watercolour 13.5 x 22.5 cm

Hilma af Klint was a Swedish painter and pioneer of abstract art. She was born in 1862 and began her career as a painter in the 1880s, working in a representational style. However, she became interested in spiritualism and theosophy, and began to explore more abstract forms of expression in her work. 

Af Klint was a member of the "Five," a group of artists who worked together and were interested in exploring the spiritual dimensions of art. She produced a large body of abstract paintings and drawings, many of which were not shown to the public during her lifetime. Af Klint believed that her abstract work had a spiritual purpose and was intended to be seen only by a select few. It was not until the 1980s that her work began to receive wider recognition, and today she is considered a pioneering figure in the history of abstract art.

they have the staticity of Etruscan figures, something eternal

"Le consolatrici" (The Consolers) is a painting by the Italian artist Massimo Campigli, who was active in the first half of the 20th century. The painting depicts a group of women seated around a table, with their heads bent and their hands folded in their laps. The women are dressed in long, flowing garments and seem to be engaged in a serious or solemn conversation. The overall mood of the painting is one of contemplation and introspection, as if the women are seeking comfort or solace from one another.

Campigli was a member of the Novecento Italiano movement, which sought to create a new, modern style of painting that was rooted in the traditions of the Italian Renaissance. He was known for his use of bright, bold colors and his interest in the human figure, and these qualities are evident in "Le consolatrici." The painting is an excellent example of Campigli's ability to capture the psychological states of his subjects through the use of color, composition, and gesture.

Jan Waldron, Oranges in the Window

 
Oranges in the Window, 2021
Oil on canvas

Oil, acrylics, mixed media, watercolors, ink, graphite, photography — why limit the possibilities. I am always looking — at light and shadows, at the subtlety of colors. Often a painting arises from a combination of collected perceptions and a deep emotional response to them — a sense of home, young summers, or imagined retreats.
