Alexandra Levasseur was born in Shawinigan, QC, Canada and now lives and works in Montreal, QC, Canada. She earned a BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Costa Rica. Alexandra explains the work by saying, “My work portrays tormented female characters amidst landscapes that seems to be coming out of a dream. The central themes that I explore in my approach are love, fear, anguish and unrequited desire. In recent years, I am interested in both the solitude and the bipolarity of the existence of the human being, through the representation of memories. I question the relationship between physical comfort and peace of mind, and how the environment around us can affect this state of mind. Then, the word “relationship” struck me as key. The search of the “relationship” between things is what interests me. In this context, with “Chaos is a dancer,” I questioned the idea of relationships as the basic element of all that exists and life itself. I represented the planet earth as a single organism. Nothing is destroyed, everything is transformed.”

Like a lot of art on this blog, Meghan Howland’s beautiful portraits have a very dreamlike atmosphere. Her characters seem to be represented in a more complex context however, balancing somewhere on a line between danger and security. I love how she includes natural elements in her paintings, such as flowers and birds.. It raises […]
An ode to the serene beauty of the Scottish wilderness, this exquisite print captures the enchanting Roseroot herb poised against the natural majesty of Ben More, Isle of Mull. Stylized in the distinctive sinuous curves and elegant motifs characteristic of Art Nouveau, the piece interweaves flora and landscape to create a symphony of colour and form. Foregrounded are delicate clusters of Roseroot, their soft pink blooms gracefully arching towards the sun, set against a verdant backdrop of layered foliage and vivid orange flowers reminiscent of a painter's wild garden. These botanical elements, vibrant yet soothing, seem to pulse with life against the geometric solidity of the cliffs. The rocky terrain is rendered in a mosaic of cool blues and greys, creating a striking contrast to the warm, lush flora. Harmonious and organic, the partitioned rocks take on an almost tessellated quality, a testament to the union of natural form and artistic interpretation. Receeding into the distance, the tranquil blues of the sky and waterscape meet, their subtle gradations and gentle undulations suggesting both the calm and the power of the sea. This dichotomy is mirrored in the softness of the distant hills, shaded in misty blues and purples that invoke the vast and mysterious Scottish landscape. This print offers a journey for the eyes, inviting the viewer to explore each element and appreciate the serene beauty of Scotland's unique flora and formidable cliffs. An art piece that not only serves as a decorative addition to any space but also a reminder of the timeless allure found within nature's own gallery.

Andrea Kowch has been described as “a powerful voice emerging, demonstrating a highly sensitive consciousness that informs a culturally-laced symbolism.” Born in Detroit, Michigan in 1986, she attended the College for Creative Studies through a Walter B. Ford II scholarship and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BFA in 2009, double majoring in illustration and Art Education. Her paintings and works on paper are rich in mood, allegory and precision of medium; reflecting a wealth of influences from Northern Renaissance and American art to the rural landscapes and vernacular architecture of her native Michigan. The recipient of many honors early on in her young career, commenced in 2003 at the age of 17 with seven regional Gold Key awards and two national Gold Medal awards from prestigious Scholastic Art and Writing Awards. Her acceptance into these juried national exhibitions earned her representation at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. in 2003 and at the Diane von Furstenberg Gallery in New York in 2004. By 2005 she was granted a National ARTS in the Visual Arts Award from the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts (now the National Young Arts Foundation); an honor that ranks recipients in the top 2% of American talent. The winning entries were exhibited at the Margulies Collection at the Warehouse, Miami. In 2008, Kowch received the Best of Show Purchase Award from the Northbrook Library’s annual juried international exhibition, and in the same year received an Illustration Faculty Award from the College for Creative Studies. Kowch has since gone on to receive numerous other Best of Show awards in various juried exhibitions of regional, national and international caliber, and has exhibited in several solo and group exhibitions at museums and galleries, including the New York’s RJD Gallery, The Muskegon Museum of Art where her solo retrospective Dream Fields debuted in 2013, the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Jacksonville, the Grand Rapids Art Museum, ArtPrize, Art Basal Miami, the Los Angelos Art Show, ArtHamptons and SCOPE NYC, who in 2012, named Kowch one of the top 100 emerging artists in the world. She has also been featured in, and graced the front covers of several national and international publications including; Spectrum, Direct Art, American Art Collector, CMYK, Revue, Womankind (AU), .Cent Magazine (UK), Hestika (ITA), Hi-Fructose and Southwest Art’s annual competition whose winners take center stage in their Emerging Artist Spotlight issue. Kowch’s work can be found in public collections, among them the Muskegon Museum of Art, Grand Rapids Art Museum, Northbrook Library, Northbrook, Illinois and the Brooklyn Art Library, Brooklyn, New York and in many significant private collections worldwide. Kowch resides and works in Michigan where she paints full time, but also serves as an adjunct professor at the College for Creative Studies. She is represented exclusively by the RJD Gallery in New York.

I’ve named this collection of my recent figure drawing work “Élan Vital” after philosopher Henri Bergson‘s concept of a dynamic impulse manifesting in evolution and creativity. Figure drawing is the ongoing practice or discipline through which I strive to perceive the world and my fellow beings not as objects, but as patterns of flowing energy. […]
