Kenny harris Art
Kenny Harris has traveled around the world, painting on location. He is fascinated with subtle light effects and expressive painterly surfaces, focusing on interiors or cityscapes. His dynamic paint application describes the way the light pours through space, with scrapes and impasto embodying the texture of the surfaces depicted. The paint itself becomes plaster and wood or a glint of light reflecting off a dull surface worn smooth with age. The locations chosen for these paintings span the globe from Ireland, Lisbon to Italy, London, Paris, Havana and Istanbul. Harris has been traveling and painting for many years and this body of work reflects the many disparate spaces that capture his eye for light and texture. His wife, fellow painter Judy Nimtz, appears in many of the small paintings, in the act of painting at her easel or in other quiet moments. For his large compositions, Harris chose to focus on Havana, Cuba as his subject. The colorful emptiness of its arcades and interiors evoke a stillness charged with meaning. The Cuban people are waiting in anticipation for what is to come and these empty spaces are emblematic of this suspense. Harris’s paintings are at once both modern and nostalgic. Harris is represented by George Billis Gallery in New York City.

A Young Woman With Her Dog by Victor Ravet
Located in Stockholm, SE
In this exquisite painting by Victor Ravet, we are transported to an elegant interior setting reminiscent of the grandeur of high-class homes. The focal point is a woman adorned in a shimmering pink gown, radiating grace and sophistication. Bathed in gentle light, her dress catches the glimmer, accentuating her beauty.
She holds a treat for a dog in her hand, enticing the furry companion who stands on its hind legs in eager anticipation. The canine's eyes fixated on the delicious morsel, capturing a moment of playful interaction between the woman and her loyal companion.
The scene takes on a narrative quality as the young woman's other hand delicately lifts a curtain, hinting at another room beyond. This subtle gesture adds depth to the composition, suggesting a world of hidden secrets and intriguing possibilities within the opulent surroundings.
Victor Ravet took inspiration from the Dutch Golden Age painters of the 17th century, such as Vermeer, Jacob Ochtervelt, and Gerrit Dou. This homage to their style and subject matter pays tribute to the timeless allure of domestic scenes, capturing a slice of life in a bygone era.
With meticulous attention to detail, Ravet masterfully recreates the textures and fabrics, immersing the viewer in the sumptuousness of the period. The soft play...
