2018

Modern impressionist style figurative painting of a family in a colorful park landscape “Park Spring” painted by William Clutz in 1996 60 x 50 inches in a natural wood floater frame Wire backing, signed lower right This figurative oil on canvas painting was made in 1996 by William Clutz as part of a series of works called "Crossings". These paintings were a study of NYC dwellers engaging in the simple, daily activity of crossing the street.

1970's landscape painting on canvas of a view in Medellin, Colombia Calming atmospheric yellow, blue, and green palette Made in 1979 by Bill Sullivan oil on canvas, unframed 24 x 40 inches signed, lower right This modern landscape painting was made by Hudson Valley based artist, Bill Sullivan, in 1979. Interested in the style of the Hudson River School painters such as Frederic Church and Thomas Cole, Sullivan sought to adapt traditional landscapes with a modern lens. During the 1970's and 80's, Sullivan traveled in the footsteps of Frederic Church, capturing the same scenes the late artist made famous 100 years prior. Here Sullivan paints a picturesque scene overlooking a mountain range in Medellin, Colombia. Titled 'Pablo's View', Sullivan perhaps envisioned Pablo Escobar...
