"Muse of Mystery", Encaustic, Oil, and Paper on Wood
Located in Detroit, MI
Celebrating our common colors as well as our diversity is Linden Godlove’s latest series of encaustics, “The Muses.” The paintings are modeled after icons, with a direct gaze that hearkens a response to their spirit, to find company in their character. This particular piece is the "Muse of Mystery" and is part of a set of nine that are sold separately from one another. Encaustic painting is an ancient art form (some early icons are encaustic), where hot wax is mixed with pigment and resin, and painted while liquid. Throughout the process, everything is repeatedly fused with fire and sometimes things melt in an unintended direction. Linden’s process involves repeatedly carving parts out and filling them back in, so the works are splayed out in a loose application of hot liquid, then cut back, then washed over with brushes of hot wax again. It’s a combination of chaos and control. The series draws inspiration from women all over the globe, as originally photographed by Mihaela Noroc for her book The Atlas of Beauty. A portion of the proceeds from these sales will go towards her project. While internationally influenced, the pieces were painted, scraped, and carved at the artist’s hundred year old Detroit...

Psychological Portrait of Girl with Dog Spanish Figurative Oil Canvas Painting
Located in Sitges, Barcelona
Psychological Portrait of Girl with Dog Spanish Figurative Oil Painting 1974 Artist: José Antonio Castro Cadenas Title: Girl with Dog Date: 1974 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 73 × 54 cm (28.7 × 21.3 in) Signature: Signed and dated lower left Frame: Unframed Condition: Very good overall condition. Stable support and paint layer. Description A refined psychological portrait depicting a young girl holding her small companion dog, painted in 1974 by Spanish figurative artist José Antonio Castro Cadenas. The composition is structured around the direct, introspective gaze of the sitter, creating an immediate emotional dialogue with the viewer. The dog’s slightly diverted attention introduces a subtle narrative counterpoint, adding tension and quiet movement within the otherwise serene arrangement. Executed in a restrained palette of muted pinks, greys and softened whites, the painting conveys the lyrical atmosphere characteristic of Spanish figurative portraiture of the 1970s. The artist’s controlled modelling of the face and hands reveals strong academic training combined with a poetic sensitivity typical of mature postwar Spanish realism. Portraits of children accompanied by animals hold a special place within European figurative painting and remain particularly sought after by collectors interested in narrative intimacy and psychological presence. A compelling and elegant example of Spanish figurative painting from the second half of the twentieth century. Biography José Antonio Castro Cadenas (Córdoba, 1926–2006) was a Spanish figurative painter known for the tonal refinement and psychological sensitivity of his portraits and figure compositions. He developed most of his artistic career in Córdoba and exhibited on several occasions at Galería Studio–Juan Bernier, an important venue for the promotion of twentieth-century Andalusian art. His work includes portraits, female figures, hunting scenes, equestrian compositions and landscapes distinguished by solid draftsmanship and harmonious chromatic balance. Today his production forms part of the tradition of Spanish figurative painting that preserved narrative and emotional realism throughout the second half of the twentieth century. The painting resonates with the introspective atmosphere found in the work of Antonio López García, as well as the poetic figurative tradition associated with Julio Romero de Torres and the broader lineage of Spanish psychological portraiture. Its quiet stillness and emotional restraint also echo the intimate portrait sensibility seen in twentieth-century European figurative painters working between realism and lyrical modernity. This positioning situates the work within the continuity of postwar Spanish figurative painting that remained committed to atmosphere, silence and psychological depth rather than abstraction.

They are each solitary, but connected to each other, as are we.
