Jessica Oliveras
"Píntame Angelitos Negros" – Figurative Oil Painting With Patterned Veil and Sur

About the Item

Jessica Oliveras's "Píntame angelitos negros" is a striking, original figurative painting executed in oil, oil stick, and marker on linen. This richly layered work measures 21.65 x 18.11 x 1.37 inches and features a front-facing figure partially veiled in an elaborately patterned magenta and cobalt textile. The subject’s gaze emerges with intensity, set against an abstract backdrop of lilac, periwinkle, and rose tones that evoke surreal dreamscapes and shifting interiority. The textile, adorned with paisley motifs, serves both as garment and canvas, enveloping the figure in layers of cultural resonance and visual complexity. Fragments of pink cloth float weightlessly in the upper register, while dynamic blue brushstrokes shard across the composition, creating a sense of kinetic energy. The piece integrates classical portraiture with contemporary mark-making, resulting in a visual dialogue between the real and imagined. Unframed but ready to hang, the canvas edges are thoughtfully painted in coordinating hues to maintain the integrity of the work from all angles. Collectors will appreciate the artist’s refined technique and evocative symbolism, as well as the way Oliveras blends realism with abstraction through layered media and vibrant, contrasting color. This painting stands as a powerful and poetic entry within Jessica Oliveras’s broader body of work, which often explores identity, heritage, and spirituality through intricate compositions and expressive materials.

Sacred Writings Religious and Mythological Narratives Florence Academy Oil
Located in Houston, TX
Samuel S.Hoskins Statement on Sacred Writing : I sought to delve into the concept of sacred texts, encompassing both religious and mythological narratives. Unlike conventional books, these sacred texts are dynamic, evolving throughout an individual's lifetime and human history. Reading such a text in childhood carries distinct significance compared to revisiting it in later stages of life. To symbolize our transformative journey, I depicted a path leading into the forest, illustrating how our life experiences influence our connection with these profound literary works.
