Girona Pause - Realistic Architectural Oil Painting
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
Throughout this piece Pylant explores the concept of impossible spaces, by creating urban scenes that blend into nature, creating portals within the artwork.
The juxtaposition of urban and natural gives the artwork a surreal sense that immerses the viewer with a comforting sense of familiarity. By incorporating scenes of the present with imagery from past memories, Pylant develops a dialogue between past and future, creating a compelling and striking image that completely absorbs the viewer in its serene beauty.
Moreover, the artist often combines imagery from her travels to Italy, Spain and throughout Europe with memories of her childhood home in North Carolina. The artwork is framed in a silver wooden frame measuring 32 x 42 inches.

La Prima Pietra-Ancient Architectural Arched Doorways Leading to Lush Landscape
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
Meticulously rendered stone archways lead to a stone path meandering into a lush landscape in Carol Pylant's stunning architectural painting entitled "La Prima Pietra". The pristine space suggest inner solitude and peace. This calm continues through the archway and into the rich green landscape beyond the walls. The artist often combines imagery from her travels to Italy, Spain and throughout Europe with memories of elsewhere. The artwork is framed in a heavy black wooden frame with a silver inset adding to the richness of the piece. It measures 36.5 x 42.5 inches framed.

Uscita - Large Scale Trompe L'oeil Gardenscape Inspired by Ancient Roman Frescos
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
"Uscita" takes Inspiration from ancient Italian frescos originally found at the Villa di Livia outside of Rome. The trompe l'oeil frescos were from a subterranean room used for dining. The lush gardens gave the dinner guests the illusion of dining alfresco. Here Pylant took particular notice of the flora and fauna painted over 2000 years ago only to discover they were species that were also present at her then North Carolina studio. The artist adds an architectural element to the gardenscape to suggest a portal from the past into the present. This exploration of the ancient world and its connection to the present is a central theme running through Pylant's work.

La Villa di Livia V, Gardenscape Taken from Ancient Roman Frescos, Oil on Paper
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
In this series, the artist takes Inspiration from ancient Italian frescos originally found at the Villa di Livia outside of Rome. The frescos are from the subterranean room used for dining. The lush gardens gave the dinner guests the illusion of dining alfresco. This exploration of the past and its connection to the present is a central theme running through Pylant's work. Here Pylant takes particular notice of the flora and fauna which was also present at her then North Carolina studio. This work is framed and measures 14.75h x 14w inches.

View from the Train: Cityscape Oil Painting, View of Brooklyn
By Patty Neal
Located in Hudson, NY
View from the Train, 2019
24" X 40" x 1", oil on canvas
This contemporary oil painting depicting a metropolitan view is the work of realist painter Patty Neal. The painting offers an intimate view of the city, as seen from a window, as it peeks from behind two metal structures. The dark browns and bright golds beautifully compliment the dusty blue, gray sky. Neal works highlight everyday city scenes, utilitarian infrastructure, and industrial or electrical apparatus.
Artist statement:
A life is an accumulation of experiences: visual, emotional and mental. By compartmentalizing these snippets of life we create boundaries. The focus of my work for many years has been the exploration of these various life aspects and how they are bound together or bound from each other. My process is often literally composed of boundaries. I make a painting by putting together multiple panels, or I segment a single panel into separate visual spaces. The works are made up of pieces or elements of city and landscape. While exploring the concepts of boundaries I play with visual “reality.” Sometimes I combine images that are upside down with those that are not and juxtapose images from different contexts. Literal boundaries, such as walls fences, expanses of water and highway median strips are also used. My intent is to invite viewers to look beyond these boundaries to see the possibilities of a connected whole.

Sombras des Caldes (The Shadows of Caldes) - Architectural Imagery and a Dog
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
Carol Pylant's paintings are often devoid of humans. There is a more important role for the standing dog in "Sombras de Caldes" [Shadows of Caldes]. This is a warren hound, perhaps of the Podenco Andaluz breed, and he looks over its shoulder toward us, a companion waiting for us to join him. Maybe though, this dog is beseeching us to acts of rescue, since fires blaze in the background. Flames and smoke fill the sky beyond the bars of the metal balcony...

Girona Blue Door - Three Architectural Stone Doorways, Lush Tropical Landscape
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
Three portals, each with its own distinct details, are meticulously rendered yet upon further scrutiny, reality becomes distorted. The landscape, while lush and inviting, is seemingly impossible, yet it draws us in and leads us to wonder what lies beyond the other doors. This watercolor is matted with a heavy white mat and framed in a washed grey wooden frame measuring 17.25 x 14.875 inches.

Ascencio - Ancient Architectural Arched Doorways Leading to Verdant Landscape
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
An ancient stone doorway is cut into a ochre colored wall revealing gentle staircase leading to a verdant landscape that is just out of view. The rough surface on the walls of this small painting is reminiscent of the stucco so very common throughout Spain where the artist lived for a time. The piece is matted and framed with an white washed oak frame measuring 16 x 17.875 inches.

Redempcio - Ancient Architectural Arched Doorways Leading to Misty Landscape
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
Meticulously rendered stone archways lead to a stone path meandering into a lush landscape in Carol Pylant's stunning architectural painting entitled "Redempcio". The pristine space suggest inner solitude and peace. This calm continues through the archway and into the lush, misty landscape beyond the walls. The artist often combines imagery from her travels to Italy, Spain and throughout Europe with memories of elsewhere. The artwork is framed in a simple black wooden frame measuring 9.5 x 9.5 inches framed.

Echo, Lush Tropical Scene with Pond and Peacock, Original Oil on Linen, Framed
By Carol Pylant
Located in Chicago, IL
The lush green landscape and strolling white peacock invites us to explore. This tranquil scene is that of Mexico yet upon closer look, the artist has offered another landscape - that of North Carolina where the water cascading over the rocks was embedded on her imagination. Combining the two into a new reality for us to explore is the mastery of Carol Pylant's work . The meticulously rendered detail gives the painting a photo realist quality. This painting is framed in a simple black frame measuring h 21.5h x 31.5w inches.
