About the Item

Subdued bronzes and saddle leather tones provide a rich background for a cluster of mysterious, ghostlike figures--"The Visitors" of the painting's title--imagined as weathered painted finials. The richly carved frame confers a timeless feeling to this distinctive work. Signed RH, lower right, for Northern Californian Richard Hackett (1917-1988), whose work was exhibited at the University of Hawaii and the Art Center School in Oakland.

Fred Otnes Jr Mixed Media Figural Painting on Board

Located in New York, NY

Exquisite painting by prominent artist Fred Otnes, Jr of a figural woman in gold, orange and warm earth colors. This unique mixed media of oil and collage has diverse layers in the painting although to the touch the painting is smooth. This piece is painted on board and is found in a gilt leaf frame with a linen liner. Signed on the lower right corner as well as what appears to be on verso on the craft backing paper. From the personal collection of the artist. Image only is 29.25" high by 26.25" wide. Colors on the painting may vary due to room lighting and photography. Fred Otnes (1925-2015), was a prominent illustrator, painter and collage artist who embraced abstraction. “Fred Otnes brings to his collage paintings a classical refinement and control that makes poetry out of chance pictorial effects,” the artist and critic Maureen Mullarkey wrote in reviewing a retrospective in Manhattan in 2006 for The New York Sun...
