This terrific, unique mixed media Artists Palette was created by renowned artist Jane Hammond and Connecticut based Trompe L'Oeil painter Arden Mason for a fundraiser in support of Friends of Olana -- an effort to preserve the Frank Church Estate (called Olana) in Hudson New York and save it from the hands of developers. In 1967, Olana was designated a New York State Historic sight, and The Friends of Olana was created in 1971. It later became known as the Olana Partnership. Many artists who worked or lived in the region would contribute works to the annual Friends of Olana art auction to raise funds for the preservation of the Estate. Arden Mason, who himself lived in an iconic, sprawling Litchfield Connecticut mansion, joined forces here with Jane Hammond to create this Artist's Palette, featuring a small Trompe L'Oeil work depicting a landscape and a mansion -- possibly even Olana.
Elegantly framed in an acrylic shadow box frame.
The work can be hung in different configurations.

About Jane Hammond:
New York-based artist Jane Hammond is a self-described forager, collector, hoarder, and a “more-is-more person.” Her wit, unexpected juxtapositions, and recognizable iconography have defined her 40-year career and are visible across the artist’s diverse body of work, including painting, printmaking, photography, and mixed-media artwork .
Early in her career, Hammond amassed a collection of 276 found images that she photocopied from technical manuals, antique children’s books, handbooks on magic, and botanical guides. This visual collection became a fixed lexicon, or personal language, for the artist. She began using her image collection, in a collage-like manner, as building blocks to construct meaning—reusing, remixing, and recombining imagery in a process she refers to as “recombinant DNA.” By limiting herself to this set of imagery, she relies on the combinations and arrangements of these objects to create meaning and reveal narratives that are mysterious, witty, and nostalgic. She was influenced by the late composer John Cage. She collaborated with the poet John Ashbery, making 62 paintings based on titles suggested by Ashbery; she also collaborated with the poet Raphael Rubinstein.

More about Jane Hammond:
The works on paper by Jane Hammond are a complex melange of materials and mediums which can include acrylic and gouache paint, graphite drawing, rubber stampings, color copier transfers, transfers from magazine illustrations and fruit labels, linoleum block printings, and ink drawings. Hammond derives her images from a multitude of interests including phrenology, astrology, knot diagrams, magic tricks, medical and technical illustrations and shadow puppets to name just a few. The combination of these disparate images depicted in such a variety of media gives Hammond's works on rice paper a wonderfully rich feel. The artist's unique works on paper begin with stacks of various cutouts, Xeroxes and stampings from which she chooses appealing images to start gluing and layering. As she works, all the seemingly dissimilar elements begin to trigger associations with other images or ideas for the artist, which she continues to develop using the transfers, prints, paint and ink. This deliberate degree of suggestion carries through in her paintings as well, allowing the viewer opportunity to connect these images by drawing on their own interests and associations. Hammond uses a hermetic lexicon of messages and images, investing her paintings with complicated but unspecific meanings. Hammond has had solo exhibitions of her work in galleries in Sweden, Spain, Detroit and Seattle. Her museum exhibition Jane Hammond: The Ashbery Collaboration traveled to the Museum of Contemporary Art, Cleveland, OH; Madison Art Center, WI; Blaffer Gallery, Houston, TX; and The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu, HI from 2001 to 2003. The Whitney Museum of American Art presented a solo exhibition of her mural painting Backstage at the Whitney Altria in 2002, and the Weatherspoon Art Gallery of the University of North Carolina organized a solo exhibition of her paintings in 2003. In 2004, she was an artist-in-residence at Dieu Donne Papermill, New York City.

More about Arden Mason
“I paint to glorify nature with the hopes that I will inspire the people who see it. I wish for my painting to provoke the magic that gets lost in our daily existence.”
Arden continues the tradition of the “plein air” painters who have concerned themselves with the infinite changes of light and shadow, atmosphere and weather that one observes directly in nature. He feels that the job of the painter is to go beyond the mere recording of the details in the scene before him. Arden succeeds in evoking a sense of place and time of day in his paintings, showcasing the harmonious and often fleeting relationship of nature to our lives.
