About the Item
Signed lower right, 'Dooley' for Helen Bertha Dooley, (American, 1907-1994); additionally signed, verso, and titled 'Hat Lady'.
Exhibited: Carmel Art Association, California, 1983.
Provenance: Dr. Richard Ferguson, San Francisco.
Helen Dooley was born in San Jose and first attended San Jose State College, now San Jose State University. She graduated in 1928, continuing her art studies at San Francisco's California School of Fine Arts and, subsequently, at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles and New York's Columbia University. During the 1930s, she also painted and studied with several pioneers of California Modernism including Maurice Sterne and Millard Sheets.
In 1948, Dooley was appointed Professor of Art at the College of the Pacific, a position she held until her retirement in 1964. She then moved to Carmel, California where she opened the Dooley Art Gallery which became a fixture of the Carmel art community for over thirty years.
Dooley was an active member of the Society of Western Artists, the West Coast Watercolor Society and the Carmel Art Association. She exhibited widely and with success including at the Haggin Museum (1962), the Oakland Art Gallery (1930s, 1943, 1945), the California Palace of the Legion of Honor (1951, 1st prize), the De Young Museum (1951), the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art (1943, 1945), the Carmel Art Guild (1946), the Springville Museum of Art (Utah), the Crocker Art Gallery, and the Laguna Beach Art Association. She also exhibited with the American Watercolor Society, the Monterey Peninsula Museum of Art, the Carmel Art Association and at London's Royal Watercolor Society and among other national and international institutions. Helen Dooley's work are held in private and public locations including the permanent collections of Japan's Shimizu Art Museum and the Monterey Peninsula Museum of Art. We are pleased to offer a large and exuberant figural work by this notable California Modernist.
