About the Item
Artist Comments
This painting is part of Lisa Elley's newest series using a "deep impasto" technique. The paint is applied in thick strokes, creating a very sculptural effect. In a short time, Lisa has received acclaim for the series. This year, she was selected out of hundreds of artists to be Wente Vineyards's artist in residence. Pieces from her Deep Impasto series will be featured throughout the year on their top releases.
About the Artist
Working almost exclusively with a palette knife, Lisa Elley maneuvers her artistic blade with an uncanny fluidity. Why paint only with the knife? She says, "when I paint with a brush, which I do occasionally, I tend to focus on the detail. With a palette knife I can't focus on the detail too much, so my paintings are looser, and more gestural, with bigger sweeps and strokes." This technique is called wet-on-wet. And it seems to be quite popular, as she has been bestowed the title "Knife Queen" by her facebook fans. Fun fact: Lisa's high school art teacher told her to study harder at math, as a career in art was "impossible."

- The Green Arrow, Oil PaintingBy Jose H. AlvarengaLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
In classical vintage style, artist Jose H. Alvarenga imposes his spin on still-life pieces with an action figure on top of lettered toy blocks. "I bought the whole collection of the DC comic characters and decided to paint this figurine of the Green Arrow," narrates Jose. He paints variations of green through neutralizing, brightening, and blending. Jose colors a block red for a complete contrast opposite to green.About the Artist
Jose’s soft still life paintings are like visual puns. He creates relationships between objects that evoke both amusement and contemplation in the viewer. By devising a clever dialogue between objects, Jose turns a still life into a story. Jose utilizes a classical realist style with a gentle nod to surrealism through his unique subject selections. He is inspired by everyday objects, particularly those with a quality of nostalgia, memory, or humor. Jose paints out of his Los Angeles area apartment, where he also enjoys playing the keyboard and reading art books.Words that describe this painting: figurine, classical realism, still life, comics, Harnett, alphabet blocks...

Artist Comments
Artist Jose H. Alvarenga paints a representational composition of a hundred-dollar bill and a lighter. He uses clever symbolism in this charming still life. He paints a fire sticker on top to give the impression that the money has been lit. He adds trails of smoke from the bill to give an illusion that it is burning.About the Artist
