Frame Size: 19 inches by 22 inches Gregory Sumida (Born 1948) Born and raised in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles to Japanese parents, George and Alice Sumida, Gregory Sumida is a painter of "Old World dedication". He grinds his own paints, stretches the canvases and makes the frames. His primary subjects are Plains Indians in landscape, such as Crows and Shoshones, and his primary media are gouache, charcoal, watercolor, tempera, and oils. His styles vary from impressionism to realism to western to Japanese influence, and he is dedicated to continually changing and growing. Gregory has been painting the American Indian and North American wildlife for many years and has enjoyed a successful career. Sumida is a self taught artist. His life altering inspiration came from a visit to the Los Angeles Art Museum and a conversation about Andrew Wyeth with actor Charlton Heston. Sumida expressed great admiration for Wyeth, and Heston suggested he write to him. Amazed at getting a response, Sumida not only received a cordial note but a critique of a painting he had sent. Wyeth also advised him: "Don't take lessons." He is also a photographer, writer, musician and philosopher.Gregory Sumida is a painter of "Old World dedication". He was included in the show No Other Land: A Century of American Landscapes Heather James Fine Art, Palm Desert, California along with Andrew Wyeth, Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams, Dan Namingha, Georgia O'Keeffe, Joseph Kleitsch, N.C.

Mixed Media Farmhouse, Barn Oil Painting Collage
By Jacques Lamy
Located in Surfside, FL
A contemporary mixed media painting on cloth, plaster and board created by listed Texas artist Jacques Lamy (French/American, 1946 – 2016). The piece uses a combination of woven and printed cloth, plaster, burlap, textured board and paint to depict a rural farm landscape under blue skies. The work is signed by hand to the lower right. Born in Paris in 1946 and raised in the heart of an idyllic French countryside near the Loire Valley, Jacques Lamy began painting at a very early age. Jacques completed his formal artistic training at the prestigious Ecole Nationale Superieur des Arts Decoratifs (Paris) in 1971. While there, he received the highest peer recognition in European Arts; the coveted Prix de Rome award for painting. Jacques Lamy’s career as an artist, designer and art teacher took him from his native France to life abroad in Spain, Africa, and the United States. His broad artistic interests and his classic training in art and design have enabled him to enjoy a wide variety of artistic experiences from designing furniture, lamps, tapestries, and elegant garden statuary to creating large scale murals for public viewing and enjoyment. in addition to his renowned mural work, Jacques received international recognition for his decorative fresco paintings. Jacques personal artistic style is very much a melding of old and new – a merging of a classically trained artist with a modern artistic vision. The medium is multi-media and the composition has a modern, abstract quality but the Old World training in design and composition lends the whole an air of classical grace. Examples can be seen in his studio-gallery in Dallas, Texas. ​Art Education Ecole National Superieure des Arts Decoratifs – Paris Art Teaching Casa de Velasquez – Madrid, Spain.
