About the Item
"Yellow House" by Wisconsin artist Robert Richter is an original oil painting on wood, signed on the verso. The frame was created and hand-carved by the artist, making it integral to the work. In the painting, the side of a yellow house with brown trim is visible over the top of a knotted pine fence. Behind the house, lush green trees fill the background, leaving the top quarter of the space for the cloudy blue sky to peak through.
Art size: 48" x 36"
Frame: 55" x 43"
Artist statement: "I was born in Milwaukee over half-a-century ago in the year of the horse. I started painting in earnest when I was eight years old. My parents saw that it might be nice for me to take some art lessons. I spent Saturdays in those days drawing Superman and Batman (Batwoman too, Ha!) from comic books. My formative brain was stamped with the creedo that one cannot make a decent painting without making a decent drawing. To this day it is a self-imposed limitation (?) that opens my world. Later I would graduate from the University of Wisconsin, Madison and then off to New York City with a Fine Art degree.
I painted store front windows, speak easy murals for gangsters, lithographs from aluminum plates for actors, wood paintings for funk musicians, stage sets for theatre, T-shirts, costumes, curtains, wall hangings, furniture, floors- I painted everything, literally. Years later in a distant city, I received a Masters degree in Contemplative Buddhist Studies.
I draw and paint from memory. When I am satisfied with a drawing, I incise it on wood panel. I color it in not too unlike a coloring book, staying pretty much within the lines. It keeps me from getting too carried away. It is a forgiving technique. I do not use photographs. I try to paint the snapshot in my head and heart. Another little thing I like to do is incorporate the sensations of many colors in a single application. A black top road for instance is noted for its peach, lavender, smoky gray yellow and dry blue- to create the sensation of all these colors in a single application. Now that would be some crayola crayon! Another painter once remarked to me, "Why bother". And here is why. I want my paintings to be stunning from across the room, to beckon, as all good paintings should. And then up close, what a surprise! So simply done! Even a cave man can do it!
I am pleased and honored to be currently represented by David Barnett."

Jon Blanchette “East Santa Cruz, California” Mid-Century Original Oil Painting
By Jon Blanchette
Located in Denver, CO
This vibrant mid-20th-century oil painting, “East Santa Cruz (California)” by noted California artist Jon Blanchette (1908–1987), beautifully captures the dramatic atmosphere of the coastal landscape. A luminous yellow farmhouse stands in striking contrast to a sweeping sky of deep gray storm clouds, creating a compelling interplay of serenity and impending weather. Blanchette’s refined brushwork and masterful use of color highlight his gift for evoking mood, light, and the quiet poetry of the California coast.
Painted on canvas board, the work exemplifies Blanchette’s signature romantic realism, combining inviting detail with expressive atmospheric effects. The painting is professionally presented in a custom archival frame, enhancing its depth, texture, and timeless appeal.
