Biography
Paul Schumann 1876-1946
Paul R. Schumann
Paul Richard Schumann (December 13, 1876 – April 29, 1946) was a Texas impressionist seascape painter who has been called the Gulf Coast counterpart of Winslow Homer.
Education and personal life
Paul R. Schumann was born in Reichersdorf in the German state of Saxony in 1876, one of four children of Albert F. Schumann and Mina Clara Zincke. Only he and his brother Albert Otto survived infancy. The family emigrated to the United States in 1879 and settled in Galveston, Texas, where he lived until his death. Schumann evinced an early interest in art and received encouragement from the superintendent of the Galveston Public Schools. He studied painting with local painter Julius Stockfleth before turning to plein air painting. Schumann married Carolina Adela Bergmann from Fredericksburg, Texas, in 1903 and later credited her as his inspiration. They had three children: Paul August, Clara Adela, and Robert Edward. Carolina died in 1937. He painted many paintings in and around Fredericksburg as well as New Mexico.
Painting career
Schumann started out as a portrait and landscape painter but became best known for his later seascapes and harbor scenes. Writers have speculated that his preference for marine subjects was influenced by a childhood experience of falling into the mill race at his father's sawmill or by his cross-ocean journey at the age of three. One critic wrote that he "catches with unfailing dexterity the kinship of the sea with the sky and the land–the storm clouds, the pouty, sulky thunderheads, or the washed sky after an April shower."Schumann built model ships for use as models for his seascapes, which sometimes featured boats and ships ranging from fishing vessels to three-masted schooners. During the 1910s, Schumann traveled extensively around the United States, painting in New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, California, Illinois, and along the southeastern Atlantic Coast. His favorite site remained the Texas Gulf Coast, however, for its tropical colors and changeable skyscapes, and he became known as a leading interpreter of "typical Texas skies, as well as the deeper blues of the South Atlantic, and the quiet waters of the Pacific Coast."Schumann belonged to a number of art associations, including the Art Association of New Orleans, Galveston Art League, Society of Independent Artists, Society of Texas Artists, Southern States Art League, and Texas Fine Arts Association. Schumann exhibited his work frequently and over the course of his career won many exhibition awards, prizes, and medals. His work is held in the collections of a number of museums and institutions, including the Rosenberg Library (Galveston, Texas), Fort Worth Art Museum (Texas), the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum (Texas), and Southwest Texas State University. Schumann died of pancreatic cancer in 1946.
Painting techniques
Painting in open air
Schumann began as a realist and evolved into an impressionist, likewise moving from brush to palette knife as his primary tool. Of his painting The Storm, he noted that he began with a brush and later used his fingers. His heavy impasto has been likened to that of Wayne Thiebaud. Schumann's palette relied heavily on the primary colors, and he worked mainly in oils but also made watercolor, pen-and-ink, and crayola studies. He frequently worked outdoors, becoming a familiar figure to local fishermen, who would sometimes shift their boats around to help out his compositions. In part because of an impressionist technique that did not allow for a great deal of overpainting, Schumann was a prolific artist who could turn out up to three canvases a day. He is credited with some 1500 paintings in 25 years and was able to support his family by his painting and private teaching even during the Depression years. As a teacher, Schumann was said to require his students to make drawings for five years before he would allow them to work with color.
Critical reception
Critics have praised Schumann for the atmospheric intensity and vigor of his seascapes. One critic wrote that "in American art Mr. Schumann probably has no peer at capturing in oil dancing waters or a sailing ship on a glassy sea."The San Antonio Express admired his "clearness of colors, the warm tones of the afternoon reflected sunlight and lovely transparency in the wet beach sand, all aglow from the reflections of the June skies and their billowy sunlit clouds." A French critic termed his work "bold, direct and free" and called Schumann himself "a poet of exquisite sensibility." An American critic concluded that Schumann was "doing for the Texas Gulf shores what Winslow Homer did for the Coast of Maine," arguing that if he had been painting "along the New England Coast instead of the Gulf of Mexico, his marines would have been known over all the world."

Paul Schumann was born near Leipzig Saxony, in the German Empire. He and his family immigrated to the United States about 1879. After a brief stay in Indianola, the family moved to Galveston in 1881. He received instruction from Julius Stockfleth. According to a newspaper article, Schumann spent time in New York and the East, studying and painting--confirmed by a number of surviving sketches of New York scenes. His Galveston studio was destroyed by the hurricane in 1900. Schumann rebuilt his studio on that site, teaching privately, and became a very productive painter, at times, accomplishing three paintings a day, surrounded by his collection of ship models and statuary. He also was a plein-air artist, best known for marine and harbor scenes in Galveston. He also produced a number of plein-air works in Louisiana, the Texas Hill Country, New Mexico, Arizona, California and the East Coast. The medium he used was oil, crayon, pencil, and pen and ink--using the palette knife extensively in oil. Paul Schumann died in Galveston.
