“A Garden View 2”, by Maine artist Anita Loomis, is an explosion of spring color bursting from the canvas. This medium sized oil on canvas was inspired by spring as well as the prior painting A Garden View 1, which rests within a reclaimed window frame. Envisioned as a glimpse of a past or future spring garden, elements of a fence can be made out in the composition. With painted gallery edges, the color continues around the edges. This abstract oil painting has heavy impasto texture and Loomis’ characteristic use of active black line, as well as her affinity for intensely saturated pinks and greens. The original title of this work is Skipping Through the Garden: View 2, which has been simplified for this listing. Anita Loomis is a painter who works from her studio in Kittery, Maine. Communication and the natural world are key subjects of her paintings. Her occasional tonal landscapes offer views of imagined natural spaces for escape and contemplation. Anita Loomis creates paintings that explore facets of human dialogue and relationships. Through painting, humor, and a deep curiosity about human imperfection, she investigates what it means to navigate communication with people who see the world through different cultural lenses. Loomis paints to shine a light on the common threads that connect our human experiences and spotlight the value of empathy. Loomis earned her BA in Studio Art from Framingham State University in Massachusetts, and her MA with a concentration in Arts Management from the University of Central Florida. She worked in the field of architectural stained glass for fifteen years and has focused on painting since 2004. She lives and works in Kittery, Maine. Her work has been exhibited at Miller White Gallery, South Dennis, MA; Fountain Street Gallery, Boston, MA, and various exhibitions in New England, Pennsylvania...
