The British artist Natasha Kissell's oil paintings pay simultaneous homage to the best designs of both nature and man. Her visions of pastoral perfection, which go on view at London's Eleven Fine Art Gallery today, include beautifully rendered illustrations of modern and minimalist architecture, which she draws with the clarity and care of a property development brochure. For Kissell, these images of ideal up-to-date domiciles—the clean, strong lines of the buildings always in striking contrast to the opulence of the greenery surrounding them—are a way to update the landscape tradition, but they're not entirely serious. She sprinkles her work with charming instances of surrealism (like an elephant trudging through the snow in "The Elephant Escapes") that serve as somewhat wistful reminders that natural splendor and incredible architecture are accessible to most people only in their wildest dreams.
