172.7 x 172.7 cm"All of my paintings are based on found amateur slides from 70 years ago. I am interested in the 'comfortably familiar' nature of the images and how the elapsed time allows them to 'prickle with new meaning' to connect that which was worth capturing with that which is worth painting, at present."

172.7 x 172.7 cm"Isca Greenfield-Sanders’ figured landscapes transport viewers to light-dappled lakes, mountain trails, rustic sites where wildflowers bloom, and ocean shores bounded by sandy beaches and sunny skies. These are well-trodden places that people like to visit. Often, they appear to be startingly familiar. You might feel that you have already been there—or to somewhere very similar."
