Darius Yektai Landscape Paintings
American, b. 1973
Darius Yektai was born in Southampton, New York, in 1973. He lives and works out of his home and studio in Sag Harbor. Darius grew up in a cultural home of art and artists, with his Greek-American mother and his father, Manoucher Yektai, an Iranian who emigrated to the United States after the Second World War. Manoucher was a prominent Hamptons Abstract Expressionist painter. Darius has picked up some traits from his father but pushes even further into what is now completely his own.
Darius’s most recent body of work is bright and colorful, with oil and acrylic paints laid on thickly. He's creating sculptural paintings that can't be read from left to right — they need to be examined from surface to base, from section to section, and then, overall, as an encompassing whole.

Ghost Orchid
By Darius Yektai
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
A classic Yektai subject of melding flower still life with a landscape background. Land and sea become one as the orchid's form and colors blend into the waves of the seascape. The leaves of the plant start to become the waves crashing onto the shore and the sun could be mistaken for a blossom.

Off the Wall
By Darius Yektai
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
The dark green and blues of a dramatic wave are signifiers of an Atlantic Ocean scene. A surfer, seemingly one with the wave, rides in the barrel. Stripes of color track the movement and trajectory of the surfer.

Kamiland
By Darius Yektai
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
Yektai captures the transient shapes and textures of the Atlantic's waves that, as a surfer, Yektai is particularly attuned to. The circular canvas is a reminder of the cyclical nature of the ocean, and also resembles a porthole window.

"Green Lilies, Magenta Barn" 2022 oil and resin painting, abstract landscape
By Darius Yektai
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
In this affecting composition, Yektai combines the dynamism of the abstract expressionist style with the soft, meditative qualities of Monet's waterlilies.
Yektai first paints the canvas with loose strokes of rich deep greens. A pinkish red abstract form takes center stage - ang highlights of yellow flank the edges. Then he pours a clear-grade liquid resin onto the painted canvas and lets it harden into a glassy surface. Finally, he uses linear brushstrokes connecting colors into forms, in the typical impressionist style. Yektai varies the volume in which he applies paint, from thin and dry to sopping wet and thick. This process allows for a more three-dimensional experience of the painting. One can see through layers which build-up to create the flurry of brushstrokes. The reflective surface makes space for the viewer to see themselves in the painting, looking back at them. A contemporary notion.
Framed dimensions: 29 x 23 inches

Salt Chuck

An abstract oil painting, loosely painted en plein air on a beach in the Hamptons. The painting captures a curling wave, just about to crash on the shore, the spray from the top of the wave watching in the wind off the ocean. The painting was done like a sketch done by impressionist artists back in the day, but on a much larger scale. Color notes jotted down urgently to capture the moment before it disperses like sea spray in the breeze. Yektai paints in a thick sculptural fashion...

Abstract oil painting on canvas and resin. This moody piece has a lot of depth, literally! The layers of paint and resin are built upon each other, the upper layers casting shadows below. The glossy resin over the darker surface also creates a reflective surface. Just off of center is a brighter patch of cerulean emerging from the shades of black and dark grey. This piece can be hung horizontally or vertically. When hung vertically, the word "FUCK" can be read more easily at the bottom of the composition, when horizontal, the lines of the letters hide amongst the stems of the black roses...

"Daniels Lane" contemporary oil on resin painting colorful modern farm landscape
By Darius Yektai
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
An oil painting of a landscape in Sagaponack NY. Lines radiate across the canvas towards the bottom and right side of the canvas in shades of yellow, brown and orange, indicating rows of plants or tilled soil in a field. The field is surrounded by lush thick brush-stokes in shades of green flecked there and there with bright orange. The top fourth of the painting shows the sky, full of points of paint, most under the resin. The white dots above the resin cast shadows below, adding dimension to the piece. The two radiating lines that surround the lower righthand corner are also painted above the resin, one white and one a swirl of primary colors loosely mixed together. The raw white gessoed linen canvas is clearly visible between the precisely placed brush-strokes, all sealed under resin...
