David Brayne

There is something so ethereal about Brayne’s work. Like his work is about ghosts. Memories. Events that have passed by. Quietly.

higher education

A lot of education is propaganda, that is a culture/society’s need to pat itself on the back.

 

henri rousseau

The first time I saw Henri Rousseau’s work, I never recovered. It is a joy to visually walk through his work.

Marilene Sawaf

In her figure paintings she is influenced by the vibrant colors and stained glass effects of Medieval art, the stylized designs of Oriental carpets and the intricate patterns of Indian and Iranian manuscripts and tapestries.
In her landscapes she tries to capture the richness of colors of the New England landscape.

I was trying to imagine these paintings in a room painted white. They must be quite brilliant. The patterns and colours. They reflect a period of time, that perhaps never existed, a kind of nostalgia for a paradise in our mythic past. Moments of silence and prayer, I would think.
