Austin & Italy Oversized Wall Art

Brad Ellis is a Texas-based artist whose focus is on abstract painting. Throughout his career, he has continually experimented with imagery from tightly rendered, systematic patterns to loosely constructed, expressionistic compositions. He has distinguished himself by embracing the ancient medium of encaustic which is hot wax painting and is a process by which heated beeswax is mixed with pigments and applied to board or canvas and then fused to the surface with a heat source. Brad approaches each new painting with the same consistency that he's employed for many years now which he referred to as “Pattern, Rhythm, and Process.” He typically starts each painting by building up layers of paper and/or fabric collage materials by cutting and mounting these pieces onto the canvas or board and arranging them in a way to form the underlying pattern of the painting. This helps lay the foundation for the initial imagery and paves the way for the applications of the other mediums.

Austin Beiv grew up on the tough streets of Brooklyn, where self-expression was usually done through wall tagging, or as they say in Italian, "graffito." He was heavily influenced by contemporary artists like Fernando Carlo, who was well known for his expressive graffiti. This childhood exposure gives Austin's art pieces their signature edge and contemporary look. After graduating from the Pratt Institute in the early ’90s, he began traveling all over America to seek inspiration, whether from a tagged wall or an art museum, embracing all the unique and expressive simplicities life offers.

Kim is an Austin-based artist specializing in abstract paintings. She was raised in Houston, TX where she realized her passion for art at a young age. After years of focused practice, she studied at Texas Christian University where she fostered her love and skill in painting. In Kim's adult life, art has opened doors to professional apprenticeships in Austin, Houston, New York, and London; and opened up worldwide travel opportunities including extended stays in India, Zambia, Western Europe, and Southeast Asia. Kim's practice is inspired through her training and travel as well as by abstract expressionists whose lives and careers explored questions of space, identity, and subconscious through abstractions, repetition, and process. Namely Helen Frankenthaler and Agnes Martin.

This enchanting photograph captures Giacomo and Stefania Montegazza welcoming guests arriving by boat at their villa, La Cassinella, on Lake Como, in 1983. The image epitomizes the timeless elegance and refined hospitality that have defined Lake Como's aristocratic culture for centuries. La Cassinella, one of the lake's most prestigious private villas, represents the perfect fusion of Italian architectural heritage and contemporary luxury living that attracted international society to this legendary Alpine paradise. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Italian Alps reflected in Como's pristine waters, this photograph showcases the sophisticated art of Italian entertaining, where arriving by private boat represents not just convenience but a continuation of centuries-old traditions of lakeside nobility. The scene captures the essence of la dolce vita at its most authentic, where the Montegazzas embodied the gracious lifestyle that made Lake Como the preferred retreat for European aristocracy, international celebrities, and discerning connoisseurs of Continental sophistication. Slim Aarons, renowned for his evocative photographs of, as he described it, "attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places," was the quintessential chronicler of high society. After serving as a war photographer, Aarons turned his lens to a new landscape: the glamorous lives of Hollywood elites, Palm Beach socialites, and jet-setting debutantes and princes. His work for society publications captured an aspirational world of leisure and luxury that defined the American upper class throughout the mid-20th century, creating images that remain timeless symbols of sophistication and style. Every piece in our unique Slim Aarons collection is meticulously handcrafted using archival materials and printed on premium, luster photographic paper with environmentally safe inks, custom framed by skilled artisans who ensure that each work of art meets the exacting standards befitting such an iconic photograph.

Donna Bernstein is a self-taught artist, painter, and sculpture. Donna drew and painted horses since she was a child. What differentiates her work is that, unlike most “equestrian” Artists, she did not grow up around horses. She did not live on a ranch. But instead, was spiritually connected to horses with an intuitive sense of them. Donna studied them voraciously; their anatomy, form, and attitudes. She had to create her horses in order to have them, her imagination played a great role, and so her stylized abstractive works reflect a non-realistic perspective, but with accurate anatomy.

