Charles Movalli Art
American, 1945-2016
Charles Movalli (1945–2016) had a BA from Clark University and a PhD from the University of Connecticut. He painted and wrote about art for over thirty years. He belonged to the North Shore Arts Association, the Rockport Art Association, The Guild of Boston Artists, Academic Artists, Hudson Valley Art Association, and the New England Watercolor Society.
Although he worked primarily in acrylic, he was also a Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America. He received Life Achievement Awards from the Oil Painters of America (1991), Rockport Art Association (1999), and Hudson Valley Art Association (2002).
Movalli judged shows all over the United States and lectured and demonstrated for over a hundred different art organizations. He also conducted painting workshops in 24 states, Bermuda, Mexico, Canada, England, France, and Switzerland. Movalli is also listed in Who's Who in American Art.
"Artist, author, teacher and jurist, Charles Movalli relished his reputation as an avant-garde painter and a man of letters. Others viewed him as a bridge between traditionalism and the modernists, not only on Cape Ann and the North Shore, but across the country, and as far afield as Europe. Charles Movalli touched the lives of everyone who knew him; through his art, his vision, his writing, and his teaching . . ."
– Judith Curtisto

Moonlight Bay Atmospheric Abstract Seascape Painting by Leading Contemporary British Artist, Angela Wakefield
Art measures 31.5 x 31.5 inches
Frame measure 37 x 37 inches
This painting is an exquisite example of abstract expressionism, capturing the viewer's imagination with its evocative use of colour and form. The artist skillfully blends deep, moody blacks and grays with vibrant splashes of pink, orange, and yellow, creating a dynamic contrast that suggests a dramatic sunset or a tempestuous sky. The interplay of light and dark tones brings a sense of depth and movement to the piece, inviting the viewer to interpret the scene through their own lens.
The broad, expressive brushstrokes and layers of colour give the painting a textured, almost tactile quality, adding to its visual intrigue. This complexity in texture and color makes it a compelling focal point for any room, drawing the eye and sparking conversation.
The artwork is beautifully framed in an elegant, slightly distressed gold frame that complements the richness of the painting, adding a touch of sophistication and timelessness. This combination of contemporary abstract style with a classic frame makes it versatile for various interior settings, from modern minimalist to more traditional decors.
Ideal for collectors who appreciate the emotional and interpretative power of abstract art, this painting offers a unique blend of intensity and tranquility. It not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of a space but also provides a window into the artist's creative vision, making it a truly captivating piece for any art enthusiast.
Angela Wakefield has twice been on the front cover of ‘Art of England’ and featured in ARTnews, attracting international attention and critical acclaim with her urban landscape paintings of New York, London & the North of England. The style of painting has been described as ‘contemporary realism’, and is often favourably compared with Edward Hopper by collectors and art critics. Angela’s work is held in private collections in Europe and the USA, including the British Royal Family. Her admirers include leading figures in international business, filmmaking and the media.
