Frédéric Choisel
A photographer, draftsman, cinematographer and painter, Frédéric Choisel is a person of many talents. Colors swirl across his canvases as if they’re in motion — his brushstrokes produce unexpected forms and textural heft. And while he’s best known for his abstract paintings, Choisel has created numerous works in a realist style, drawing frequently on the power of nature to produce serene landscapes as well as enveloping depictions of cloudy skies at dusk.
Born in France, Choisel attended Ecole Supérieure d'Etudes Cinématographiques and went on to the University of Paris VII, where he studied painting and other disciplines such as photography (he was shooting with an old Pentax as a child).
Influenced by the Dutch and Spanish Baroque artistic movements, Choisel credits 19th-century French masters Gustave Courbet and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot as inspirations. Photography and film are important to his painting, too. The artist initially worked as a filmmaker, and is still actively taking on projects as a cinematographer in the documentary realm. Choisel’s work behind the camera — any camera — is integral to his other endeavors. A still image he captures as part of a film project might find a new life as a subject at his easel.
Choisel has shown his work in solo and group exhibitions in France, Belgium and throughout the United States. He lives and works out of Paris, but also has a studio in Long Island City, New York, and is represented by Andra Norris Art Gallery in San Francisco.

- Tributaries Abstract River Oil Cold Wax Original Bonnie Zahn Griffith PaintingLocated in Whitefish, MT"Tributaries" by Bonnie Zahn Griffith, Oil and Cold Wax Medium on Wood Panel, 18" x 18" unframed, 20" x 20" framed in a modern black frame with hanging wire included. Known for her plein air pastels, Bonnie also does some amazing abstract pieces like this one. Bonnie Zahn Griffith is an artist of the western landscape, working in oils and pastels. The rich pigments of pastel and oil allows her to create paintings that have the brilliance and the bold color we see in the landscapes of the western United States, giving her unlimited options to create. These mediums allow Griffith to bring depth and texture, light and mood into her paintings. "My goal is to create work that draw the viewer in to experience and imagine the time of day, the temperature, the sounds, the smells. I want the viewer to experience the work and get lost in it – if only for a moment. My love of the landscape prompts me to paint it. I look for a story to tell when I look at the sagebrush hills, the lush river lands, the wheat fields, the intense greens of spring in rich mountain valleys and the ever changing colors of the desert. My mediums allow me to tell that story with strong color and intensity." As a child of artist parents, Griffith grew up on a ranch near the Missouri Breaks in central Montana. They lived in a remote area and that allowed for a lot of self-directed entertainment - drawing, painting, reading, horseback riding and daily ranch chores. Griffith was a self-proclaimed artist at age 5, getting into her mother's paints and paper. Landscape shapes, texture and color were observed and studied. Famous artists like Russell, O’Keefe and Payne were favorite sources of reference. "I don't remember ever being "bored" because there was always something to do that interested me! Pretty much all of that stuck with me through a career in Radiology Sciences; showing work in galleries and exhibits during that time. In the mid 1990's my art became a full time endeavor." Bonnie Zahn Griffith has studied with instructors such as Robert Moore, Lorenzo Chavez, Ned Mueller and others in the quest to strengthen and develop her style of representational work. Griffith is a signature member and the Secretary for the Pastel Society of the West Coast, a signature member of and past President for the Northwest Pastel Society, member of the Landscape Artists International (juried membership), Plein Air Painters of Idaho and American Impressionist Society. She has served 7 years as the chair for the Meridian (ID) Arts Commission, has served as the Executive Director of WaterWorks Art Museum, Miles City, MT and curator for several galleries. Griffith also teaches workshops in plein air technique, pastel painting techniques (Studio and Plein Air) and multimedia art. She works out of her studio in southwestern Idaho and paints plein air throughout the Rocky Mountain region, the western US...Category
