Rizaldy Celi Jr.’s "The Nightmare" reimagines Henri Fuseli’s iconic 18th-century masterpiece through a haunting contemporary lens. This figurative oil painting immerses the viewer in an atmosphere of psychological tension, where dream and terror intertwine. Celi Jr. uses dramatic chiaroscuro, rich textures, and surreal composition to amplify the unsettling presence of the figures, blending classical inspiration with modern expressiveness. Both homage and reinvention, this artwork offers collectors a striking and provocative interpretation of a timeless subject in art history. About the Artist: Rizaldy Celi Jr. is a transformative figure in contemporary art whose journey through personal redemption has shaped his vibrant and emotive large-scale mixed-media works. His pieces, often beginning as intimate self-explorations, have struck a chord with audiences, allowing them to resonate with his candid explorations of love and despair. Rizaldy characterizes his work as a skillful blend of Baroque aesthetics and contemporary sensibilities, drawing profound inspiration from the timeless techniques of Old Masters like Caravaggio, Rembrandt, and Rubens. His paintings often find a place in the intimate setting of home décor, reflecting his preference for personal connection over commercial visibility. Rizaldy's professional and creative evolution is a testament to his belief in hope and the transformative power of accepting responsibility for one’s happiness and creative expression.

"The Kiss" 2023, dark figurative oil painting by Daniela Astone

By Daniela Astone

Located in Sag Harbor, NY

Part of Daniela Astone's series of figures in different ethereal and surrealistic spaces. "The Kiss" brings to mind Gustav Klimt's famous 1908 painting of the same name but instead of an abstracted gold background, Astone creates a mysterious creature enveloping and suspending the figure in mid-air. The dark monster looks ominous until you notice the nude figure leaning into her partner, her hands lightly caressing or leaning on the the amorphous creature. Her body is relaxed and her eyes closed. As a classical artist who paints the nude figure everyday, Astone is masterful at depicting women at ease in their natural bodies rather than women self-conscious of their nudity—posing but fearful of exploitation at the same time—a theme in art history that continues today. Some of the sweeping strokes of black are inspired by Japanese paintings techniques, and on the lighter areas there are rain drop falling from a blue-grey cloud in the background. 52.8 x 44.9 inches framed Artist Bio Daniela Astone was born in Pisa, Italy, in 1980 and raised in Porto Santo Stefano...
