Corn Field 2, gray photorealist graphite still life drawing, 2019

About the Item

Mary Reilly explores the full tonal depth of graphite in her nature drawings and landscapes. She finds all of the soft subtleties of gray as she shifts seamlessly from branch to pebble to pebble, shadow to highlight, foreground to background. Reilly uses a reductive technique, erasing away at her shading and lines to achieve this gradated effect. New York native Mary Reilly studied art at SUNY Purchase, the School of Visual Arts, the Art Students League of New York, and the National Academy School of Fine Arts. After a career as a graphic designer, she began pursuing her career as an artist full time and studied with artists Frederick Brosen and Sharon Sprung. She currently lives and works in Manhattan. framed: 16 x 20.25 in.

  • David Morrison, Wind-Up Bird No. 6, hyperrealist color pencil animal drawing
    By David Morrison
    Located in New York, NY
    David Morrison has extended his brand of hyperrealism to the artificial, capturing the intricate lithography that decorates his collection of vintage Kohler wind-up birds. His drawings are often mistaken for a photograph from afar - on approach, they dissolve into a mesmerizing display of mark-making.This new body of work plays with the boundaries between organic and manufactured: the metal imposters are resplendent as they perch, pert and expectant, on wilting greenery. Yet another layer of irony, the toy birds...