Wow - this piece is even more beautiful than I expected! I'm so happy I purchased it!!!. Kim. Middleburg, VA. Thu Jun 13 2024

This captivating photograph captures the seaside swimming pool at the Hotel Taormina in Sicily in August 1975. The image epitomizes the sophisticated resort culture that transformed Sicily's eastern coast into one of the Mediterranean's most exclusive destinations during the 1970s. Taormina, perched dramatically on Mount Tauro overlooking the Ionian Sea, represents the perfect fusion of ancient Greek heritage and modern luxury hospitality, where the ruins of Greek theaters coexist with world-class resort amenities. This photograph showcases the refined Italian approach to coastal leisure, where the hotel's seaside pool creates an intimate oasis between the dramatic Sicilian landscape and the azure Mediterranean waters. The scene captures the essence of la dolce vita siciliana, when Taormina attracted international luminaries who appreciated the unique combination of cultural richness, natural beauty, and sophisticated hospitality that made this ancient town a timeless sanctuary for discerning travelers seeking both relaxation and inspiration.

Shawn Thomas is a photographer from Austin, Texas. His education and professional background are in social work, education, and statistics, and I continue to be interested in utilizing social science research to better understand how all people can master themselves and their environments to realize their potential and their dreams. "In my work, I generally don’t go looking for the most amazing waterfalls or vistas or architectural wonders, though I am happy to photograph those amazing subjects whenever I have the chance. Instead, I more typically go out to explore everyday scenes or objects in which wonders exist but often go unnoticed. I would like my work to turn people on to the many amazing things that surround them every day, and the brilliance within that too often goes unnoticed. Like a yellowed leaf that’s fallen on the hood of a deep blue car, or two bright green vines that meet and wrap around each other in an empty space."

Kimmy Quillin is a New York-based artist whose life is a wandering road of creative experimentation. Color is of central importance to her work, found in bold geometries of solid color or swoops of bending backgrounds. Unexpected harmonies and borderline discords balance precipitously on their proportions and spatial relationships. Kimmy finds joy in letting her eyes travel over a painting, finding the special juxtapositions or interactions, that seem like a little smirk or a quiet joke. She finds the paintings to be playful and tender in character, but also deliberate to give pause.

It’s perfect for my space. For the price, it’s on the cheaper side.. Tobi. West Orange, NJ. Sun Sep 24 2023

Jess has been painting with watercolors and oils on large canvases, small scraps of paper, and everything in between for as long as she can remember. She went to Savannah College of Art and Design, never thinking that one day she would “actually” become an artist. That took a bit longer to realize. But here she is, living the dream. Jess's mission is simple: to make beautiful work that makes people feel extraordinary. Her aesthetic is influenced by her African upbringing - using simple lines, rich colors, and organic shapes to capture life in every form. She believes the process is just as important as the outcome, when she's in a flow and she enjoys the process the work feels fresh, effortless, and alive. After she conceives a new idea she tries to spend some quality time with it - to let it sink in. Then usually the work comes out very quickly. If it doesn’t, she never forces it, she just goes outside for a bit, clears her head, and comes back later. It’s amazing what fresh air can do for perspective.

As the daughter of an artist, Julie was always exposed to and dabbling in different mediums. While she took countless art classes, she never landed on a particular medium that called to her. Her need to be creative instead led her down a path that included an MFA in advertising design and a decade-long career as an art director. After stumbling upon alcohol inks at an art show and experimenting at home, Julie had finally found HER medium - the process itself spoke to her like none other had before. It is the actual process of working with alcohol inks that she really enjoys. She literally pours combinations of ink and rubbing alcohol and directs the ink with a heat embossing tool that blows hot air, so there are no brushes or contact with the surface. It's like a little science experiment every time and is extremely rewarding. Julie's work tends to be vibrant, playful, and full of layered movement.

"Versace and Spagnol," captured by Slim Aarons on June 1, 1983, in the serene beauty of Lake Como, Italy, radiates the effortless glamour of fashion's elite. This enchanting photograph portrays Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace and Lalla Spagnol relaxing on a motor launch, their stylish presence framed by the sparkling waters and the majestic facade of Versace's 17th-century villa. The scene captures the heart of 1980s lakeside leisure, weaving creative genius with tranquil sophistication, evoking a timeless romance that continues to enchant lovers of Italian elegance and waterfront allure. Slim Aarons (1916–2006), born George Allen Aarons, rose from humble origins and World War II combat photography to become a celebrated chronicler of the elite, vowing post-war to photograph only "attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places," with his works gracing magazines like Town & Country and now preserved in the Getty Images archive. This exquisite reproduction from Soicher Marin is printed on premium luster photo paper using state-of-the-art techniques, ensuring vibrant colors, sharp details, and enduring quality that brings a touch of mid-century sophistication to any space.
