About the Item

FREE SHIPPING New Images coming Soon Bayou Bend is contemporary oil landscape painting on canvas 30 x 40. Bayou Bend was painted in 2022 by Texan artist Steve Parker . The location is at the back of Bayou Bend in Houston, Texas. It is painted on the banks of the famous Buffalo Bayou. Bayou Bend is the MFAH house museum for American decorative arts and paintings. Displayed in the former home of Houston civic leader and philanthropist Ima Hogg (1882–1975), the collection is one of the finest showcases of American furnishings, silver, ceramics, and paintings in the world. The house is situated on 14 acres of organically maintained gardens in Houston’s historic River Oaks neighborhood. Steve Parker conveys his understanding of Texas landscapes and the use of native trees. Steve Parker's landscapes depict Brenham, Chapel Hill, Washington County, Buffalo Bayou and Lake Livingston. There is a feeling of recognition, of the familiar and yet of the elusive Texas landscape. The visual space of the painting entices one to imagine the changing light and atmosphere on a Texas pond or a sudden mysterious ray of light across a Buffalo Bayou. By looking inward, Parker has created a view which Texas nature is constantly changing. Steve Parker's paintings have enough definition to become recognizable while retaining a loose painterly quality. The painting always bring the viewer back to Texas. Steve has been an Instructor at the Art League of Houston for over 30 years.
