Working on some tropical beauties for an exhibition. I was invited to show my work for a month in the Lakewood Ranch FL Library. Original paintings with a Florida vibe. 🙂

"Jungle with Setting Sun," Henri Rousseau, c. 1910.
Rousseau (1844-1910) was a former tax collector who took up art in his 40s. Completely self-taught, he faced ridicule and dismissal in his lifetime, but now he is highly regarded as a precursor to modernism and an influence on later avant-garde art.
He loved painting jungle scenes, but they weren't real jungles; he never saw one himself. His ideas of jungles were based on popular literature and visits to botanical gardens in France. His animals often had humanlike faces and sometimes seemed to be undertaking human activities.
Here, for instance, the jungle plants look like houseplants magnified to enormous size; the flowers look like dandelions and clover blossoms, but giant ones. They tower over the man and tiger in the bottom center. It's impossible to tell if he was trying to be realistic but just lacked any reference to the real thing, or creating a sort of approximation using what references he had, and creating a personal fantasy.
It's easy to laugh at Rousseau's work; sometimes it doesn't make a lot of sense. But there's a joy and enthusiasm about it that appeal.
Happy Flower Friday!

"Paulownias and Chrysanthemums," Sakai Hōitsu, early 1800s.
Sakai Hōitsu (1761-1829) was a practitioner of the Rinpa school of painting; basically images with gold backgrounds, with classical subject matter that catered to the tastes of the wealthy. He wasn't an original Rinpa, which was invented in the 1600s, but he revived it in the 19th century.
Sakai was a popular painter and teacher in his adulthood, but poor health drove him to be a Buddhist priest and live the last 21 years of his life in seclusion. During that time, though, he studied the works of other artists and released a collection of his own work in book form, from this this is taken.
The line down the middle is because this is a two-part screen, for well-off patrons in small city quarters. The contrast of paulownia, a summer flower, with chrysanthemum, an autumn flower, indicates the changing seasons, but in Japanese art paulownia is a symbol for resilience and chrysanthemums for virtuous governance, so it's vaguely political as well.
Happy Flower Friday!
