Alexandra Manukyan Art
Armenian, American, b. 1963
Alexandra Manukyan (b. 1963) is an Armenian-American artist whose figurative oil paintings merge Old Master techniques with contemporary symbolism and surrealist elements. Following extensive art training in Armenia and a successful two-decade career in fashion and graphic design after immigrating to Los Angeles in 1990, Manukyan transitioned to painting full-time in 2012. Her meticulously rendered works—predominantly in oil on Belgian linen—feature powerful female figures adorned in elaborate costumes personally designed and constructed by the artist. Through a distinctive "dramatic union of contrasts," Manukyan's paintings explore human connection, feminine strength, and humanity's relationship with the natural world. Her work has been widely exhibited at galleries specializing in contemporary representational art, including Abend Gallery, Copro Gallery, and Corey Helford Gallery, and has been recognized through prominent competitions like the Art Renewal Center Salon.to

Sacred Writings Religious and Mythological Narratives Florence Academy Oil
Located in Houston, TX
Samuel S.Hoskins Statement on Sacred Writing :
I sought to delve into the concept of sacred texts, encompassing both religious and mythological narratives. Unlike conventional books, these sacred texts are dynamic, evolving throughout an individual's lifetime and human history. Reading such a text in childhood carries distinct significance compared to revisiting it in later stages of life. To symbolize our transformative journey, I depicted a path leading into the forest, illustrating how our life experiences influence our connection with these profound literary works.
