This one was really tough. I think sometimes artists just have to challenge their selves
to the max. This is one of those paintings. The detail never ended but I think it worked out
really nice. There's some nice metallics on this one in the jewelry and wine cap that you cannot see in the photo. I wonder if Klimt was sane after he painted all the symbolism paintings that he did?
I wouldn't be! Enjoy!


Gustav Klimt (July 14, 1862 – February 6, 1918) was an Austrian Symbolist painter and one of the most prominent members of the Vienna Secession movement. His major works include paintings, murals, sketches, and other art objects, many of which are on display in the Vienna Secession gallery. Klimt's primary subject was the female body, and his works are marked by a frank eroticism—nowhere is this more apparent than in his numerous drawings in pencil.

Gustav Klimt The Kiss

The Kiss (original Der Kuss) was painted by Gustav Klimt, during his ‘golden period’, and is probably his most famous work. It depicts a couple, in various shades of gold and symbols, sharing a kiss against a bronze background.

Two figures are situated at the edge of a flowered escarpment. The man is wearing neutral coloured rectangles and a crown of vines; the woman wears brightly colored tangent circles and flowers in her hair. The twain’s embrace is enveloped by triangular vining and a veil of concentric circles.

Similarly juxtaposed couples appear in both Klimt’s Beethoven Frieze and Stoclet Frieze.
Some think that Klimt and his beloved companion Emilie Flöge modeled for the masterpiece.


The painting coin featuring "The Kiss"
The Kiss is a discreet expression of Klimt’s emphasis on eroticism and the liberation therein. The Kiss falls in line with Klimt’s exploration of fulfillment and the redeeming, transformative power of love and art.[citation needed] The Kiss is deviant from Klimt’s frequent portrayal of women as the lascivious femme fatale.

The piece is currently at the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere museum, which is housed in the Belvedere palace, in Vienna, Austria.
Gustav Klimt and "The Kiss" were selected as the main motif for a collectors' coin, the 100 euro gold The Painting coin issued on 5 November 2003. The obverse depicts Klimt in his studio with two unfinished masterpieces on easels, while the reverse shows "Der Kuss" (The Kiss).

Modigliani Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

 Serenade to Modi and Jeanne

 Modi and Jeanne Together Again

16 x 18 

Oil Painting

Art within Art Series

Sold - Commission

Amedeo Clemente Modigliani (July 12, 1884 – January 24, 1920) was an Italian artist who worked mainly in France. Primarily a figurative artist, he became known for paintings and sculptures in a modern style characterized by mask-like faces and elongation of form. He died in Paris of tubercular meningitis, exacerbated by poverty, overwork, and addiction to alcohol and narcotics.

Read more about Modi here


As my collectors and viewers know, I am an avid fan of Modigliani's.  I never really know much about him until I bought the movie "Modi" starring Andy Garcia. I fell in love with this movie. It was a mix of true love, sadness, shame, art and a window into a beautiful but tragic story of a wonderful young artist.
I have painted several Art Museum Collection Series paintings of Modi. One that I painted was a variety of portraits that Modi did of Jeanne in and exhibit. When I posted the painting I wrote about Modi  and Jeanne and about their  tragic but beautiful life and his movie " Modi"

A viewer, now collector bought the movie and emailed me about doing a commission for her as she loves Modi and Jeanne as well. I cannot express the feeling I had while doing this commission for Sherry. I had a great connection to Modi and Jeanne as well as Sherry while creating this painting. I had the movie on and listened to the sound track many times while I was psinting. I think it is one of my best paintings this year.
I suggest this movie for anyone that has not seen it.

This painting is a combination of three of Modi's paintings. The one and only Modi self portrait, A protrait of his love Jeanne and my impression of Modi's Cellist in a very subtle, quite atmosphere and gentle light.

I want to share the email that I received from Sherry after I emailed her the photo.

_______________________


OHHHH Madison,
I have just studied the pictures on this second email! I am amazed! It is like i am looking at a REAL Modigliani...i think their spirits must have been with you. The striped sofa is beautiful...i have an affinity for stripes!!! The muscian i can hear serenading the lovers. It makes me want to cry to think how brief was their love, but how eternal when remembered in this way by a person like you. I really think Modi knows you have a connection to him,...I am serious about how like his work yours is. I LOVE it. I am so glad you have them seated together. I was thinking they would be in two paintings near each other....but this is like you have finally given them back to each other. Lord, help, don't think i am a nut for thinking this. This painting really has tremendous emotion ... and all i am seeing are the photos...what must the actual painting make one feel like. This is going over the mantel in my livingroom. I will have a "Modi and Jeanne together again" gathering to show all my friends this incredible work you have created.
You are spectacular, my dear Miss Madison!

Sherry

Georges de Feure Wine Label Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

Georges de Feure

11 x 14 inches

Oil Painting

Connoisseur Wine Masters Series

While I was researching Art Nouveau Artists I cam across

Georges de Feure and fell in love with his work.

I think I have a special attraction for theatrical and fashion designers.

Maybe from my younger experience of designing fashions for runway

models. I really had fun changing the gown to "my" specifications,

Brings back memories!

