Kenneth Nunamaker (1890 - 1957)
Kenneth R. Nunamaker was born in Akron, Ohio in 1890. He received his official training in the art department of the Akron Engraving Company. He painted in his spare time, largely learning his craft through experimentation and the observation of nature, translating the landscape around him onto his canvases.
Nunamaker moved to the Philadelphia area in 1918, living first in Glenside. He took a job at the Hoedt Studios, a commercial art firm in Philadelphia, where he was soon promoted to art director. By this time, Nunamaker was already an extremely competent landscape painter. Continuing to paint as often as possible, he began making frequent trips to New Hope while also starting to participate in exhibitions at the Pennsylvania Academy. In 1923, Nunamaker with his family moved to Center Bridge, Pennsylvania. There, he developed a close association with members of the New Hope Art Colony. Nunamaker was strongly influenced by the impressionist paintings by Edward Redfield, particularly those of Center Bridge, who subsequently took the young artist “under his wing”. With Redfield as an unofficial instructor, Nunamaker became acquainted with Daniel Garber and other artists who were living and working around the New Hope Art Colony.
He left Hoedt Studios in 1945 and with his son, Alfred, opened their own freelance commercial art studio in the Beury Building in Philadelphia.
Kenneth Nunamaker painted atmospheric impressionist landscapes. His technique employed a thickly layered impasto with a soft but rich well blended palette. His earlier work mostly resembles that of his mentor, Edward Redfield, with thick vigorous brushwork. His later work relates more to Garber, using much lighter application of paint and with more attention to detail.
Throughout his career, he exhibited extensively in numerous solo and group exhibitions. Nunamaker’s work was included in exhibitions at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Philadelphia Sketch Club, the Woodmere Art Museum, the Peabody Institute, the Phillips Mill Art Association, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the International Gallery in Venice, the National Academy of Design, and the Salmagundi Club.

- I Came to Where the Lone Pilgrim Lay, River Landscape Oil on Canvas, Western ArtBy Michael Ome UntiedtLocated in Whitefish, MTI Came to Where the Lone Pilgrim Lay by Michael Ome Untiedt Oil on Canvas, 36" x 48", 43" x 55" (framed), hanging hardware included. From the artist: "In Memory of Tom Horn: This is another of my feeble attempts to break down, to rage against the tyranny of time. I have fought this battle for a half century, yet my limbs grow slower, my hair more moon-bleached. I ponder as I apply brush strokes to the canvas, what thoughts pass through the viewer of this work a hundred years hence, two hundred years later? Will they know what I carry in my heart today? Am I on a great mandala of life, and will I return one day to this same experience, or am I adrift on a great "river" flowing endlessly through the Cosmos, heeding shoal water and seeking shoreline that is forever changing? A dear friend passed this week from the plague scourging our fair land. When and where will I hear his sweet self deprecating laughter again?" Born and raised in rural southeastern Colorado, Michael Ome Untiedt maintains a studio in Denver. Traveling extensively, he is known as a painter of the world who sees with a westerner’s eye. Through the color, brush strokes, and symbolic subject matter of his paintings, he attempts to examine the human predicament and its connections to the landscape and history of the American West. He is driven to portray twenty-first-century psychology on a nineteenth-century saddle! Untiedt has participated in numerous shows including the Western Masters Art Show and Sale, Settler’s West Miniatures Show and Art of the American West...Category
