About the Item

Artist Comments
This painting captures a glowing moon suspended above a restless sea. Soft light spills across the waves, reflecting warm tones of red and orange against the deep, shifting blue. The sky carries a quiet energy, its swirling forms suggesting both mystery and creation. At the center, a luminous core draws the eye inward, as if revealing the calm that lives within movement.


About the Artist
Artist Lisa Crosby creates layered abstract landscapes through a meticulous and experimental process. She glazes, stamps, paints, draws, sands, and layers to explore colors, shapes, and textures inspired by her memories and surroundings. "I am fascinated by the subtleties of the environment and the interplay between structure and chaos, intuition and preparation, landscape and memory," says Lisa. Her paintings often reflect events from daily life, the intricacies of relationships, and personal experiences, blending concept with emotion. Lisa works from her home studio, surrounded by the tools and materials that enable her exploratory approach. Through her art, she seeks to communicate and connect with viewers, offering immersive experiences within each composition. Outside the studio, she continues to engage with her community and environment, finding inspiration in everyday life.

The Smallest Event Unfolds Like a Fate, surrealist landscape oil painting
By Eileen Murphy
Located in New York, NY
Eileen Murphy’s paintings on panels are a mirage of disparate memories. Lived experience, borrowed art historical footnotes, and imagery drawn from literary references swirl together and coalesce into shimmering sylvan scenes. Allusions to Patinir, Jacob von Ruisdael, Frederick Church, lines pulled from Rilke, and Murphy’s own personal history emerge deftly from the same brushstroke. The result is images that are simultaneously foreign and familiar, deeply intimate yet shared in a common vernacular. Murphy builds these compositions from layers of carefully applied oil paint, her brushstrokes growing increasingly specific and nuanced with each new stratum. Because she works on panel, the pigment is not absorbed into the material, but rather, sits atop the surface, the color remaining fully saturated. Without this anchoring effect, Murphy’s landscapes become lofty and voluminous, further intensifying their surrealist quality. Eileen Murphy has spent her life along the Hudson River and has lived in Brooklyn, NY for the last seventeen years. Her current paintings are based on the landscape of Columbia County...
