Olga Antonova
SELF PORTRAIT WITH SCARF - Female Portrait with Muted Colors and Gold Earrings

1989

About the Item

Perhaps it is her skill in portraiture which renders such strength to Olga Antonova’s still life paintings. Beneath her brush, technically “inanimate” objects come alive with a vibrancy and depth of character that make a viewer want to know their history. Each curve of kettle or teacup rounds the bend, just out of sight, beckoning us nearer. Russian-born Painter Olga Antonova trained at the Repin Institute in Saint Petersburg and specializes in still life paintings of shiny kettles and porcelain china cups and plates, as well as quirky self-portraits in extravagant outfits and playful hats.

  • CATHERINE 6 - Contemporary Realism / Figurative Art / Blonde
    By Stephen Wright
    Located in New York, NY
    The individuals in Stephen Wright’s work confront us visually and psychologically. His paintings tend to transfix. Standing before them, one is drawn in by the intent gaze of a woman, the slumped figure of a nude man, or the averted face of someone lost in reverie. Wright paints mainly solo subjects. They seem always to be slightly removed – yet they challenge, perplex, and attract us. In the manner of the British figurative painters, Wright emphasizes the surface of his canvases, manipulating layers of paint and leaving evidence of his brushwork. Like Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon, and even Jenny Saville...
