Ron Blumberg Still-life Paintings

American, 1908-2002

Rob Blumberg was an accomplished artist who painted in a dizzying variety of styles, including Impressionism, Postimpressionism, Surrealism, Futurism, Expressionism and abstraction. Across these distinctive changes that took place throughout his career, his work consistently possessed a vibrant and passionate glow.

Blumberg was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, in 1908. He studied at the National Academy of Design in New York City, the Art Students League of New York and the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris. In 1932, he moved back to New York, where he became a National Academy artist and a member of the Art Students League of New York.

Blumberg moved to California in 1940. In 1950, he opened a prominent private art school in Westwood, Los Angeles. In support of a California statute that granted royalties to artists from profits on resales of their work, he co-founded the grassroots group Artists for Economic Action. As its chairman, he worked closely with state legislators to bring California to the forefront of promoting artists’ rights.

Blumberg’s most prolific period was from 1947 to 1951. Often referred to as his “psychological period,” he delved into many different modernist styles. After 1952, he favored a palette knife over a paintbrush for creating his art. He died in 2002.

Blumberg’s works are part of the permanent collections of major museums, including the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, DC, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

View from the Train: Cityscape Oil Painting, View of Brooklyn
By Patty Neal
Located in Hudson, NY
View from the Train, 2019 24" X 40" x 1", oil on canvas This contemporary oil painting depicting a metropolitan view is the work of realist painter Patty Neal. The painting offers an intimate view of the city, as seen from a window, as it peeks from behind two metal structures. The dark browns and bright golds beautifully compliment the dusty blue, gray sky. Neal works highlight everyday city scenes, utilitarian infrastructure, and industrial or electrical apparatus. Artist statement: A life is an accumulation of experiences: visual, emotional and mental. By compartmentalizing these snippets of life we create boundaries. The focus of my work for many years has been the exploration of these various life aspects and how they are bound together or bound from each other. My process is often literally composed of boundaries. I make a painting by putting together multiple panels, or I segment a single panel into separate visual spaces. The works are made up of pieces or elements of city and landscape. While exploring the concepts of boundaries I play with visual “reality.” Sometimes I combine images that are upside down with those that are not and juxtapose images from different contexts. Literal boundaries, such as walls fences, expanses of water and highway median strips are also used. My intent is to invite viewers to look beyond these boundaries to see the possibilities of a connected whole.

Sunny Winter Morning - Impressionist Landscape Oil by Robert Wakeham Pilot
By Robert Wakeham Pilot
Located in Marlow, Buckinghamshire
Signed and dated oil on panel landscape by Canadian impressionist painter Robert Wakeham Pilot. The piece depicts a view of rural landscape in Quebec, Canada in winter. The bare trees and the ground are covered in blanket of white snow. Blue sky breaks through the cloud above. The spire of the church from a nearby village can be seen on the horizon. This work pairs with another recorded 5 x 7 inch example painted in 1916 by Pilot that was painted near the Hotel Dieu in Quebec City - the work was likely painted in February of that year just before Pilot enlisted in the Canadian Expeditionary Force to serve on the front lines in France. Signature: Signed and dated 1916 lower right Dimensions: Framed: 15.5"x17" Unframed: 5.5"x7" Provenance: The Dominion Gallery - Montreal, Canada (stock number B2594) The Isaacs Gallery - Toronto, Canada Robert Wakeham Pilot DCL MBE RCA (9 October 1898 – 17 December 1967) was a Canadian artist, who worked mainly in oil on canvas or on panel, and as an etcher and muralist. He is known for his ability to capture the tone and atmosphere, especially at twilight, of the landscape of Quebec. Pilot is the last of the Canadian painters considered "to lend authority to Canadian Impressionism". Pilot was born at St. John's, Newfoundland, to Edward Frederick Pilot and his wife Barbara (née Merchant). In 1910, his widowed mother married the artist, Maurice Cullen...
