About the Item
Mountain scene with residual snow from above Lake Tahoe by American Realist artist Peter Loftus, who is known for captivating color-rich nature scenes through shadow and light in his oil on canvas paintings that breathe life while reflecting western environments. Loftus is known for his meticulous realist oil paintings featuring ocean-scenes, babbling brooks, mountain ranges and their vistas, as well as figures and people. 'Melting Snow' is beautifully and skillfully painted in natural earth colors and sparkling clear blue with green and shades of snow white. An awe inspiring scene, the painting is pleasure to gaze upon. 44 x 66 inches. Artist signed, titled and dated Verso.
Peter Loftus was born in 1948, in Washington DC. He received a BFA in painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art, in 1971. In 1974, Loftus earned an MFA from the University of Pennsylvania. Drawn by the glorious California light, Loftus moved to Santa Cruz in 1975. He has lived and painted there ever since. Loftus taught at both University of California at Santa Cruz and Cabrillo Community College between 1975, through the present (at UCSC). He taught Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced Drawing, and Painting, in both oil and aqueous media.
During that time, he also sustained a rigorous exhibition schedule, showing regularly on the East and West coasts; in New York at Fischbach Gallery, and San Francisco at William Sawyer Gallery and later Hackett-Freedman Gallery.
