March Avery

   

March Avery most likely drew before she talked. Daughter of renowned American painter Milton Avery, March was trained to paint by her father at a young age. She has maintained a painting studio in New York City for many years where she continues to paint. Her style is very much in the Avery tradition, but with a directness and eloquence unique to herself. She paints landscapes on large canvases emphasizing broad areas simplified in both color and form. Her colors range from vibrant to subtle. She utilizes unique gestural strokes of paint to bring detail to her work. She does figurative work, still lifes, and playful paintings of animals, drawing inspiration from her farm in New England and the New York City Zoo. Her work can be found in many museums and private collections throughout the United States.

Joan Griswold

  Have A Look - Oil on Canvas Painting by Joan Griswold  

Joan Griswold’s paintings are explorations of light and the atmosphere light creates as it falls on both exterior surfaces (i.e. buildings) and interior spaces (i.e. bedrooms or work spaces. Most of her work dispenses with details which detract from the mood sunlight creates as it falls on these surfaces and in these spaces. She is capable of capturing the beauty of the patterns light creates on architectural forms as well as the ambiance of the light streaming through a door or window into a private interior space. Her brushwork is seen but its fleeting quality seems to reinforce the passing moment - missed if not brought to our attention by her. She has been exhibiting her work for over twenty years in solo and group exhibitions. Her work has been written about extensively in major art publications and is collected both privately and publicly.

Joseph Sheppard

 

Still Life with Chinese Kymono Painting by Joseph Sheppard

 

Sheppard has been painting and sculpting for over fifty years. His subject matter ranges from traditional "nature morte" (still lifes) reminiscent of the seventeenth century Dutch painters to gritty urban realism a la "the Ashcan School" of the early twentieth century. His most recent traveling exhibition entitled "Beast of Burden" was a kind of journalistic expose in paint of the working men, women (and children) around the world. The viewer will find no abstraction in Sheppard’s work, the artist firmly believing that the content of painting must proceed from, reflect, and involve the visible world - whether beautiful in the traditional sense or be the reflection of the ugliness of the real world. Sheppard’s work is in the permanent collection of museums worldwide - most recently in the National Portrait Gallery. He has written several books on human anatomy for artists, and is a staunch adherent of the classical traditions in art. The University of Maryland is in the process of opening a museum dedicated to his work.

The Best of Realism

Loing Canal Cepoy Oil on Canvas Painting  

This exhibit will present the best of realism to our audience. It will feature works by Charles Jarboe, Jenness Cortez, Paul Hennesy, Arthur Day and other outstanding realists working with the gallery. Charles Jarboe is a Baltimore artist who has been exhibiting for over twenty years in both solo and group exhibitions. He has been featured in several national magazines, including Art in America and American Artist Magazine. He is equally comfortable bringing his brand of realism -a realism of astonishing detail - to city or countryside. Jenness Cortez lives in New York and has exhibited there in both galleries and museums. Her paintings are reminiscent of the meticulous work of the Dutch Still-Life Masters. Paul Hennesy has been with the gallery for many years, and brings his realistic style to small towns in Europe as well as the Virginia countryside where he resides and paints. He loves to capture the play of light on material surfaces, especially small bodies of water. His paintings appear in important private and museum collections. Arthur Day is a Washington, D.C. native who concentrates his focus on Washington, D.C. cityscapes as well as New York City street scenes. His paintings are exceptionally well-balanced from a geometric as well as a color perspective, lending them an unusual abstract quality not found in most realistic work. His work is highly prized both publicly and privately. This exhibit will also double as our Holiday Exhibit and will take us through the new year.

Donny Finley   The Museum and Subway Oil on Canvas Painting by Donny Finley  

Donny Finley needs no introduction to many of our collectors. He brings an extraordinary painterly quality to all his work, leaning ever so slightly to the style of the Impressionist Masters. He is equally comfortable with both landscapes and cityscapes. His work has a kind of mesmerizing ambiance which leads the viewer into their own imaginary universe - whether it be an experience one has had at a flower market in Paris or at one of the grand hotels in New York City. His landscapes are gentle reminders of the soothing qualities of the natural world. Mr. Finley is one of the galleries’ most highly acknowledged painters, both on the local and national levels. His work is highly collectible, and appears in prominent private and public collections.

Herman Raymond    

Herman Raymond has been voted one of the top fifteen artists in America by the American Federation of Arts. Mr. Raymond is not new to the art scene. He has been painting for over fifty years, having studied at the prestigious Art Students League in New York when starting out as a young artist. He paints in an impressionistic style, and some of his subject matter hearkens back to the Impressionists of the late nineteenth century. Flower gardens, harbor scenes, and cultivated land (i.e. vineyards) are just some of the subjects he chooses to paint, but with his own unique vision. Mr. Raymond’s work appears in many prestigious collections.

Carroll Sockwell    

Carroll Sockwell was born in a segregated Washington, D.C. in 1943. Sockwell had a troubled childhood; however, his artistic talent was recognized early by a teacher at the Corcoran School of Art. This recognition gave him the confidence to head to New York City at the age of seventeen, where he immersed himself in the art movements of that time - in particular, Abstract Expressionism. He returned to Washington, D.C. in 1963, finding there a city which itself has become an important art center. Sockwell immersed himself in the Modernist works assembled there, especially in those at the Phillips Collection. By the early 70's Sockwell’s work was drawing the attention of curators at Washington’s top museums, and he was given a solo exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in 1974. His work was also included in group exhibitions at the Brooklyn Museum and at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City. Sockwell’s work, while extending from the Modernist tradition, bears the strong stamp of his unique personal psyche. Sockwell integrates geometric and gestural abstraction, a seemingly incongruous combination which makes his work unlike that of any other painter. In his later works personal and troubling motifs are evident. These probably resulted from personal trials as well as the larger social crises of the times. In all likelihood, Sockwell will eventually be recognized as one of the giants in his capacity to reflect, in his artistic work, the power of social crises on an individual’s private world. Sockwell’s work can be found in most major American museums.

Hugh O'Neill    

Hugh O’Neill was born in Ireland in 1959, receiving a Fine Arts Degree from the University of Ulster, Belfast. While earning his Degree, he also spent time painting and studying in France. He has been exhibiting successfully in Ireland, France, and the United States since 1984. O’Neill’s style is direct and bold. He considers nature his ultimate teacher - his sole motive for beginning a painting is to capture the beauty and visual stimulation he experiences at a particular place. O’Neill is a gifted draftsman with a deep understanding of the power of color and tone. He measures his success by his ability to stir in the viewer a genuine emotion and interest in the scenes he paints. He defines modernism as "a frank expression of one’s self". Mr. O’Neill’s paintings are collected internationally and can be found in many private, corporate, and public collections.

Jenness Cortez   Homer's Summer Painting at Marin-Price Galleries  

Jenness Cortez, born in Indiana, began her artistic career at the age of sixteen under the watchful eye of the noted Dutch painter Antonius Raemakers. The Dutch tradition is highly evident in her work, her most prized paintings being highly realistic still-lifes and landscapes. She has an astonishing capacity to render realistic depictions of everyday objects onto the two-dimensional canvas. Her works are also quite thought-provoking in that she frequently incorporates allusions to the great paintings of former generations of artists in her works. Her work is highly sought after both privately and publicly.
