My name is Rita Levinsohn and I am a painter. I paint mystical figurative paintings and abstractions composed of acrylic paint and found objects.

A little bit more about my work. The painting above, "Silent Screams" reflects my concern for the future of our planet. It depicts various species that are threatened with extinction and there are references to the lost American Indian culture.
Acrylic, 40" X 40"

I also use found objects to create many of my paintings. This work reflects my concern for the future of our planet. I hope to communicate to my viewer that it is possible to create rather than destroy. The message being that both animate and inanimate objects can have many incarnations.
