Stephen Scott Young
Miss Ruby's Flowers

2005/2010

About the Item

Image dimensions: 17 x 22 inches Framed dimensions: 27 x 32 inches The artistʼs inscription on the verso side of this work reads: What amazed me about being on Daufuskie at Miss Rubyʼs farm was the feeling of organized clutter. So many objects that I looked at, and I did 6[?] subjects on my brief visit, trying to eliminate all that was unnecessary to my purpose. Not enough time, but I was struck by the colour of those wildflowers growing in an old enamel pot. Ruby Red, as if they were welcoming me. Ruby could not pose, but her wildflowers did. Daufuskie Island is a five-mile long island off the coast of South Carolina, accessible from the mainland only by ferry.

    By Stephen Scott Young
    Located in New York, NY
    Image dimensions: 29 ¼ x 21 ½ inches Framed dimensions: 45 x 37 inches Signed and dated at lower left: SSYoung / 99' Island Games (Lucky Shot) depicts a pair of young Bahamian boys engaged in a game of marbles, one of the artist's signature themes. Scholar William Gerdts writes: In these works, Scott not only depicts young individuals engaging in a popular activity but shows their intensity and competitiveness while conveying their camaraderie. The pictures are not so much about "winners" and "losers" as about the boys' concentration on the game and the interest shown by onlookers....The sense of community evoked in the series suggests that playing marbles...

  • "THUNDER ROLL", watercolor, glass, kitchen, travel, memory, identity, home, love
    By Fleur Thesmar
    Located in Toronto, Ontario
    THUNDER ROLL is a watercolor on Arches paper by Fleur Thesmar. The artwork measures 22x30". It is professionally framed in white, with UV protection and anti-glare glass. Framed it measures 26x34". A recurring subject for the artist, a world traveller, is memory and landscape, possessions and identity. In "Thunder Roll" we see cherished wine glasses in a carton being packed or unpacked, either way in a state of transition. The play of light on the glass and on the wrapping paper suggests sunny days and warm moments. And the presence of the leaves adds a natural, wholesome energy to this home. From Fleur Thesmar – "The painting "Thunder Roll" is part of a body of work called “Removal” which features semi-realistic still lives of clothes, bubble wrap and sometimes cardboard and glasses. It questions themes​ such as possession and identity, removal and travel, memories and storage. It also resonates with landscapes and here, with the summer fields in France before the storm. I store memories of large tables, wine glasses and lace napkins...
