Los Angeles–based painter Dave Lebow unveils Supernatural, a new series of oil paintings that blur the line between classical realism and the uncanny. With a masterful hand rooted in academic tradition, Lebow conjures images that feel both timeless and dreamlike, weaving narratives where beauty collides with strangeness, and the everyday world slips into the otherworldly.

In Supernatural, childhood innocence meets looming dread: a young girl encounters a tentacle emerging from a suburban street drain, children are surprised by a colossal fly in a dim garage, and a barefoot girl discovers something glowing beneath the soil. Elsewhere, archetypal figures of myth and allegory take shape — an angel shadows a man in a fedora, a skeleton kneels before a bride, and women in luminous gowns commune with serpents, skulls, and bats.

Though steeped in allegory, Lebow’s paintings are not illustrations of familiar tales; they are fragments of stories untold. Each canvas captures the moment before or after revelation, inviting the viewer to step into the mystery and imagine the rest. His lush brushwork, dramatic lighting, and theatrical compositions recall the great traditions of European painting, yet his subject matter belongs to dreams, folklore, pulp fantasy, and the subconscious.

Supernatural gathers this vision into a body of work that is at once beautiful, eerie, and mesmerizing — a world where the boundaries of myth, dream, and memory dissolve.
