About the Item

Afternoon Repose, Original Contemporary Impressionist Still Life Interior Painting, 2018 36" x 36" x 1.5" (HxWxD) Acrylic on Canvas Hand-signed by the artist. A cozy interior scene painted in an impressionist style, this work by artist Ingrid Dohm transports the viewer. A floral bouquet of bright roses and other blue blossoms is on display in painted ceramic vase on a small round table, alongside a smaller pot of white roses, a platter of peaches, and a yellow-covered book just waiting to be opened. The oranges and reds from the peaches and roses is continued in the thick curtain that is pulled back to reveal a large window and balcony, a common layout in Paris, France, which allows for a view of another building of flats and their various window boxes. A chair sits in the bottom right hand corner, inviting the viewer to sit and take in the world around them. Artist Commentary: This is an original acrylic on canvas interior still life painting. Artist Biography: Born and raised in a small town in Austria near forests, glens and mountains, Ingrid Dohm was constantly seeking out varied kinds of floral beauty. During the summer months, in a high mountain lake enclosure, she and her siblings would make daylong forays into the forests solely to see what kinds of flowers they could encounter. A difficult find, but a most sought after one, was the edelweiss. One had to climb up the side of a mountain to see edelweiss growing as an outcropping in the rocks. This was the trophy of the day! Another favored sight was the Christrose, commonly called the Schneerose or snow rose, because it could be seen popping up out of the snow covered ground. In school Ingrid was always fascinated with any instrument be it pen, pencil or crayon, that could make anything from a straight line to a complicated image. She never understood this strong attraction for art supplies, or the connection between that attraction and her love of nature. It wasn’t until Ingrid came to the United States and married that the association was made. A casual remark by her husband, that she had a natural talent and propensity to draw and paint, made her realize that she ought to get going. A starter paint kit was purchased and that’s the beginning of the story.
