Henriette Gorbitz
"My Home", Cozy Pumpkin House in the Garden Naive/Primitivist Acrylic Painting

2005

About the Item

This artwork entitled "My Home" by Henriette Gorbitz is a beautiful acrylic painting on canvas, stretched over a wooden frame, measuring 50cm x 100cm x 2.5cm. The painting is full of rich colors, mainly featuring blue for the sky, golden yellow for the pumpkin house, green for the plants, and a mix of yellow, purple, and blue for the flowers. The centerpiece of the painting is the pumpkin house located in a field of flowers, with the pumpkin stem acting as the chimney, billowing out smoke to suggest that someone is living inside. Looking through the pumpkin door, the interior space is portrayed as simple and cozy, with a roaring fireplace, a double bed adorned with heart-shaped pillows, and a bookshelf filled with easily accessible books, all rendered in meticulous detail. As the artist hails from a family of craftsmen, it's no surprise that the painting beautifully captures the essence of a warm and inviting home. The theme of the painting is to express the artist's definition of home, a simple and comfortable place built together with loved ones, away from the chaos of the world. The vibrant colors and clever composition, along with the exquisite depiction of objects and space, reflect the artist's love for life and remind the viewer of the allure of a peaceful and simple life away from the bustle of modern city living. Henriette Gorbitz is a naïve/primitive French artist, passionate about Jean Giono. She wishes to transmit the beauty of the nature, but also its fragile yet immutable sides.

  • "Blue Sky in Leaves", Surrealist Landscape Naive Primitive Acrylic Painting
    By Henriette Gorbitz
    Located in Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
    This artwork depicts a small pond in a summer or spring mountain landscape in the background. The artist applied different tints in rectangular areas starting from the center. It may suggest different seasons, but it's not, since the vegetation doesn't change. The sunset sky is unaffected by these differences of tint. Two of these areas are filled with mosaic patterns, one light blue and the other yellow. The surrounding area is made as a carpet of leaves with strong veins. On top of these leaves are leaf-shaped patches of sky. Four large leaves also cover the landscape. This artwork is not framed. Henriette Gorbitz...

  • "Birch Woods", Surrealist Naive Primitive Night Landscape Acrylic Painting
    By Henriette Gorbitz
    Located in Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
    This artwork actually contains two landscapes. The inner landscape depicts a forest of birch trees at dawn or at dusk, with a purple sky and a fuzzy Sun. The ground is full of colored small flowers and plants. The outer landscape depicts a night green landscape through birch branches, with clouds and the Moon. Although both landscape can't actually merge, some branches of the inner landscape extends into those of the outer landscape, which makes this painting surrealist. Both landscapes are separated by a pink mosaic...

    By Henriette Gorbitz
