Lucy Doane was an established artist, illustrator and teacher whose regionalist style captured the life of the Northeast during the early part of the 20th century.
Born in Nahant, Massachusetts Lucy Doane graduated from Lynn Classical High School in 1925. She discovered a passion for artmaking early on in her life and went on to pursue an undergraduate degree from the Massachusetts College of Art (1929), and an MFA from Teachers College at Columbia University in New York. She did further study at the Netherlands Institute of History and Art.
Early in her career, Doane worked as an illustrator of children's books, including the popular Pennie, which was published by Arlo Publishing Company in 1927. As Doane matured as an artist, her attention shifted to painting. She was enchanted by landscapes of Vermont and the shores of the eastern U.S. coastline. Sailing, in the Wolfson Collection, is a subject that Doane explored often in her work. The canvas is divided up into 4 sections; waves and shoreline, sailboats, dunes and a stormy sky. The abstracted swirl of wind and wave in the foreground adds playful energy and suggests that Doane did not restrict herself to realistic representations of the land around her but had knowledge of symbolist and abstract approaches. The simplified, flat forms show the influence of Modernism’s flattened planes.
Doane taught art for several years at Keene Teachers' College in New Hampshire and then become Director of Art for the Rutland, Vermont public schools. She served for decades, retiring in 1971. Doane liked to travel and took numerous trips to Europe and Asia.
After retiring from teaching, Doane lived for a number of years in Bennington, Vermont, where she was active with the Bennington Area Acts Council, the Southern Vermont Arts Center and the Bennington Museum.

MOUNTAINSCAPE contemporary landscape with mountains
By Linda Jacobson
Located in Palm Desert, CA
The moon shining in a luminous blue night illuminates two trees in a flowing, lyrical and sinewy relationship. The interpretive landscape has a dream-like quality and is inspired by a landscape Jacobson encountered in North Yorkshire, England. Jacobson creates her paintings with many layers of acrylic paint on canvas, giving her work a luminous and translucent quality. The vivid, saturated, jewel-like colors and strong compositional elements express the spiritual essence of nature. On gallery wrapped canvas. Linda Jacobson's paintings are lyrical abstractions inspired by her love of landscape and its elements: form, movement, light, and what she perceives to be its essence an energy or quality that goes beyond visual appearance. Born in Los Angeles, she received her BFA from California State College, Northridge, and graduated Summa cum Laude from the prestigious Art Center College of Design where she was mentored by pioneer California modernist Lorser Feitelson. Her work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums throughout the United States and abroad, including MRG Fine Art, in Los Angeles; Gallerie Rohling, Berlin, Germany; California State University Channel Islands in Ventura; Karpeles Museum in Santa Barbara, California; BG Gallery in Santa Monica; George Lawson...
