Mary Dwyer, Ida Tarbell, 2017, watercolor on paper, Suffragists and Journalists
By Mary Dwyer
Located in Darien, CT
The inspiration for Mary Dwyer's work revolves around storytelling, historic events, a love of political cartoons and early portraiture paintings. An integral part of this work is research. Spurred by an innate curiosity, she creates political, historical and personal paintings. In the last few years Dwyer has been researching and painting the American Suffrage movement. In this research she discovered that the people working as both Suffragists and Abolitionists also started their own newspapers and published their own pamphlets. They became journalists, as no one was covering their story.
Dwyer's paintings are a celebration of both the voter’s rights activist and the visual pageantry of the Suffrage movement. The use of color in her Suffrage paintings speak to the vibrant pageantry and the visual marketing used during the movement. Sashes, button, banners, flags and ribbons were made by women and marketed for women.
The significance of free press is paramount in a free and fair society. The importance of journalist has become a theme that has continued in her present work.
Recently she has been working on a Memorial Paintings...

Mary Dwyer, Nast vs. Boss Tweed, 1870s, 2013, Acrylic Paint, Wood Panel
By Mary Dwyer
Located in Darien, CT
Fascinated by American history, Mary Dwyer blends the American Folk Art tradition with an abstract modernist aesthetic. The inspiration of her work revolves around historic lore and love of early portraiture paintings. Drawn from extensive research sometimes found to be inexact and often contradictory, Mary’s work becomes her own personal interpretation of history. She creates series of paintings, which portray political, historic and personal details that shaped an historic figures life.
Thomas Nast
During the 19th century, the American newspaper had as much powerful influence as ‘social media’ has today. Many Americans at that time were not literate and received political and social information from the newspaper cartoon. This gave a cartoonist power. Political cartoonist, Thomas Nast used this power to bring down corruption in New York City. His main targets were William “BOSS” Tweed and his politically corrupt Tammany Hall. Nast frequently sharpened his pen to lampoon the newly arrived Irish catholic...

Promenade by Grégoire Mathias – Geometric Cubist Composition in Earth Tones
Located in PÉRIGUEUX, FR
Promenade
Acrylic on wood
33.1 x 21.8 cm
A compact yet striking cubist composition by French artist Grégoire Mathias, “Promenade” explores human figures through layered geometries and rich earth tones.
“Promenade” is a refined, vertically oriented work in acrylic on wood panel by French artist Greg Mathias, a pioneer of Diachronic Cubism—an evolution of Cubism that doesn’t just fragment space, but also folds multiple moments in time into a single frame. In this composition, a solitary figure appears mid-step, portrayed through overlapping forms that subtly shift in posture and position, evoking successive instants of the same walk.
Using a palette of earthy ochres, rose-beige tones, slate blues, and deep browns, Mathias blends geometric abstraction with temporal movement. The fractured background enhances the impression of both forward motion and layered time, suggesting the silent passage of moments within a single contemplative scene.
Unlike traditional Analytical Cubism, which reduces forms to a still, spatial analysis, this piece embodies motion and transformation—hallmarks of the artist’s unique visual language. Compact in size but conceptually expansive, “Promenade” invites the viewer to witness the echo of steps already taken and those just about to occur.
