Cécile Duchêne Malissin
French artist Cécile Duchêne Malissin paints lush portraits and landscapes using her signature jewel-toned color palette. Contrasting elegant and bright figures with dark backgrounds, her paintings exude a dreamlike quality. Cécile graduated from the Superior School Arts Appliqués O. de Serres in Paris and has taken part in numerous exhibitions across Europe. See more of Cécile’s work here.
Ionel Alexandrescu
Italian sculptor Ionel Alexandrescu crafts dynamic metal forms, often abstract or figural, that invoke action or movement. Modeling the natural imperfections of metal in the sculpture’s form, his works are just as much about the material as the subject. Ionel attended the Bucharest Academy of Fine Arts in their Sculpture program and has since exhibited extensively across Italy. See more of Ionel’s work here.
El Lovaas
Based in San Diego, Norweigan artist El Lovaas creates delicately layered, contemplative abstract works. Her attention to detail—such as the positive messages she writes on the canvas, which are eventually covered and invisible in the final composition—contributes to the overall effect of her work. El has been featured in the Saatchi Art print catalog and has participated in The Other Art Fair. See more of El’s work here.
Ian Turnock
British sculptor Ian Turnock’s circular wall and standing sculptures feature silhouettes of leaves and branches, calling to mind the shadows cast by trees upon building walls and the forest floor. Ian received his degree in Graphic Design, and his work has been featured in the Saatchi Art print catalog. See more of Ian’s work here.
Nikkie le Nobel
Dutch artist Nikkie le Nobel paints complex and striking views of plant life, often seen through textured glass or against traditionally patterned tile. Nikkie graduated from the Academie voor Beeldende Vorming and is featured in Saatchi Art’s 2024 Rising Stars catalog. See more of Nikkie’s work here.
