It has been produced by layering color directly on the glass until opaque, and then framing completed painting, which is on the back of the glass, so that it is visible through the glass. The media is a permanent enamel which will not fade or deteriorate in time and the painting itself is prtected by a layer of foam so that it is not scratched or damaged from the back. The painting of this type produced by Bates have received several awards and been widely and well received.

    By David Fleming
    Located in Soquel, CA
    "Drawbridge", an expressive contemporary abstracted landscape painting by David Fleming (American, 20th Century).

  • Etching - Morning Ride (hand-painted etching) - new
    By Cuca Romley
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    A beautiful handcolored etching of a morning ride in Upstate New York. Gallery curates a series of original etchings from respected European artist and ex-New Yorker, Cuca Romley. Ms Romley is in her eighties, and currently based in Spain after spending decades in New York City. She was trained at The École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts (ENSBA), a distinguished National School of Fine Arts in Paris, France. The artist won several noted awards for her art in her native Spain, and in Paris, France. She worked as an artist and also had a career in advertising, illustration and interior design, in Spain, France and New York. As an artist, she has had solo and group exhibitions first Paris, France, Monaco, Japan, Spain and the US. ETCHINGS Cuca Romley’s etchings of both famous and little places around the world are depicted with a remarkable attention to detail, a style that belies her sophisticated sense of line and color. These etchings capture a bygone era of a city in flux, and a snap shot of a classic image of a place. Each plate is etched with patience and a thoroughness reminiscence of the earlier days of engraving, in exquisite and fine detail. Romley creates her intricate design on the etching ground that covers the copper plate. After the acid has etched the lines into the copper plate she engraves the details into the plate with a buril until the image is completed. For each individual print a master printer must ink the plate and wipe the surface clean. The plate is placed on the bed of the press and the previously wet French Arches paper 100% cotton covering the plate to pass through the press, and that completes the printing process. After the printing ink has dried for a couple of days, the etching is ready for the hand coloring by the artist. There are often more than 30 colors in one of Romley’s images. Each print can take up to 6 hours to color; these colors impart a subtle transparent effect that compliments the delicacy of the line. Every etching in the limited edition is then signed and numbered in pencil by the artist. On CMF Fabiano paper. Size specified is the size of the copper plate, I.e. the image size. Exhibition (selection) 1933 Born in Madrid, SPAIN (age 81) 1952-55 Fashion Illustrator, SPAIN Prize - Galerias Preciado , Sindicato Nacional Textil, Madrid, SPAIN 2nd Prize - Salon Nacional de Dibujos de Alta Costura...
