Ruth LaGue
Field of Flowers, Original Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Ruth LaGue paints a pastoral landscape with a white barn partially concealed by trees. Inspired by the shapes and patterns of a field of flowers, Ruth draws the viewer's attention to the piece's contrasting hues. She captures the rhythm of sunlight, forms, and shadows cast by the warm rays of light. Her intuitive usage of solid and vibrant colors captures the warmth and serenity of the countryside.


About the Artist
In her abstracted landscape paintings, Ruth LaGue pares composition down to its barest form. Through simple color, line and form, landscapes are invoked, rather than detailed. Ruth adjusts the placement of the horizon line in her paintings to suggest a range of natural formations. She stretches form, line and color to their limits, providing the least amount of visual information needed to understand the landscape. Her color palette is nuanced and each color is distinctly her own. She is deeply influenced by her childhood in Alaska and her travels to India. While in India, she found an indelible connection between the vast, wild landscape of her childhood and the limitless internal landscape of the soul. Ruth’s beautifully simplified landscapes become metaphors for the spiritual or otherworldly realms inherent in both nature and in the self.

  • Let Me Wrap My Dream - Contemporary Mixed Media Red + Green + Black + Grey
    By Binay Sinha
    Located in Gilroy, CA
    "Let Me Wrap My Dream" is a contemporary artwork by Indian artist Binay Sinha. The imagery is a composition of many different textures, both artificial and natural. The bright red cloth is surrounded by shrubbery and an unknown manufactured texture. His surrealistic style captures the balance of flora & fauna, humanity, and city elements. Sinha's longing for the natural environment incorporates plants and natural textures into his works. This piece has a muted background with the central imagery vivid and colorful, commanding attention and consideration. From the artist: "Migration for employment from rural to urban areas has emerged. The history of migration is probably as long as human existence itself. Although the nature of migration has changed over time, factors that influence immigrants’ mental well-being largely remain the same. Migration for employment from rural to urban areas has emerged mainly due to agrarian stress in almost every part of India. This has raised many questions for me about what constitutes home and family. Is home a gunny sack...
