Reviews for E. L. Stewart:
|
|
|
"There's something about E.L.Stewart's work that often makes me feel like I'm looking into a private realm, voyeuristically standing on the edge of an unfolding drama or wandering into some primeval corner of an urban landscape...Bold, sometimes aggressive, brushstrokes and often intimate poses challenge the viewer to stay and be confronted, even when the figures are fully clothed...the raw and the refined coexist in each canvas-a spilled wineglass and crumpled clothing seem to underscore a sweetness and purity in the often female forms. The effect is arresting, immediate and not easy to forget."--Sheri Boggs--The Pacific Northwest Inlander
"Ms. Stewart's work with the nude is provocative. Her paintings are consistently intriguing, mysterious and compelling."--Jochen Wierich,Ph.D. Curator of Art, Cheekwood Museum of Art, Nashville, TN
"Ms. Stewart's subjects are taken from a diverse spectrum of sources. Some are drawn from various mythologies of many cultures; some from current events of the day. No matter what the source for each painting's subject, there is the same unifying vision of insight and compassion expressed throughout the works of this inspired artist."--Northwest Woman Magazine-2002
"...a perfectly seamless marriage of content and form."--L.Schleer-Arts Writer
