Jon Carsman
Cannas 1978 Signed Limited Edition Screen Print on Arches

1978

About the Item

Jon Carsman Cannas - 1978 Print - Silkscreen, on Arches archival paper   34½" x 24" in Edition: Signed in pencil, titled and marked 157/175 "Jon Carsman did for suburban and hometown views what Edward Hopper did for cities, except Carsman exchewed a human presence." Annette Dixon, curator of the University of Michigan Museum. Jon Carsman found the source of his inspiration in the play of color and light reflected across the framed houses, streets and country sides of small town America. His paintings synthesize realism and fantasy. Color is an important factor in Carsman's work. His pallet is vibrant and intense. Carsman isolates strong areas of color in juxtaposition with dark outline; the colors become crystallized motifs with a sparkling jewel-like quality. Color is the greatest emotional factor in painting and Carsman uses this device very successfully. Carsman paints broad areas of vivid high-key tones with a surprising effect that creates a dynamic interplay of light and shadow.

"Morning By The Bay" Colorful Harbor Street Scene In Old San Juan Serigraph
By Tom Swimm
Located in Laguna Beach, CA
"Morning By The Bay" features a colorful street scene leading to the sparkling Caribbean sea, and is a quintessential example of Tom Swimm's enhanced realism. This colorful hand pulled 90 color serigraph exhibits all of the bold colors and strong composition that Swimm is known for. It is hand signed by the artist in an edition of 240 including Artist Proofs. The serigraph features hand torn deckled edges so that the artwork can be floated in a frame with no margins (the artist signs in oil on the image.) Born and raised on the East Coast, he had a successful career as an advertising commercial artist in New York, then resettled in southern California with his wife and son in 1982. Inspired by the light and landscape of the West Coast, he renewed his passion for painting and was accepted for his first exhibition in the Festival Of Arts in Laguna Beach, California in 1988. His paintings soon became recognizable for their exceptional use of light and color -- a style that he continues to develop with each new work. To quote the artist: “Light is the most important aspect of my work, offering the ultimate challenge and reward. To capture its elusive qualities on canvas offers great personal satisfaction, and it’s what I thrive on artistically.” To seek inspiration, the artist travels extensively, working from photos and sketches that he uses for reference, then creates his original oils...
