  • H.M. Saffer II, "Field of Dreams III", Pointillist Landscape Oil Painting
    By H.M. Saffer II
    Located in Saratoga Springs, NY
    Landscape painting "Field of Dreams III" 24x30 by artist H.M. Saffer II. Painted in the style of pointillism, a series of tiny painted brushstrokes , this colorful oil painting depicts a vivid red and orange sky over a purple field. A path recedes into the background. About the artist: Born July 18, 1942 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, H.M. Saffer II launched his career by exhibiting his art at a public art show at the tender age of six. Upon graduation from Temple University in 1965, he traveled to Paris, France to enroll in graduate economics courses. Concurrently, HM's path took a different twist, as he soon leveraged his musical talent performing with notable French stars Hugues Aufray, Jacques Brel, Charles Aznavour, and many others. He was later hired by Barclay Records as a producer, and had several hit records in 1968 and 1969. During this period, he was also the chef / owner of two restaurants in Paris, and later a third located in Ibiza, Spain. Remarkably, as engaged as he was, HM never stopped painting and exhibiting his works. Several of his shows - sponsored by his restaurants and music associates - "sold out" and were favorably written up by the press. Before returning to the United States in 1970, he completed selected studies at L'Ecole Des Beaux Arts and exhibited in Paris and Brussels, Belgium. HM continued on with his music career in the United States at Warner Brothers Productions where he co-wrote the international hit song, "Look What They Done To My Song, Ma", recorded by Ray Charles, Melanie and other performers. While at Warner he painted a forty foot mural in their Madison Ave., NY headquarters and exhibited his works in the firm's lobby. In 1972 HM was hired by the dynamic songwriter/producer Bob Crewe as Senior Vice President for the Crewe Group of companies where he worked with the industry's top names including Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, Vicki Carr, and Oliver. Later that year, he established HMS Two Music Ltd. and spent his time writing and producing music for films, commercials, recordings and Broadway productions. HM's work in the commercial field is familiar to us all with creations for Pepsi, Mountain Dew...

    By H.M. Saffer II
    Located in Saratoga Springs, NY
    Colorful landscape painting "Water Images IV" 30x40 by artist H.M. Saffer II. Painted in the style of pointillism- a series of tiny painted brushstrokes, this oil landscape depicts a pathway lit by the setting sun. Sun rays of orange glow through a receding tree-line. Dramatic purple shadows are cast from the trees upon the deep orange pathway. A deep blue stream flows on the left side of the painting, alongside a grassy field of red and yellow poppies.
