| But Sferra's nostalgic tenderness toward her predecessors is coupled by a more remote perspective toward her subject matter. |

This locates her at the end of the 20th century and also at the end of the abstract mileiu that was first so joyfully inspired by forms and color free from the overbearing conventions of description. Sferra also admires Agnes Martin; however, her paintings are not analogues of nature, but places that maintain the structure of their identity as her memory filters and reduces them to a simplified image.

The subject of Sferra's medium size paintings are predominantly shorelines, islets and isolated roads captured with tonal harmonies of pale blues, muted ochres and warm greys. Combining distance with atmospheric softness, the artist evokes a metaphysical stillness. Edges II Acrylic on Gessoed Paper 24" X 30" $ 850
