About the Item

“wishbone” is a 16 x 20 x .25 inch acrylic painting on canvas board by Sandra Cohen. This abstract internal 'landscape', in vibrant and warm colors of burgundy, pink, red, cream, and yellow, blends multiple layers of paint and washes with expressive brushstrokes and destroyed bits of rythmic geometrical textures. Overhanging tree branches and a fading group of down-pointing triangles peek from the top of a loosely painted background of creamy pinks, yellows and ochres. Towards the middle of the painting, obscured lines of perspective converge behind a central fiery burst of hot pinks and reds extending it's elliptical 'wishbone' shape onto the right side. This ethereal figure appears to float slightly above an echoing shadow amid a rising vapour of blue and brown circular patterns, dotted forms, and destroyed bits of text. The painting feels emotional and introspective, like an internal landscape or a visual meditation. It balances tension and calm—an interplay between the raw emotion at the center and a dreamy precipice of a serenity in its atmospheric base. This painting is unframed and signed on the back. Sandra Cohen’s dreamlike painting and mixed media work explores the paradoxical nature she finds everywhere. Cohen layers a constantly shifting ground of memory with snippets of lyrics, invasive ‘earworms’, and the human tendency to create order from chaos. Music is intimately entwined with memory for Cohen, who has been a performing musician and songwriter. She also has a deep interest in science, especially the concepts of modern physics. Using techniques that vary from wet to dry and tight to loose, and processes that may weave between digital and tactile, the act of creating the work also reflects what she hopes emerges: glimpses of a true/false spectrum wavering into being as lustrous, rhythmic, and often darkly humorous hybrids. Cohen is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.

The Return of Spring (Modern Abstract Acrylic Painting in Pink, Yellow, & Gold)
By Ragellah Rourke
Located in Hudson, NY
Abstract acrylic painting on canvas with a pastel pink, yellow, and gold palette “The Return of Spring”, painted by Ragellah Rourke in 2019 48 x 36 inches, acrylic on canvas Sides are cleanly painted so additional framing is optional Wire backing for easy hanging Artist signature located on the back This contemporary, abstract painting was created by Hudson Valley based artist, Ragellah Rourke in 2019. Her most recent body of work focuses on relationships between color and space. Elements of symbolism, reminiscent of Gustav Klimt, decorate the composition with abstract markings and calligraphic gestural brushwork. Warm yellow and gold tones with hints of green radiate upwards into a background of pastel pink, recalling the awaking the nature during the beginning of spring. There is wire installed on the back for easy hanging. The painting’s sides are cleanly painted so additional framing is optional. Artist Statement: My paintings are very textural and built up slowly over long periods of time. The surface holds the memory of the painting’s development, all the time looking for clues for what will come next. I look for connections between the forms that develop. They are never something that I logically calculate, but rather a long string of chances, thoughts, and guesses. The appearance and meaning develop throughout the progression of the painting. It is a continuous search for resolution, balance and mystery within the painting.
