About the Item

Craddock’s floral paintings are loci for memory, spanning more than a decade and various dwellings. Sharing a kindred spirit with such artists as Jane Freilicher and Lois Dodd, Craddock uses the still life genre to hint at an autobiographical subtext. This painting is part of a collection of intimate paintings encapsulates Craddock’s experience during the pandemic in the Hudson Valley, New York. Created in the midst of COVID-isolation, Craddock’s still lifes are quiet riots of color and texture, often evoking a journal-like quality with their scale. The blooms, resplendent in their brief prime, mark the passage of time in these tightly composed pieces. In this context, Craddock’s focus on the flowers’ color variations and textures is all-consuming; a welcome escape from the fraught world of that time. Many of these floral arrangements gracefully share the stage with distant landscapes, inviting viewers to contemplate both inner and outer worlds. The scenes themselves offer an immediate sensory experience, encompassing atmospheric conditions and the play of natural light. Though the feathery quality of Craddock’s brushstrokes recalls her plein air paintings, these works transcend mere representation and evoke a temporal distance. The pastoral scenes are reminiscent of the artist’s long history of landscape painting, reaching even further back to a time when she was working in her New York City loft of over 40 years. In the foreground, Craddock’s blossoms are transformed into memento mori, talismen of the ephemerality of life. The linear, geometric windows, placemats, and picture frames of the middle ground stand in formal contrast to the organic shapes within the compositions. Craddock’s windows introduce abstract elements to her paintings and intensify the distance between the viewer and the artist’s past.
