Our Best in Painting collection was curated to bring together a selection of our most sought-after paintings on the platform. Hundreds of paintings are added to Rise Art every month. Each one in this collection has been selected and approved by our curators; our Best in Paintings showcases a range of our team’s favourites from leading contemporary painters. Exhibiting Artists Hand-picked by our curatorial team, the collection features paintings from artists that have exhibited in all of our London exhibitions. Our first exhibition, Leap of Faith included works from Joe Hesketh and Sue Kennington, as well as from Amy Dury who also exhibited a body of work in our two-person show, Amy Dury & Philip Maltman. The Best in Paintings collection also featured artworks by artists such as Day Bowman and Niki Hare, who both had paintings in our Satellites Exhibiton, and new artists Iain Andrews and Robbie Bushe, who joined the platform after exhibiting in our Emergence Exhibition.

The Monet collection showcases abstract landscapes, impressionist scenes of nature and expressive impasto pieces. Monet’s Style Claude Monet is known for being one of the pioneers of impressionist art. Working towards the later half of the 19th century, Monet is one of the most famous French artists in history. He transformed the landscape genre and introduced plein-air painting to the fine art tradition. Monet’s reflections of the French countryside document the passing of seasons, the changes in light and the act of responding to nature as it is perceived, rather than as it is. Featured Artists Jacek Malinowski creates work that blend elements of abstraction and realism. Jacek’s paintings are infused with bold colours and fine brush strokes to capture the atmosphere of far flung landscapes. The work of Monet has always been an inspiration for British artist Wayne Sleeth. Wayne reimagines Monet’s approach in much of his work, as recognisable motifs such as waterlilies and light reflections are depicted alongside text. Olga Bezhina follows a layering process whilst working. Using oil paint, she builds up the surfaces of her canvases with defined strokes that come together to create semi-abstracted impressions of light and nature.

A Perfect Fit Each work in the collection is one-metre squared, from paintings, to prints, to photography. You do not have to compromise on style or taste when looking for a particular size of artwork. Any Piece Can Make a Statement By bringing larger work into your collection, you can create impactful hangs in your home or business. One work of a metre or over can create a statement when displayed alone, making it a lasting, worthwhile investment.
