About the Item
"Autumn Reflections" is a magnificent work that captures the melancholic essence of autumn through a palette of rich and deep brown tones. The surface of the canvas is a swirl of abstract textures and shapes that evoke the falling leaves and the stillness of nature in this season.
In the center of the painting, a blurry reflection can be distinguished, as if it were an image mirrored in the calm water of a pond. This reflection acts as the focal point of the work, attracting the viewer's gaze and immersing them in the serene and contemplative atmosphere of autumn.
Brown tones dominate the composition, but subtle brushstrokes of gold and bronze can also be appreciated, adding luminosity and warmth to the piece. Abstract shapes intertwine and overlap, creating a sense of movement and depth, as if the leaves were falling gently or floating in the air.
The technique employed is expressionist, with bold and gestural brushstrokes that add dynamism and energy to the painting. Each brushstroke seems to be charged with emotion and feeling, conveying the beauty and melancholy of autumn in a powerful and evocative way.
In summary, "Autumn Reflections" is an impressive work of art that combines a palette of brown and abstract tones with an expressionist technique to capture the essence of autumn in a unique and emotive manner.

- Green Darkness NatureBy Juan Jose GarayLocated in LAS ROZAS DE MADRID, ESDue to the size of the work, it was sent rolled in a tube Enamel and Acrylic on Canvas The painting I will describe is an impressive and enigmatic work that conveys an inexhaustible energy and a deep sense of creativity. The dark brown background of the painting provides an apparently calm and serene atmosphere, but the viewer quickly realizes that this work is much more than that. The work itself is an impressive example of the artistic style known as "action painting". This style is characterized by the spontaneous and energetic application of paint, with the artist using a variety of techniques and materials to create a work that seems to be driven by movement and force. In this case, the artist has used a drip and splash approach to create a chaotic and vibrant texture in the background. In the center of the painting is a female figure, represented in a series of white lines and shapes that strongly contrast with the dark background. The figure has an abstract appearance, but clearly represents a woman, with her curved and stylized lines suggesting the shape of her...Category

- Garden, Abstract Expressionist Mid-Century Modern geometric workBy Richard AndresLocated in Beachwood, OHRichard Andres (American, 1927-2013) Garden, 1972 acrylic on canvas signed, dated and titled verso 59.5 x 50 inches Richard Andres was born in Buffalo, New York in 1927. A graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art in 1950, he was immediately drafted and served for two years in the army as a mural painter. He received his Master of Arts from Kent State in 1961. A frequent exhibitor at galleries and museums and winner of multiple May Show prizes, Andres taught art in the Cleveland Public Schools for 28 years, as well as teaching the University of Buffalo, the Cleveland Institute of Art and the Western Reserve University. Very little in Richard Andres’ childhood would have predicted his love of classical music, mid-century-modern architecture and certainly not his lifelong passion for art and in particular abstract art. Richard’s father, Raymond, had no more than a third-grade education, and his mother, Clara, was one of thirteen children – only three of whom lived into adulthood and none of whom attended high school. They lived, when Richard was a boy, in a dingy area of Buffalo, NY in a walk-up apartment situated above a tavern. Raymond and Clara supplemented the income from their factory jobs in the bar downstairs with Raymond playing ragtime on the piano and Clara serving drinks. This often left Richard and his two older brothers at home alone to fend for themselves. The two older boys, Raymond and Russell, were - unlike Richard- rather rough and tumble and entertained themselves with stickball, boxing and the like. Richard, on the other hand, from a very young age liked to draw, or better yet even, to paint with the small set of watercolors he received for Christmas one year. Paper, however, at the height of the depression, was hard to come by. Luckily, Clara used paper doilies as decoration for the apartment and Richard would contentedly paint and then cut up doilies, gluing the pieces together to create collages. At eight-years-old, he discovered the Albright-Knox Museum (then known as the Albright Art Gallery) and spent several hours a week there studying the paintings. He was particularly fond of Charles Burchfield‘s landscapes, enamored with their ‘messiness’ and thinking that they somehow captured more ‘feeling’ than works he was previously familiar with. For his tenth Christmas, he asked for and received a ‘how-to’ paint book by Elliot O’Hare. Through this self-teaching, he assembled the portfolio needed for acceptance to Buffalo Technical High School where he studied Advertising Arts. In his Junior year, he was encouraged to enter a watercolor painting, “Two Barns,” in the national 1944-45 Ingersoll Art Award Contest and was one of twelve grand prize winners – each one winning one hundred dollars. More importantly the painting was exhibited at the Carnegie Institute Galleries, which resulted in his winning a national scholarship to the Cleveland School of Art (The Cleveland Art Institute). He flourished at the art school under the tutelage of faculty members such as Carl Gaertner, as well as that of visiting artists such as William Sommer and Henry George Keller. He would say in later years that Gaertner, in particular, influenced his attitude toward life as well as art. “Gaertner,” Andres said, “believed that there was no need to be a ‘tortured artist’, that an artist should rather enjoy beauty, family, and life in general.” Free to spend his days as he chose, he wandered the Cleveland Art Museum for most of the hours he was not attending classes or painting; the remaining time was spent drinking coffee at a local hangout with art school friends – which is where he met fellow Henry Keller scholarship winner, Avis Johnson. Richard was immediately smitten with Avis, but being rather shy, it took him the entire summer of 1948 to build up his courage to ask her out. Over that summer he ‘thought about Avis’ and worked in a diner to save money. He also used the hundred-dollar prize money won in High School to visit the first Max Beckmann retrospective in the United States at the City Art Museum in St. Louis. Over a half century later he spoke of that exhibit with a reverence usually reserved for spiritual matters, “I walked in and it was like nothing I had ever seen before... the color...It just glowed.” Returning to campus in the Fall, the first thing he did was go to the coffee shop in hopes of finding Avis. He did, and she, upon seeing him, realized that she was also smitten with him. They quickly became known as ‘the couple’ on campus, and a year later, with Richard being drafted for the Korean war, they were quickly married by a Justice of the Peace, celebrating after with family at Avis’s Cleveland home. As a gift, faculty member John Paul Miller...Category