That's the best part about being an artist, it will be what "I" want it to be!

                 ...and look at those hats! Can you imagine wearing one of those with 

all those feathers and how about that gown on a runway today!

What a fun painting,

Nothing like an original painting for a holiday gift,

Contact me with your ideas.

Georges de Feure (real name Georges Joseph van Sluÿters, 6 September 1868 – 26 November 1943) was a French painter, theatrical designer, and industrial art designer in the symbolism and Art Nouveau styles.
De Feure was born in Paris. His father was an affluent Dutch architect, and his mother was Belgian. De Feure had two sons, Jean Corneille and Pierre Louis, in the early 1890s with his mistress Pauline Domec and a daughter with his first wife Marguerite Guibert (married 7 July 1897).
In 1886, de Feure was one of the eleven students admitted at the Rijkscademie voor Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam, which he did however leave very quickly for Paris since he felt that formal academic training had nothing to offer him. Being of very independent nature, de Feure never again took up formal artistic studies, and forged his own independent path. He was however influenced by Jules Chéret in his posters for the café concert but most likely was never his pupil and became the key designer of Siegfried Bing for L'Art Nouveau. He showed work in the Exposition Universelle de Paris exhibition in 1900. He designed furniture, worked for newspapers, created theater designs for Le Chat Noir cabaret and posters. In August 1901, de Feure was nominated Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur for his contribution to the decorative arts. He died in poverty at the age of 75 years in Paris.

Bearden Picasso Art Museum Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

 Romare Bearden Celebrating Picasso Exhibit

11 x 14 inches

Oil on Canvas

 Art Museum Collection Series II

 

This painting was a dream!  I had a very long conversation with a collector / friend who always has such great suggestions for me for new work. She fills my head with so many ideas that sometimes when I am trying to work out a design some of the paintings start running together. This is one of them. I was studying Picasso and Bearden at the same time. I went to sleep thinking about the composition and saw two Bearden paintings of musicians running together and a Picasso's paintings floating in the background. The next day I combined my impression of a few of his musicians from two of his paintings for the band and saw them in a very vivid colored room full of Picasso paintings floating across the walls. Such fun to paint in my dreams! LOL!

This is the first of my Art Museum Collection Series II.

  

 Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso (25 October 1881 – 8 April 1973) was a Spanish painter, draughtsman, and sculptor. Commonly known simply as Picasso, he is one of the most recognized figures in 20th-century art. He is best known for co-founding the Cubist movement and for the wide variety of styles embodied in his work. Among his most famous works are the proto-Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907) and Guernica (1937), his portrayal of the German bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War.

Picasso demonstrated uncanny artistic talent in his early years, painting in a realistic manner through his childhood and adolescence; during the first decade of the twentieth century his style changed as he experimented with different theories, techniques, and ideas. Picasso’s creative genius manifested itself in numerous mediums, including painting, sculpture, drawing, and architecture. His revolutionary artistic accomplishments brought him universal renown and immense fortunes throughout his life, making him the best-known figure in twentieth century art. His fame has continued after his death, firmly establishing his status as one of the greatest artists in Western history.

Romare Bearden (September 2, 1911 – March 12, 1988) was an American artist and writer. He worked in several media including cartoons, oils, and collage

Bearden was born in Charlotte, North Carolina. He attended De Witt Clinton High School in the Bronx and completed his studies at New York University (NYU), graduating with a degree in science and education. His education was interrupted by stretches of time he spent as a professional baseball player in the Negro Leagues. Bearden took extensive courses in art and was a lead cartoonist and then art editor for the Eucleian Society monthly journal The Medley. Bearden had wide-ranging interests and abilities. He wrote and published articles on numerous topics and created political cartoons. He designed costumes and sets for prominent dance and theater companies, illustrated books by influential authors, co-wrote books about African American art and culture and composed songs. He was also offered an opportunity to play professional baseball for the Philadelphia Athletics, if he would agree to “pass as white”—an offer he refused.

Art Museum Exhibit Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

"Jeanne, My Love"
Exhibit

12" x 9"
SOLD

Oil Painting

(click for larger view)

Art Museum Collection Series

Modigliani has to be in my top 5 favorites of artists. I will never get enough
of him. If you haven't see the movie "Modi" you really must. Modi loved Jeanne
so much. He painted so many paintings of her. Many of the first had no eyes.
When Jeanne asked him when he was going to paint her eyes, he said,"When I paint your eyes I'll be able to see your soul. A must see wonderful well produced movie with Andy Garcia as
Amedeo Modigliani.

This museum oil painting is about he fourth exhibit I have done of this artist
and there will be many more. The paintings are all of Jeanne, his love.

Queen Elizabeth Stamps Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

 

Queen Elizabeth Stamps

16 x 20 inches

Oil Painting

Figurative Series

SOLD - Commission

 I had such a task photographing this painting.

With high powered lenses today, they have a tendency

to bow the photo if there is a stright line close to the edges.

