About the Item

Penny Whent (American, born 1949) "Blue Sycamores" 2025 Acrylic Paint, Canvas, Stretcher Bars The artist signed the back of the painting. “Blue Sycamores” by Penny Whent evokes the quiet mystery of a moonlit forest through the artist’s distinctive post-impressionist style. Tall sycamore trunks rise rhythmically against a darkened sky, their silvery forms illuminated by the soft glow of the moon. Deep layers of blue, green, and white are applied with textured brushwork, creating both atmosphere and depth while capturing the stillness of night. This lyrical landscape conveys both strength and serenity, making it a striking statement piece for collectors drawn to expressive nature-inspired works. About the Artist: Penny’s artistic journey began in childhood, influenced by her architect‑photographer father in Pacific Grove. Penny is largely self-taught, having explored block printing, watercolor, photography, and drawing before embracing painting. Her art, once a part‑time practice during her years as a paralegal, now flourishes full‑time in her Monterey home studio. Penny translates the landscapes of the Monterey Peninsula, Lake Tahoe, and the Sierra Nevada foothills into post and abstract impressionist canvases that glow with emotive color and expressive still lifes. Her work has been featured in numerous galleries throughout the Monterey Bay area, including Carmel, Pacific Grove, and Big Sur.

Amanda Horvath, Moonlight Phantasy, Contemporary Woodland Painting
By Amanda Horvath
Located in Deddington, GB
Moonlight Phantasy [2021] Original Acrylics on canvas Image size: H:30 cm x W:30 cm Complete Size of Unframed Work: H:30 cm x W:30 cm x D:3.5cm Sold Unframed Please note that insitu images are purely an indication of how a piece may look "Moonlight Phantasy" comes from a lovely wood near my home in the High Peak. When the moon is full you can walk in the evening and it feels almost as light as day. The wood is quiet with dark tones of the trees creating shadows in the pale moonlight. An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on deep edged canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. From these beginnings I work intuitively, painting some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife. Harnessing optical mixing techniques employed by the impressionists and some of the methods of the old masters such as scumbling and glazing. I continue working until the painting reaches a natural conclusion. The result is a contemporary painting, which lies somewhere between abstraction and realism. The painting continues round the sides, a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang. Amanda Horvath...

Night Trees
By Walter Hahn
Located in Surfside, FL
Early in the 1950s, WALTER HAHN was a force to be reckoned with in Chicago painting. In 1951, his final year as a student at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC), Hahn won first prize in oil in the Chicago and Vicinity exhibition. As this was a purchase prize, this placed his work in the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, provoking jealous awe from some of his teachers. Born in 1927, Hahn studied with Kathleen Blackshear...
