Elizabeth McGhee Paintings

American, b. 1988
Elizabeth McGhee (b. 1985, Southern California) completed her BFA in 2009 at the Laguna College of Art and Design, Laguna Beach, CA. She continued her studies at the Lance Richlin Atelier in Torrance, CA. McGhee draws from pop culture, literary references, and puns when composing her classically styled still life paintings. She says, "I often turn to humor to address serious or controversial subjects in my artwork. With my still life paintings of toys, I am examining how symbols are interpreted by individuals and through the lens of cultural dogma. My intention is not to promote a particular concept or ideal, but to inspire analysis and contemplation in my viewers." McGhee has participated in exhibitions at museums and universities across the country, and her work is both nationally and internationally collected.

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.
