Smith Blanchard Art

Haitian, b. 1952

Smith Blanchard was born on August 19, 1952, in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Blanchard was the son of the late Haitian artist Sisson Blanchard who worked as a yard-boy at Le Centre d'Art in Port-au-Prince. His father encouraged him to paint and helped him develop his unique style, which was very different from his father’s. Like his father, Blanchard’s paintings are rare and very hard to come by. Blanchard is renowned for his nuanced portraits of Vodou Loa and his lush landscapes. He moved to the US in the 1980s. Blanchard has exhibited in France and the US.

Parting (pet dog, bulldog, cowboy, animal portrait art, surrealist oil painting)
By Rudolf Kosow
Located in Quebec, Quebec
"Parting," a surrealistic painting by Rudolf Kosow, masterfully employs scale to create a poignant narrative of farewell. The canvas is dominated by the face of a bulldog, each hair and whisker intricately detailed, exuding a warmth and expressiveness that captures the essence of the breed. The bulldog's large, soulful eye, reflecting a quiet resignation, suggests an awareness of an impending separation. Perched thoughtfully on the dog's snout, a diminutive figure of a man wearing a cowboy hat sits, his posture one of contemplative sorrow. The man dangles his legs over the edge of the snout, a symbol of the precipice between companionship and the solitude of parting. Kosow's work deeply explores the themes of connection and departure. The intimate positioning of the man against the vastness of the dog's facial landscape evokes the shared history and emotional bond between human and animal. The painting's title, "Parting," may imply an imminent physical separation, yet the closeness of the two subjects suggests an unbreakable emotional tie that distance cannot sever. In this piece, Kosow invites the viewer to consider the bittersweet moments of goodbye that are an intrinsic part of life's journey, highlighting the enduring nature of love that remains through any farewell. "Parting" is a testament to the poignant beauty found in the strength of connections that transcend the constraints of size and species. keywords; painting on canvas, surrealist painting, animal vs human, americana, nature, man, man vs nature, surrealism, giant animal...

Cuddly Snout (dog, snout, nose, lady, vintage, animal, surrealist oil painting)
By Rudolf Kosow
Located in Quebec, Quebec
"Cuddly Snout" by Rudolf Kosow is a stirring piece that captures the tender relationship between a human and an animal, portrayed through the striking close-up of a pet dog's snout, with a person resting peacefully against it. The animal's facial features are rendered with exquisite attention to texture and detail, each whisker and patch of fur beautifully accentuated. The small figure of the person, leaning with an air of contented ease against the snout, is a testament to the comfort and solace that animals provide. This closeness conveys a shared moment of rest, an unspoken bond of trust and affection that needs no words. The artwork’s title, "Cuddly Snout," encapsulates the warmth and gentle nature of this interaction, highlighting the simple, pure connections that form between the hearts of humans and animals. Kosow’s work invites us to reflect on the soft, quiet moments that we cherish with our pets, those times of closeness that bring us joy and comfort. It’s a visual homage to the silent, heartfelt communication that deepens our bonds with the animal companions who grace our lives. This painting is a tender reminder of the unconditional love and comfort that our furry friends bestow upon us, often becoming a serene haven in our lives. keywords; painting on canvas, surrealist painting, animal vs human, americana, nature, man, man vs nature, surrealism, giant animal...
