About the Item
"Watershed" by Ann Getsinger, 2019
36 x 48 inches
Oil on Linen
39 x 51 inches framed (brown wooden floater frame)
Ann Getsinger’s oil paintings have been described as ‘realism with a twist.’ Real objects are placed in locations drawn from memory and imagination, in locations and circumstances which materialize as the work unfolds, forming paintings which combine careful planning with free-falling.
In this framed, horizontal landscape painting, purple mountains contrast against a dramatic sunset.
Firey shades of orange and yellow transition to pale greens and teals dappled with darkening clouds. Spruce and other trees line a rocky riverbed along a shimmering river. Quite unexpectedly, a single antler rests on the shore, glistening and reflecting sunlight.
The artist's powerful connection to place is evident as most of the backgrounds show either the Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts or the mid-coast area of Maine, her favorite places to live and paint.
Classically trained in traditional realist techniques, the artist applies those skills to reflect both visible and invisible worlds. Her many visual art influences include the work of Magritte and other surrealists, N.C., Andrew, and Jamie Wyeth, Julio Larraz, and Gregory Gillespie.

Ann Getsinger
Artist Statement:
Rarely making preliminary sketches, I work as realistically as I want over an abstract foundation, essentially letting my mind wander in an intuitive way between subconscious, conscious, and super conscious. Integrating still life, landscape, and figures, painting is a trip into the many ways that anything relates to everything. My work reflects my life by integrating stillness and motion, a sense of time and timelessness, and most of all–mystery. I often find myself in a place of enormous freedom, full of surprises. Bio:
Born on Oct. 22, 1956, Ann grew up in Watertown, Connecticut. As the youngest of five in a creative household, her earliest memories are of making artwork. After studying at Paier School of Art in New Haven, CT, and the San Francisco Art Institute, she settled permanently in western Massachusetts where she studied privately with realist artist Sheldon Fink. The artist’s home and studio is in the rural Berkshire town of New Marlborough, Massachusetts. Since childhood she also works regularly in the mid-coast area of Maine. She has a lifelong connection to both communities.

- Peach Lilies (Contemporary Still Life of Vibrant Tiger Lilies, Oil on canvas)By Dan RupeLocated in Hudson, NYPeach Lilies (Contemporary Still Life of Vibrant Tiger Lilies, Oil on canvas) by Dan Rupe 22 x 22 inches oil on linen canvas Signed on reverse Artist Dan Rupe paints only from life, his composition ruled by his intuitive sense of formal order. He begins covering his canvas with a deep crimson wash. This ground gives his brilliant pure color , applied with an expressive, direct gesture, an electric charge. No matter how often or how long one looks at a Rupe painting, it is always the present tense. The tone of his palette, the freshness and clarity of primary colors, reflects an optimistic attitude, an intrinsic love of life. In this work, three vibrant peach colored lilies open their blooms amidst bright green grasses. Rupe succeeds at capturing the immediacy of his subjects be it flowers, buildings or people. Read below for an amusing profile written about the artist in 2003: You‘ve likely seen him on the streets of Hudson, seated before his canvas in a multi-colored paint daubed t-shirt and shorts, his straw hat providing shade for all but his tanned forearms and knees.
