FS: Canadian Original Oil on Canvas Painting
rmoores
I have for sale three original oil-on-canvas paintings by very
well respected Canadian artists.
(1) A quintessential prairie scene by Inge Claussen,
"Saskatchewan Gold", is one of the best she has ever done and
has to be seen to be appreciated. It is not one of her
commercial-type Rideau Canal winter scenes.
(Image 16 x 20; Framed 29 x 25) Asking $1200.00
(2) Jean Louis Hebert is one of Canada's best painters, working
out of the New York art milieu. The painting that I have,
"Port St. John's", is indeed a quality piece of work and must
be viewed from the perspective of both the artist and the
image. The use of colours, tones and shades allows the viewer
to appreciate the depth of the artist's abilities.
(Image 20 x 24; Framed 33 x 29) Asking $2200.00
(3) "Memories" is one of several paintings from a rare
collection of personal images by the Saskatchewan artist
Betty Rudd. The careful use of lighting to
deepen the image lends itself to sharpening the meaningfulness
of her use of traditional methods of realism, perspective and
form. The balance and almost eerie use of colours is her
trademark and, as seen in this painting, they calculating
serve to impress on the viewer the contradictions of the
Spartan, but warm and cozy, uncertainty of the reflection
contained in the scene.
Frame: 21x18; Image: 16x12. Asking $1200.
The artist is a farmer just outside the small town of
Rosetown, Saskatchewan. Her husband and their families have
been wheat growers since the early 1930s and are widely known
throughout the "bread basket" as quintessential prairie
people. It is from this background that the artist finds the
passive solitude and gripping impressionism of her art.
You are, of course, encouraged to research my comments by
talking to local art galleries and art associations and to
have the paintings verified. I assure you my statements are
accurate and not exaggerated.
Give me call, or e-mail, if you are interested and I will
forward to you a jpeg image of the painting. Or, if you
live in the Ottawa area, we can arrange a time
for a viewing.
