresses off-the-shoulder or fitted with a very open neckline.
Her perfectly oval face is enlivened by wide brown eyes, full cheeks and a mouth that sketches a half smile. Her cheeks rose with blush, which was a popular cosmetic style during the Rococo period and contrasts with her ivory skin and powdered hair. Her tied hair is studded with many flowers and the ribbon around the woman's throat accentuates her bare neck.
Alexander Roslin
Alexander Roslin was one of the most important portrait painters of Europe in the 18th century. He was born in Malmö in Sweden but soon moved into Europe to paint at various royal courts. From 1750 on he worked mainly in Paris. Here he was destined to achieve great success. He had collected letters of recommendation on his journey through Europe, including that of the Duchess of Parma, the sister-in-law of Louis XV.
Soon he was admitted to the court and the Royal Academy in Paris and when he married in 1759 he was the most wanted artist in Paris for portraits. He was married to the miniature painter Marie Suzanne Giroust. Although he painted mainly French nobility...

Out of Sight 1
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
"Out of Sight" by Chinedu Chidebe: An Artistic Exploration of the Human Condition
Chinedu Chidebe's artwork "Out of Sight" is a powerful expression of the human condition. The artwork is a mixed media piece that incorporates acrylic paint and oil on canvas. At first glance, the artwork appears to be a chaotic mess of lines and colors. However, upon closer inspection, the piece reveals a deep and thoughtful exploration of the hidden aspects of the human experience.
The painting is dominated by a large central figure, which appears to be a representation of the human form. The figure is twisted with its long neck and round ears of lines and colors. The figure's face contorted in agony.
Chidebe's artwork is a poignant exploration of the hidden aspects of the human experience. The twisted and contorted central figure suggests the pain and suffering that many people experience in their lives. The surrounding calm suggests the confusion and disorientation that can often accompany difficult experiences. The patch of blue...

Girl With Harpoon - Florence, Italy, 2020
Located in Hudson, NY
ABOUT
Born in 1967, Piussi was raised in Florence where he studied at the Istituto d’arte, majoring in sculpture and painting and completing his artistic education at Milano’s Brera Art Academy. He lives in Florence, pursuing painting, bas-reliefs in terracotta and in bronze, and bronze sculpture.
Piussi presents an ideal, almost childlike world which can be found below everyday events, a step outside the flow of time, yet still a part of contemporary life, with a nod to Alex Katz and David Hockney. The drama, or lack thereof, is played out in simplified, almost abstract spaces. Pure in intent, Piussi’s oeuvre are inspired by the Early Renaissance.
Snapshot images of a world reduced to its essence, the apparently comic-book style has echoes of Giotto, Paolo Uccello, of medieval illuminations. Rather than mimicking the appearance of nature, Piussi reaches for its essence, without distracting details. Women stand on the shore of quintessentially peaceful seas, self-contained, at ease, unwitting replicas of classical goddesses - a proud diver echoes Neptune holding a trident.
