Anita Kapraljevic Figurative Paintings
Croatian
Drawing is the path in which Anita Kapraljevic subconsciously encounter new image ideas. Another approach of finding image motives, is through research in art history. In Anita Kapraljevic paintings, the overlapping of signs, times and spaces is somewhat inspired by dreams. She works with a layering technique in which color is laid out and my style merges figuration and abstraction. New ideas emerging from a seemingly arbitrary combination of different contents: found pictorial materials, inspiration from reading ,experiencing and dreaming. Every new place, that Anita Kapraljevic work in, influences her creative process in ways that are unpredictable. From the experience and its processing, new images and ideas emerge for presentation.
She work in the media drawing, painting, social sculpture and happening. In painting, she focus on figuration, portraying and the unconscious side of the human psyche.
In order to broaden the boundaries of painting and make them tangible for others in their creative process, she merge performance and painting. For example, she portrayed the visitors of the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna in a copy of the "Last Judgment" by Hironymus Bosch 2012 and 2014.

The piece showed painting as a process highlighting it‘s performativ potential a prominent aspect in other collaborative works of the Artist. Working with Anita Kapraljevic, she is passionate about her work, Open for dialogue and skilled enough to realize her unique and creative way.

Anubis Reimagined: Abstract Figurative Painting, Mythological & Surreal Themes
By Michele Mikesell
Located in Dallas, TX
This captivating oil painting by Michele Mikesell is a striking fusion of abstract and figurative styles, masterfully crafted on a large 51 x 38-inch canvas (130 x 97 cm). Titled "Anubis Reimagined", this piece embodies an evocative exploration of mythological and surreal themes. The central figure, elongated and adorned with a crown-like element, exudes an enigmatic presence, reminiscent of ancient Egyptian deities merged with contemporary abstract expressionism.
The muted gray-green background, punctuated by delicate marks and textures, serves as a minimalist stage that accentuates the vivid colors and layered details within the figure. Subtle strokes of bold yellows, reds, and blues blend seamlessly with the raw textures, creating a sense of depth and intrigue. This artwork invites viewers to interpret its narrative while showcasing Mikesell’s signature style—a harmonious balance of mystery, abstraction, and symbolism.
Perfect for collectors and art enthusiasts seeking a bold yet contemplative centerpiece, this painting complements modern, eclectic, and minimal interiors alike. Its large-scale format and compelling design make it ideal for gallery walls, luxury residences, or professional spaces.