However, this is good in a way as I now have to learn to use

certain corrective filters that I didn't even know about before this

happened. I am still working on it but wanted to post this

painting anyway. This was a real challenge trying to get each

queen to look like the other. I think I did a pretty good job

as portraits are really not my favorite thing to do.

This painting is a commission for a new gallery on the UK.

If you are interested in urchasing it from the gallery please

email me and I will tell you how.

Toulouse-Lautrec Wine Label Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

 

 "Can Can"

Inspired by Lautrec

11 x 14 Oil Painting

Connoisseur Wine Masters Series

SOLD - THANKS YOU MS

This wine label painting was a lot of fun to paint.

I love Lautrec and will be doing many more.

I have always liked the figure Jane Averl

that Lautrec used in some of his poster  paintings.

I just imagined Jane painted multiple times to create 

the Can Can dancers.

The reflections created the illusion of 8 dancers.

I also used his name across the top

of the painting to keep within Lautrec's poster

themes. I really like this design.

Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa or simply Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃ʁi də tuluz loˈtʁɛk]) (24 November 1864 – 9 September 1901) was a French painter, printmaker, draftsman, and illustrator, whose immersion in the colourful and theatrical life of fin de siècle Paris yielded an œuvre of exciting, elegant and provocative images of the modern and sometimes decadent life of those times. Toulouse-Lautrec is known along with Cézanne, Van Gogh, and Gauguin as one of the greatest painters of the Post-Impressionist period. In a 2005 auction at Christie's auction house a new record was set when "La blanchisseuse", an early painting of a young laundress, sold for $22.4 million U.S.

Tamara de Lempicka Wine Label Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

Tamara de Lempicka Wine Label

10 x 12 inches

Oil Painting

Connoisseur Wine Masters Series

I was surprised to find and landscape painting

by Tamara de Lempicka as most of her work that

I have studied is figurative, cubisim from the art deco period.

This painting is called "Street in Night"

I saw this painting in many color combinations so I decided to

do my own rendition. I am still trying to figure out why

she included the pyramids?

The Figures on the wine label are my take on her

painting titled "The Kiss". This was another

surprise, especially the warm colors she used opposed to

the brilliant cool colors that hse used in most of her paintings.

So my inspirstion here was to combine two

of de Lempicka's paintings together in one composition

that I was surprised to find out of the realm for her typical paintings.

I am sure I will be doing more de Lempicka's along the way.

Lots of fun painting cubism and makes me wonder how she and Picasso

saw things within cubism...or should I say...cubism within things?

 
______________________________________

Tamara de Lempicka (Łempicka) (May 16, 1898 – March 18, 1980), born Maria Górska in Warsaw, in partitioned Poland,[1] was a Polish Art Deco painter and "the first woman artist to be a glamour star.

Born into a wealthy and prominent family, her father was Boris Gurwik-Górski, a Polish lawyer, and her mother, the former Malvina Decler, a Polish socialite. Maria was the middle child with two siblings. She attended boarding school in Lausanne, Switzerland, and spent the winter of 1911 with her grandmother in Italy and the French Riviera, where she was treated to her first taste of the Great Masters of Italian painting. In 1912, her parents divorced and Maria went to live with her wealthy Aunt Stefa in St. Petersberg, Russia. When her mother remarried, she became determined to break away to a life of her own. In 1913, at the age of fifteen, while attending the opera, Maria spotted the man she became determined to marry. She promoted her campaign through her well-connected uncle and in 1916 she married Tadeusz Łempicki in St. Petersburg—a well-known ladies' man, gadabout, and lawyer by title, who was tempted by the significant dowry.
In 1917, during the Russian Revolution, Tadeusz was arrested in the dead of night by the Bolsheviks. Maria searched the prisons for him and after several weeks, with the help of the Swedish consul, she secured his release. They traveled to Copenhagen, Denmark then London, England and finally to Paris, France to where Maria's family had also escaped, along with numerous upper-class Russian refugees

Matisse Wine Label Oil Painting by k Madison Moore

 

 Matisse Wine Label

12 x 10 inches

Oil Painting

Connoisseur Wine Masters Series

SOLD

 

Wow...this was a lot of detail to do in this one. Took me days and layers of glazes drying in between

but I love the end result. Matisse was a real talent and must have had a fun personality

as this is what I felt when I was creating this wine label painting.

The excerpt for the label was from Matisse's painting " Pink Nude" 1935 and  is now at the

Museum of Modern Art in New York.

The framed painting on the wall is" La Danse" 1909

ans is at the Baltimore Museum of Art.

Stay tuned for more Connoisseur Wine Master Series paintings.

 More about Matisse

Henri Matisse (31 December 1869 – 3 November 1954) was a French artist, known for his use of color and his fluid, brilliant and original draftsmanship. He was a Master draftsman, printmaker, and sculptor, but excelled primarily as a painter. Matisse is regarded, with Picasso, as the greatest artist of the 20th century. Although he was initially labeled as a Fauve (wild beast), by the 1920s, he was increasingly hailed as an upholder of the classical tradition in French painting. His mastery of the expressive language of color and drawing, displayed in a body of work spanning over a half-century, won him recognition as a leading figure in modern art.
