Sharon Feder Art
American
Feder’s paintings depict the almost forgotten corners of our fast-changing urban areas, focusing on alleyways and industrial buildings off the beaten path. The paintings are vibrant with textured surfaces created through skilled manipulation of the paint - they are technically full of value and tradition. Within each composition lies a tension between realism and abstraction; representation and the geometric.
Feder draws inspiration from neighborhoods in Los Angeles and Denver areas. However, the location almost becomes irrelevant as she teases out the universal in the byways of the industrial edges of our sprawling cities. These paintings could be anywhere.
Her paintings are uncluttered by urban debris - the buildings are perhaps abandoned but not rundown. The linearity of these forms becomes the structure for her study of color, light, shadow, and reflection. These buildings and power lines have become the man-made landscape taking the place of hills and trees. In essence, Feder is a modern landscape painter - her landscape is the mountain range of urban industrial sprawl.
Feder writes, “focusing on urban imagery and on the universality of human vision, these paintings speak to the angst of our post-industrial world; as the forms we construct and the terrain we inhabit mirror our notions of self, these images are thereby explorations of our solitude, our history, and our interconnection. In subject matter and through rhythmic compositions of form and color, the paintings document and celebrate the choreography of our existence.”
Sharon Feder completed BFA coursework at the University of Washington, Seattle and received her BA in Fine Art from Regis University, Denver. Feder has exhibited extensively in the metropolitan Denver area and has shown with George Billis Gallery Los Angeles and New York. In 2014 Feder exhibited a large body of work at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art. She has painted over 60 murals and painting installations in commercial and residential venues, both interior and exterior in Aspen, Denver, Telluride and Palm Beach. She currently lives and works in Denver, CO.to

Landscape with Two Bathers
By Guillaume Dulac
Located in London, GB
'Landscape with Two Bathers', oil on panel, by Guillaume Dulac (circa 1920s). Dulac's oils and drawings manifest an elegant classicism with an immediately identifiable style. It is these qualities which are so attractive both aesthetically and in the context as an investment in fine art. Our gallery holds virtually the entire remaining collection of Guillaume Dulac's sketches and memorabilia with impeccable provenance. In this acquisition of a Dulac oil painting, one finds a depiction of two women, one of them in the nude, seated on the edge of a bathing pool. The other is peacefully seated on a comfortable boulder stone...

"Tbilisi Nocturne" - contemporary realist urban plein air painting, cityscape
By Rachel Personett
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
Painted from life, the artist standing on a street corner looking across to three buildings lit by ambient street lights. Rising up behind the city is a dark mass, a hill silhouetted against the comparatively brighter blue night sky.
Signed "Personett" lower right corner.
Framed in a traditional black frame w gold trim.
Framed dimensions: 17 x 15 inches
Rachel Personett was born in Hawaii, but raised in Colorado. Being the daughter of a pilot she has always traveled extensively. She has studied part time at the Savannah College of Art and Design, The Angel Academy of Art, and finally settled on the Florence Academy of Art, graduating in 2015. In January 2016 she apprenticed the painter Odd Nerdrum in Norway for eight months. Rachel Personett works strictly from life, and enjoys the challenged of painting the ephemeral. Working from life provides the opportunity to travel around the world painting the ever changing people and landscapes.
Artist Statement
My mother had studied advertising in college, so she knew a lot about arts and good craftsmanship. She did talks at my elementary school each week and on a different artist. I remember being very moved by the images of Van Gogh and Andrew Wyeth. At the Florence Academy I really liked Sargent, Sorolla, Willard Metcalf, Henri Fantin-Latour and Velazquez. At Odd Nerdrums I gained new respect for Rembrandt and was introduced to other Scandinavian painters...
