About the artist:
Hope was born July 22, 1939, in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Her family moved to Palo Alto, California, during World War II, where her father worked at Moffett Field and later for Borg Warner. After the war, her family relocated to Mexico City where her father and grandmother founded MORESA, an automotive parts manufacturing business. Upon graduating from the American School, Hope attended the University of Colorado in Boulder, where she planned to study architecture. It was there that she met and married Ronald Lee Stevenson, Hope later completed her education in 1970 earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley. Hope taught art and Spanish for 10 years at the junior high and high school levels in Eaton, Colorado. It was really after her children, Mark and Brian, had graduated from high school and college and left home that Hope embarked on her remarkable career as a professional artist. She began showing her work in Colorado and later in galleries in California, including Carmel and Laguna Beach. As Hope's career gathered momentum, she and Ron moved to a home that Hope designed just outside of Mendocino where she showed her work at the Highlight Gallery and the Mendocino Art Center. Over the next 20 years, she became one of the better known and accomplished artists in Mendocino. While her talent crossed a variety of media, she was best known for her plein air work in landscapes with a palette knife. Hope also taught private lessons and group seminars and classes at the Mendocino Art Center and in various locales in Hawaii, Bermuda and Europe. During their years in Mendocino, Hope and Ron traveled extensively, doing house swaps for a month or more at a time with families from France, Spain, England and the Netherlands.
Hope continued to paint and teach classes in Mendocino after her diagnosis of Alzheimers, but in 2008 she and her family determined that a move to Portland, Oregon, where her sons lived with their families would be most beneficial for her long-term health. Hope discovered a plein air painting group in the Portland area and shifted the focus of her painting to landscapes in the Pacific Northwest.

- Untitled, Two people in the fieldBy Edna HibelLocated in San Francisco, CAThis artwork "Untitled, Two People in the Field" c.1970, is an oil painting on canvas by American artist Edna Hibel, 1917-2014. It is signed at the lower left corner by the artist. The canvas size is 30 x 40 inches. It is in good condition, It has been recently revarnished. About the artist:Edna Hibel, a painter of sentimental pictures of children, has had a more than 60-year career as painter and lithographer and promoter of peace through exhibitions of her artwork. She was born in 1917 in Boston, Massachusetts. Her parents were Abraham and Lena Hibel, and she was raised in the Boston area and educated at Brookline High School where she met her future husband, Theodore Plotkin. She began to paint when she was nine years old and learned watercolor during summers at the shore where her family vacationed in Maine and Hull, Massachusetts. Hibel studied at the Boston Museum School of Fine Arts, from 1935-39, receiving a Sturtevant Traveling Fellowship to Mexico. In Boston, in 1966, she began lithography, continuing in 1970 in Zurich, where she still works every year. She has created lithographic works with up to 32 stones (or colors) on paper, silk, wood veneer and porcelain. The latter pieces are called lithographs on porcelain and result from a complicated process, that she keeps a secret, whereby she transfers stone lithographic color separations onto Bavarian hard paste porcelain. Hibel has created the "Arte Ovale" series and various plaques with this technique. She organized the Edna Hibel Museum of Art, in Jupiter, Florida, to display and promote her work and also created a United Nations stamp, "Mother Earth." In 1995, she was commissioned by the Foundation of the U.S. National Archives to commemorate the 75th anniversary of women receiving the universal right to vote. At the ceremony, Ms. Lucy Baines Johnson referred to Hibel as the "Heart and Conscience of America." In November, 2001, the World Cultural Council based in Mexico City gave her the Leonardo da Vinci World Award of Arts. Hibel's work has been exhibited in museums and galleries in more than 20 countries including Russia, Brazil, China, Costa Rica, and the United States, and under the royal patronage of Count and Countess Bernadotte of Germany, Count Thor Bonde of Sweden, Prince and the late Princess Rainier of Monaco and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of England. Pope John Paul II gave her a medal of honor as did the late Belgian King Baudouin. She also received honorary Doctoral degrees including from Eureka College, and Northwood University of Florida, Michigan and Texas. She also has received many humanitarian honors for her charitable efforts for children's and medical charities. Her exhibitions "Golden Bridge" and " Peace Through Wisdom" were efforts to promote peace and cultural understanding between China, the United States, Yugoslavia and Russia, and a television documentary titled "Hibel's Russian Palette" was based on her trips and art shows in Leningrad, now St. Peter...Category

- Seaview, Fire Island, New York, Sand Dunes, Ocean SideLocated in San Francisco, CAThis artwork titled "Seaview, Fire Island, New York, Sand Dunes, Ocean Side" 1956, is an oil painting on canvas board by Italian/American artist Xavier Barile, 1891-1981. It is signed at the lower right corner by the artist. Also signed, dated, and titled on the back. The canvas board size is 12 x 16 inches, framed size is 22 x 26 inches. Framed in an ornate wooden gold frame, with black velvet liner. It is in generally excellent condition, the frame have some minor restorations, barely visible and 2 small area where the velvet is scratched. About the artist: Xavier J Barile was a Social Realist painter, teacher, lecturer, graphic artist, and writer. He was born March 18, 1891, in Tufo, Italy. His love of beauty manifested itself at a very early age. During his early teens, he used to design monograms for the young girls of his home town, Tufo, Italy, to embroider on their most precious possession, their hope chest and trousseau. In 1907, his mother brought him, his two younger brothers and two sisters to New York, to join their father who had been in New York for several years, preparing the way. He quickly learned English and spent some time helping his father, who was earning a living for the family as a tailor. Having learned English well, Barile then enrolled in the Evening Art Classes at Cooper Union Institute in New York. In due course he enrolled in the Art Students League, New York City. Here he came under the influence of John Sloan, Reginald Marsh and Victor Perard as teachers and George Luks, Robert Henri and Everett Shinn of "the Eight" as friends and colleagues. In 1939 John Sloan dedicated his book, Gist of Art as follows, "To my old friend, first monitor of my first class at the Art Students League 1914." This friendship and mutual regard lasted until Sloan's death in 1951. Of course, it was only natural that Barile should be a part of the "Ashcan School," painting the New York Scene. During this time that he was on his own he worked with all mediums - oil, watercolor, pastel, casein, charcoal, etc. - and he did some fine work with monotypes. It was during these years, the 20's and 30's, that he began to exhibit in such places as the Whitney Studio Club (forerunner of the Whitney Museum of American Art), The Kit Kat Club, The Anderson Gallery, The Cincinnati Museum, The New Mexico Museum, National Society of Painters in Casein, The Salmagundi Club and many other exhibits throughout the United States. He is currently represented in The National Collection of Fine Arts (NCFA) Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. In the mid 30's, like many another struggling artist, XJB worked on the WPA Art Project. One of the murals he worked on is in the U.S. Customs House, Bowling Green, N.Y.C. In this project he collaborated with Reginald Marsh who was the supervisor of this phase of the work. The years until 1939 were spent working in all parts of the United States and in conducting his own classes for aspiring artists. In 1939, on the recommendation of John Sloan, he became the founder, first teacher and Chairman of The Department of Fine Arts, Pueblo Junior College, Pueblo Colorado...Category
