Cherry Blossom No. 12, Original Minimalist Floral Watercolor Still Life Study
By Elizabeth Becker
Located in Boston, MA
Cherry Blossom No. 12, Original Minimalist Floral Still Life Study, 2020
20" x 16" (HxW) Watercolor on Cold Pressed Paper
A simple and minimalist nature study, this botanical watercolor painting features a large, pink cherry blossom caressed by a delicate sprig of leaves in a deep olive green. A gray and blue shadow indicates depth, allowing the flower to appear as if it is popping out of the composition. The soft color palette and brush strokes, along with the bleeding nature of the watercolors, gives this work an expressive and impressionist feel.
Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed.
Artist Commentary:
Original watercolor painting on 140 lb Arches cold pressed paper (2019).

Synchromist Tree, Pastel
By Arthur Beecher Carles
Located in Bryn Mawr, PA
Provenance
The artist;
Collection of Henry Dubin, Philadelphia until 2018
Exhibitions
Avery Galleries, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, Living Color Modern Life: Hugh Henry Breckenridge and Arthur B. Carles, October 5-November 2, 2018.
The Philadelphia modernist Arthur B. Carles was a brilliant colorist and an extraordinarily innovative painter. Though Carles trained initially at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, soaking up the more conservative teaching of William Merritt Chase and Thomas Anshutz, he was deeply influenced by the avant-garde art scene in Paris during his first trip there in 1905. In 1907, Carles won the prestigious Cresson Traveling Scholarship, which enabled him to return to Paris for several more years. This experience had a profound impact on Carles as an artist; he was extremely affected by modern French painting, especially the work of Cezanne and Matisse, and by the time Carles returned home to Philadelphia in 1912, he was a confirmed modernist.
This small landscape sketch was probably painted early during Carles's career, and yet, it already reveals his strong interest in abstraction. Indeed, Landscape Abstraction demonstrates both his daring exploration of lyrical color harmonies as well as his interest in two-dimensional surface design. Painted loosely in the spontaneous medium of watercolor, Carles used thin washes and delicate pools of paint to suggest the foreground area and surrounding trees. His color palette is rich and expressive, ranging from pale greens and blues to deep red, yellow, and even purple.
In addition to his remarkable career as an artist, Carles was also an incredibly gifted teacher. He taught at PAFA from 1917 to 1925 and had a very deep impact on a number of his students such as Morris Blackburn, Quita Brodhead, and Jane Piper...

Cherry Blossom No. 13, Original Minimalist Impressionist Nature Still Life Study, 2019
20" x 16" (HxW) Watercolor on Cold Pressed Watercolor Paper
A lovely minimalist composition in green and white, this nature study features two white flowers which have been highlighted with a gray contour to depict the boundaries of their delicate petals. Blue and yellow undertones give variation to the green foliage that surrounds the flowers, entering from the top of the composition as if hanging down from a tree above the viewer's head. The soft colors and simple subject matter give off a delicate, ethereal, and calming feeling that feels like a breath of fresh air.
