Welcoming back Denise Regan
She's Baaack! And I'm so happy to see new paintings from the studio of Denise Regan after a long health hiatus. And she's on a roll, painting vibrant still lives that are anything but still. Fearless color fills the canvas with interlocking patterns. Tipped tables, tumbling objects, and cascading flowers threaten to burst beyond the picture plane. As Helen Harrison wrote in the New York Times, Regan "packs her colorful canvases with stylized yet opulent shapes and patterns, crossing back and forth between still life and decoration for its own sake." Playful yet serious, generous in spirit, these paintings radiate what can only be called joie de paint.
Regan lives and works in Massachusetts, with work in numerous private and public collections and exhibitions in galleries across the United States.