Had [Schumann] been an artist along the East Coast instead of the Gulf of Mexico, he would have been known all over the world. He is doing for the Gulf Coast what Winslow Homer did for Maine.
Biography from Richard Plumley
Born in Germany, Paul Richard Schumann moved to Galveston, Texas around 1882. He received early encouragement in art while in school in Galveston. Later he began his studies of art from Galveston artist and marine painter Julius Stockfleth (1857-1935).
Schumann is known as an interpreter of the true Texas Gulf Coast. Painting in oils, watercolors and crayon, his subjects are mostly of Galvestonians on their fishing boats and sailing vessels in nearby bays and docks, and colorful figures along the beach, and occasionally landscapes of the Texas Hill Country. One well-known landscape painting is of Enchanted Rock near Fredericksburg, Texas. He later painted mostly in palette knife in the impressionist style.
Awards include: First & second prizes on marines at the Texas Cotton Palace, Waco and West Texas Fair in San Angelo. He won the "Texas Fine Arts Prize" at the Southern States Art League for the best Texas subject, titled "Mosquito Fleet". Life membership prize at the Springfield, Illinois Art Association exhibit and purchase prize at Victoria, Texas competition for a landscape. He also won prizes with his paintings titled "Drying Sails" & "Silver Sprays".
Schumann was a member of the Southern States Art League; Galveston Art League; Texas Fine Arts Association; New Orleans Art Association & the Springfield, Ill. Art Association.

- "OCTOBER SNOWS" G. HARVEY WESTERN GERALD JONES SNOW SCENE 22 X 19 FRAMEDBy G. HarveyLocated in San Antonio, TXG. Harvey (Gerald Harvey Jones) (1933-2017) San Antonio, Austin, and Fredericksburg Artist Image Size: 12 x 9 Frame Size: 22 x 19 Medium: Oil "October Snows" G. Harvey, known for paintings closely linked in mood and subject matter to Edouard Cortes [1882-1962], G Harvey creates romanticized street scenes of turn of the century towns in America. Rain slick streets reflect urban lights, and the weather is obviously cold. He grew up in the rugged hills north of San Antonio, Texas from where herds of longhorn cattle were once driven up dusty trails to the Kansas railheads. His grandfather was a trail boss at 18 and helped create an American legend for his grandson. So, the American West is not only the artist's inspiration but his birthright. Harvey's early interest in sketching and drawing slowly evolved into a passion for painting in oils. After graduating cum laude from North Texas State University, Harvey took a position with the University of Texas in Austin, but he soon realized that weekends and nights at the easel did not satisfy his love of painting. He abandoned the security of a full-time job in 1963 and threw his total energy into a fine art career. Harvey paints the spirit of America from its western hills and prairies to the commerce of its great cities. His original paintings and bronze sculptures are in the collections of major corporations, prestigious museums, the United States government, American presidents, governors, foreign leader and captains of industry. The Smithsonian Institution chose Harvey to paint The Smithsonian Dream, commemorating its 150th Anniversary. The Christmas Pageant of Peace commissioned Harvey to create a painting celebrating this national event. He has been the recipient of innumerable awards and the subject of three books. Today, G. Harvey lives in Fredericksburg, Texas, with his wife Pat in a 150-year-old stone home built by German settlers. His studio and residence are nestled within the Historic District of Fredericksburg. It is obligation of fine artists to present us with more than pretty pictures. They must also make us feel. Among the western painters of today, there is none more capable of accomplishing this than G. Harvey. In his paintings, the viewer into only sees the physical elements of his subject, but also senses the mood that surrounds them. It is a remarkable aspect of fine art, which few artists are able to master. Gerald Harvey Jones was born in San Antonio, Texas, in 1933. His grandfather was a cowboy during the trail-driving era when legends grew up along the dusty trails north from Texas. Family stories of wild cattle and tough men were absorbed by a wide-eyed boy and became the genesis of G. Harvey's art. A graduate in fine arts at North Texas State University, Harvey taught full-time and painted nights and weekends for several years. It was through painting that he found his greatest satisfaction, and his native central Texas hill country provided the inspiration for most of his earliest work. With the development of his talent and the growth of his following, Harvey began to expand his artistic horizons. He left teaching and concentrated on a career in fine art. He sought the essence that is Texas and found it not only along the banks of the Guadalupe, but in cow camps west of the Pecos, and in the shadows of tall buildings in big Texas cities. The streets of Dallas once echoed with the sound of horse's hooves and the jingle of spurs. Historic photographs reveal what it looked like, but only an artist like Harvey can enable a viewer to experience the mood and flavor or the time. Contemporary west art has too often centered on the literal representations from its roots in illustrations. Artists like G. Harvey take us a step further, to the subjective impressions that are unique to each great talent, and which constitutes something special and basic to fine art expression. Harvey is a soft-spoken and unassuming man who cares deeply about what he paints without becoming maudlin or melodramatic. We sense there is more in each Harvey painting than just that which is confined to the canvas. Resources include: The American West: Legendary