Rebecca Klementovich
Somersworth, New Hampshire
Artist Rebecca Klementovich paints expressionist views of the New England landscape. Merging her lifelong interest in fashion, she co-founded the group Femme Fatales of the North. We are painting in gowns on the tops of mountains and slapping paint on canvases, says Rebecca. We are an example of who the northern women are as artists. Her colorful palette and gestural style draw influence from her long career in the fashion world. Rebecca studied fashion illustration at FIT in New York and worked as a textile designer and art director for over twenty years. After leaving New York, she moved to northern New Hampshire near Mount Washington. The mountains are nostalgic and lyrical, and this greatly affected my landscapes. Today, she spends many hours observing the fields, forest and sky, and the changing seasons.

Artist Statement
I'm always trying to express the nostalgia, imagery, and feelings the mountains provoke in me. How they are so beautiful and mysterious. My other subject is trees, such as the small spaces the limbs make, the wind moving their branches, or the light peeking through their leaves. I am fascinated with the painting process, and where it takes me. I paint very loosely and partly abstract so I can find any nuggets of unexpected strokes or color combinations to make the painting more alive. The more gestural the piece, the faster the paint flew.
