About the Item

“Two Souls” is a 40 x 40 x 1.5 inch oil painting on canvas by Anita Loomis. A work from her “Couples” series, this vibrantly colored abstract composition offers an interior scene of two embracing figures in their home. It speaks to connections and unspoken bonds that friends, companions, and loved ones share in life. With a painting style that hints at Loomis’s stained-glass past and her appreciation of European expressionist painting and cartoon animation, her active painting surface is laden with symbols from her growing lexicon. Anita’s distinctive painting style is evident here: lavish color, expressive black lines, and heavy impasto texture. This painting is signed on the back and on the left gallery edge. Anita Loomis is a painter who works from her studio in Kittery, Maine. Communication is the underpinning focus of her oeuvre. For the “Tomorrowland” series, each painting offers semi-abstract settings with unusual plant and animal life thriving in spaces with simple architectural forms and structures. Through this series of paintings, the artist asks what possible new species will evolve as the Earth changes. Anita Loomis creates paintings that explore facets of human dialogue and relationships. Through painting, humor, and a deep curiosity about human imperfection, she investigates what it means to navigate communication with people who see the world through different cultural lenses. Loomis paints to shine a light on the common threads that connect our human experiences and spotlight the value of empathy. Loomis earned her BA in Studio Art from Framingham State University in Massachusetts, and her MA with a concentration in Arts Management from the University of Central Florida. She worked in the field of architectural stained glass for fifteen years and has focused on painting since 2004. She lives and works in Kittery, Maine. Her work has been exhibited at Miller White Gallery, South Dennis, MA; Fountain Street Gallery, Boston, MA, and various exhibitions in New England, Pennsylvania, China, and Japan. Her work is collected privately. Loomis is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.