Artists of the Frontier, Dr. Rick Stewart, Hawthorne Publishing Company, 1986 Artist G. Harvey grew up in the rugged hills north of San Antonio, Texas from where herds of longhorn cattle were once driven up dusty trails to the Kansas railheads. His grandfather was a trail boss at 18 and helped create an American legend. So, the American West is not only the artist's inspiration but his birthright. Harvey's early interest in sketching and drawing slowly evolved into a passion for painting in oils. After graduation cum laude from North Texas State University, Harvey took a position with the University of Texas in Austin, but he soon realized that weekends and nights at the easel did not satisfy his love of painting. He abandoned the security of a full-time job in 1963 and threw his total energy into a fine art career. Two years as a struggling artist followed, but 1965 brought acclaim for the artist's first prestigious show, The Grand National exhibition in New York, and the American Artists' Professional League presented him with their New Master's Award. President Lyndon Johnson discovered his fellow Texan's talent, became a Harvey collector and introduced John Connally to the artist's work. Connally was enthusiastic about Harvey's art, and, on one occasion, he presented a G. Harvey original to each governor of Mexico's four northern states. Harvey paints the spirit of America from its western hills and prairies to the commerce of its great cities. His original paintings and bronze sculptures are in the collections of major corporations, prestigious museums, the United States government, American presidents, governors, foreign leader and captains of industry. The Smithsonian Institution chose Harvey to paint The Smithsonian Dream commemorating its 150th Anniversary. The Christmas Pageant of Peace commissioned Harvey to create a painting celebrating this national event. He has been the recipient of innumerable awards and the subject of three books. Through his art, our history lives. Today, G. Harvey lives in Fredericksburg, Texas, with his wife Pat in a 150-year-old stone home built by German settlers. His studio and residence are nestled within the Historic District of Fredericksburg. Gerald Harvey Jones, better known as G. Harvey, grew up in the Texas Hill Country listening to his father and grandfather tell stories about ranch life, frontier days in Texas, and driving cattle across the Red River. Early in his career, he began to draw inspiration from that collective memory for paintings that would eventually earn him the reputation as one of America's most recognized and successful artists. His art is rooted in the scenic beauty of the land he grew up in and the staunch independence of the people who live there. He says, "My paintings have never been literal representations. They are part first-hand experience, and part dreams generated by those early stories I heard. They are a product of every place I have been, everything I have ever seen and heard." G. Harvey graduated from North Texas State University. He taught in Austin, but continued to study art in his spare time, eventually devoting full time to his painting. The year 1965 was a turning point when he won the prestigious New Masters Award in the American Artist Professional League Grand National Exhibition in New York. It is often said that in viewing a work of art, one is granted a unique look into the thoughts and expressions of values that give meaning to the artist work. Nowhere does this ring truer than the art of G. Harvey. Though Harvey has had nearly two decades of sell-out shows, an outstanding honor came with a series of one-man shows in Washington, D.C. in 1991. The first was at the National Archives featuring his paintings of the Civil War era, then a selection of paintings of notable Washington landmarks was exhibited at the Treasury Department, culminating in a one-man show of 35 paintings at the Smithsonian Institution during their exhibition of The All-American Horse. His work was featured in Gilcrease Museum exhibitions from 1992-1997. In 1987 his alma matter...Category

Soon after moving home to Texas, she began painting seriously. She has studied with Ian Roberts, Kevin Macpherson, Jill Carver, Lori Putnam, and (of course!) Chuck Mauldin. Barbara’s work has been accepted in several art events, such as the Women Artists of the West National Show, Contemporary Masters Invitational Art Show in Fredericksburg, the Mountain Oyster Club Art Show, the Plein Air Artists Colorado National Juried Art Exhibition, The Museum of Western Art (Kerrville, TX) “The Party” Art Exhibition and Sale, and others. Her paintings are characterized by color. “I like to emphasize the color that I see, as a creative and emotional response to the landscape.” She works with a limited palette, using a small number of pigments to mix colors, which results in beautiful color harmony. Barbara has focused her attention on the Texas landscape, especially on prickly pear cactus. Cactus is fun to paint. It has a multitude of interesting colors, which are an expression of the harshness of the environment and the amount of direct sun. In spring the colors are lighter and more mellow, and the flowers of late spring are a vibrant yellow and rose, sometimes orange. She enjoys plein air work, accepting the challenges of color, design, and the environment (critters and weather). Texas abounds with variety and inspiration; there is always another painting just around the corner! Her interest in art had always been a part of the fabric of her life. She works mainly in oil, and she also dabbles in pastels, watercolor, church banner...Category

A finely painted and atmospheric work which clearly shows the influence of Methuen's one time teacher Walter Sickert. Signed on the reverse and presented in a beautiful gilt frame.
