BEHIND THE SCENES
Rebecca Kanfer is a professional artist working out of her Long Island City art studio; she has worked on landscape based oil and watercolor paintings for over 15 years. Born in Burlington, Vermont she now lives in New York City and works as a landscape architect. Rebecca has exhibited throughout the northeast region of the United States, including NYC galleries and in Europe.
Urban and natural landscapes are complex and interconnected, as are individual experiences people have in the landscape. Rebecca’s works seek express these unique complexities, and capture the intimate connection to landscapes she has experienced, through use of color, line-quality, day-light-time, and sense of movement or stillness.
Her paintings include landscape scenes covering a spectrum from urban New York to the country side of Tuscany. In each there are lyrical moments which speak to life and human connection to the natural world. The inclusion of trees throughout signifies a long duration of time, and incredibly dynamic connections within the landscape scenes. They indicate a fundamental connection between even the most disparate landscapes.
