Mellow Yellow, an original modern painting on canvas dating from 2018, executed in mixed media with watercolor and charcoal, signed by the artist, depicting a woman with arresting eyes in a vibrant palette of yellow, pink and white, measuring 143 by 100 cm and weighing 1000 g, originating from the Netherlands and sold directly from the artist, not ready to hang as the canvas is rolled and would need reframing locally, and in excellent condition.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This striking acrylic and charcoal painting on canvas invites a deeply personal connection. Layers of collage-like surfaces, a hallmark of the artist's technique, create intriguing vistas. Detailed elements are masterfully juxtaposed with rough, abstract textures and patterns, drawing the viewer into a visual dialogue. The artist embraces a departure from strict realism, using foundational photographs as a springboard for this expressive piece.
The resulting artwork is a vibrant celebration of color, featuring a captivating portrayal of a woman with arresting eyes. Its bold and inviting nature encourages individual interpretation, offering a dynamic visual experience that both attracts and intrigues. This piece is designed to spark conversation and contemplation.
This oversized statement piece is perfect for a prominent wall in your living room, dining area, or even a spacious entryway. Imagine it commanding attention, its rich colors and layered complexity becoming a focal point that enriches your home's aesthetic. Don't miss the opportunity to bring this captivating work into your collection.
Ready to hang: no, the painting will be rolled and needs to be stretched again by your local framer. Shipping extra-large formats rolled is safer and more environmentally friendly than shipping finished works. The canvas can easily be stretched on-site by a framer near you.
Seller's Story
The work of Romy van Rijckevorsel is daring, colorful, very inviting for personal interpretations and not without obligation!.
Romy van Rijckevorsel paints in an eclectic way. In her work you see many references to classical artists. (eg Gustav Klimt, decorative backgrounds, but also Egon Schiele). It is also eclectic because of the different styles: drawing, graffiti, painting and
graphic elements. All these elements are very successfully combined into an organic whole in which there is also a unique handwriting lurking. That is very smart, because the combination of references and styles can also go wrong very quickly. In Romy's work, however, she stops at exactly that
right moment. The paintings are very postmodern in the sense of "everything is possible" and yet it is not restless at all. On the one hand the works are very decorative and on the other hand also hard and almost provocative and vulgar. Yet they are balanced, partly due to
the strong composition. (jury report Painting of the year 2020, eventually finished 9th out of 1250 applications)
