About the Item

An impressionistic depiction of a Saint-Cloud factory porcelain vase ca. 1695–1710 with a burst of flowers exploding with color and bold marks. Alfaro bridges the Baroque cultural movement onto his canvases with precision, juxtaposing a romanticized drama that entices the viewer with powerful storytelling. The Saint-Cloud vase was originally inspired by Chinese porcelain making, both in its form and blue-and-white color scheme, the vase is painted in a manner that combines Renaissance grotesque elements based on etchings by Jacques Androuet du Cerceau (ca. 1510/20–1585/6) with the contemporary designs by Jean Berain (1637–1711). Alfaro perfectly unites the history of these important ceramics combining elements of a contemporary hand which offers a completely fresh vision in these works. The way the flowers are scrapped from side to side tells a story of movement and passion, history is neither lost nor ignored, and it is presented with rejuvenation as the flowers reflect life and new opportunities. This piece is signed lower right and titled on the back, it comes ready to be displayed on gallery wrap canvas and hanging wire on verso. Art measures 60 x 60 inches Eric Alfaro was born in 1991 and is best known for his lily pad series, Koi fish, and Saint-Cloud porcelain vases with flowers. Alfaro is a Cuban artist recognized for his distinct contemporary style that blends elements of the past with today’s fast-paced lifestyle. He graduated from the Academy of Arts in Cuba and APAP (Provincial Academy of FINE Arts) Raúl Martínez of Morón, Ciego de Ávila, Cuba. Now based in the United States, Alfaro is inspired by history and the great impressionists of the 19th Century. He describes his current artist expression as having been influenced by the great painters of different periods in history, working in various styles, hyperrealism is present in a large portion of his compositions.   His paintings have been exhibited internationally, participating in exhibitions in several events and art institutions like MOCANOMI (Museum of Contemporary Art of North Miami ) and Contemporary Art Fairs in Miami, New York, Italy, and Luxembourg. He has participated in various exhibitions such as the “Copperfest” Arts Festival in North Miami, Florida, United States; and at the “Paratissima” Contemporary Art Fair in Torino, Italy. His pieces can also be found in private art collections in Cuba, the United States and abroad, as well as permanent collections from institutions like the Copperbridge Art Foundation; the company F&F Media Corp., and in the collection of the Lincoln Center Orchestra, in New York.   His artworks have been published in the Spanish magazine CdeCuba Art Magazine, Artists & illustrator’s Magazine from the UK, International Artist Magazine in the US, and The Four Seasons Magazine. Also in two published books that showcase a selection of his works from the earliest moments (beginnings) in his career until 2021. In recent years Alfaro’s works can be found in the public space, creating several large murals in the city of Miami.   From 2010 to the present date he has been developing his work between painting, drawing, and sculpture through different series ranging from portraiture to landscape. His approach and his results are constantly evolving as he perfects his style. With an extensive artistic career, Alfaro is motivated by romanticism, bold brushwork, and thirst for storytelling, as he approaches each project with total enthusiasm and dedication, always looking for the next opportunity to reflect his everyday experiences through his artistic expression.

Floral Bouquet (Lively Still Life Oil Painting of Flowers on Canvas)
By Dale Payson
Located in Hudson, NY
Oil painting on canvas, unframed 32 x 27 inches This still life oil painting of a bouquet of vibrant lilies, roses and irises was painted by Hudson Valley-based artist Dale Payson. The range of canary and pastel yellows, emerald green, beige and burnt umber hues that span the canvas are complimented by Payson's skillfully executed impasto technique. Payson captures the essence of her subject matter and abstracts it in the same stroke, rendering each painting somewhere between representation and interpretation. About the artist: Payson studied extensively at the School of Visual Arts in New York and eventually taught at this prestigious institution. Before painting became her sole ambition, she was a freelance book illustrator and has more than 25 books to her credit. Dale Payson also studied under Robert...
