'Still Life of Onions', California, Post Impressionist Oil, Santa Monica College

Circa 1995

About the Item

Signed lower right, 'Goetz' for Jack Goetz (American, born 1919) and painted circa 1995. Additionally signed, verso, and titled, 'Onions!' A bright and breezy study of white onions in a blue glass bowl contrasted against a Regency-striped material of red, yellow and green against a cream background. Goetz has painted and exhibited with success for many years and continues to paint at the age of 104. Speaking of himself, the artist says: "I studied arts and languages at Santa Monica College, taking classes in oil and watercolor painting, sculpture, ceramics, art history and music. At the same time, I studied with master painter Sergei Bongart. Because he taught many people in the movie business, I had fun meeting and painting with people like Gene Hackman and Ralph Bellamy. Since moving to Lake Wildwood, I’ve taken painting classes with master painters like Robert B. Schultz, Ted Goerschner, and Jerry Fresia."
