About the Item

Dianne L. Massey Dunbar's (US based) "Cupcake" is an oil painting depicting one lone cupcake with white frosting and sprinkles in soft light interior setting. About the artist: When Dianne Massey Dunbar was very young, her elementary school teacher noticed that she possessed “unusual artistic talent”. Her parents immediately set up private art lessons with artist, illustrator and instructor, Harold Wolfinbarger, Jr. She studied with him for several years and mastered skills like drawing and mixing paint early on. Other of Massey Dunbar’s influences include Quang Ho, Mark Daily, and Vincent Van Gogh. While Massey Dunbar has tremendous respect for artists who seek out beauty in nature (nudes, flowers, vistas, etc.), she prefers to paint ordinary objects or people engaged in their usual routines. “I consider myself a fairly ordinary person, so perhaps I can relate more to a bottle of ketchup than I can to a vase of flowers,” she says. Her work attempts to reveal the unseen beauty and underlying spirituality of everyday life. Dianne Massey Dunbar has received much praise and recognition for her work, including numerous awards and honorable mentions at shows and exhibitions across the country. This recognition, she says, makes all her sacrifices as an artist worthwhile. Dianne currently resides in Denver, Colorado, where she paints continuously and is actively involved with Denver’s Art Students League.

Cherry Chocolate Cupcake

Cherry Chocolate Cupcake

By Matt Jacobs

Located in Fairfield, CT

The bold flowers and repeating geometric patterns in this series of paintings are lushly modeled in oil paint, and are coupled with the use of inlaid wood. Surrounding the colorful and whimsical bouquets and garlands is a border of complimentary colors rife with kaleidoscopic floral images to further entice the eye. Influences of Persian miniatures and French Baroque are prevalent, as well as traditional floral painting which was used to document nature’s beauty. The artist states, “By using subject matter that is historically decorative and painterly, I seek to explore the medium’s more ethereal content.” The paintings become visually intense and hallucinatory as different varieties of flowers and leaves dance and intertwine in the geometry of the surrounding patterns. Traditionally mysticism was effectively communicated in painting through an assortment of lyrical, painterly indulgences, creating a supernatural, as well as an escapist experience. Matt Jacobs...
