Tracy Baker-White started painting at Williams College and continued her studies at the Lacoste School of Art in Lacoste, France. After completing a Master’s Degree at the University of Washington in Seattle, Baker-White worked for 25 years as an art educator in Texas, California and Washington, D.C.
Baker-White is attracted to landscapes for their beauty, but also for their historic and metaphoric quality. “I am a contemporary realist interested in the intersection between real and abstract, and the relationship between photographic images and painted ones. Although my imagery is usually derived from a real place, I have no compunction about rearranging elements, creating composites, or simply creating landscapes out of whole cloth.”
Baker-White has received numerous awards and exhibited her work in many juried exhibitions throughout New England. We invite you to stop by the gallery to view these magnificent paintings in person.
Sono Fine Art is excited to kick off our fall show schedule with an outstanding exhibition of romantic realism masterfully created by New York artist Nick Savides. In the classic narrative tradition, Nick’s paintings reveal personal stories to the observant viewer and love is often the underlying theme.
My favorite painting in the show is Central Park-Bethesda Terrace in Autumn. Nick’s setting is a celebrated New York landmark, the perfect NYC metaphor featuring the small oasis of trees and pond overshadowed (maybe protected) by massive buildings. And so many people enjoying themselves – I could easily see myself among them. Incredible details to take in (Can you find the horse and buggy at the top of the stairs?) Then you spy a couple seated in an unceremonious brown rowboat captured in a tender kiss and the painting takes on new meaning.
I confess I’m a classic romantic – I love a happy ending. Nick’s paintings put us in familiar places and renew our favorite memories. Nick restores my faith in contemporary realism. I encourage you to stop by and enjoy the show that I like to think of as “Art for Lovers.”
Sono Fine Art is excited to announce the launch of our Artist Showcase newsletter. Each week, we feature a different artist and introduce a selection of the paintings on display in the gallery. Part of the fun of owning contemporary paintings is getting to know the artists who create them. It is our hope that you will appreciate the diversity and selection of the incredible artists and paintings we offer.
