American Patricia Crotty’s colorful gestural paintings are inspired by nature and the hidden forces that lie beneath everyday experience. Her work reflects the tension between chaos and order, fluidity and form, reflecting the natural world’s unpredictability and underlying design. Inspired by the impressionist sensitivity of Monet and Matisse, as well as the gestural dynamism of Abstract Expressionists Willem de Kooning and Joan Mitchell, her works merge observational starting points with intuitive abstraction. Her process begins with sketches drawn from life, capturing fleeting impressions that she later develops in the studio through an intuitive process of layering and revision. Crotty earned MFA and DEA in painting and multimedia art from the Sorbonne in Paris. Her work has been shown in solo and group shows in New England, New York, Amsterdam, and Paris. She lives in the Boston area.

Nature morte en rouge et noir (Still-life in Red and Black), 1953
By Claude Venard
Located in Mc Lean, VA
Claude Vénard was born in Paris in 1913 to an established, middle-class family from Bourgogne. Although he was a businessman, his father accepted and supported his devotion to the arts.
