Victor Di Gesu Still-life Drawings and Watercolors

American

Victor di Gesu first attended the Chouinard Art School before moving to Paris, where he studied with André Lhote at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière. He subsequently attended the Escuela de Bellas Artes in Barcelona before furthering his studies in Italy. Returning to California, he worked with a variety of artists, including F. Tolles Chamberlain and Maynard Jepson. An intuitive colorist, Di Gesu’s classical training and scientific research into color theory helped him create vivid yet harmonious works which, while reminiscent of Matisse and Gauguin, retained a verve and spontaneity that was uniquely his own. A prolific artist, Di Gesu was the recipient of numerous medals and juried awards, both in the United States and France. He was the winner of the Prix Othon Friesz Prize. He exhibited widely and with success, including at the Louvre Museum and the Exposition des Artistes Etrangeres in Paris, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

"The sunflowers of Provence"
Located in VÉNISSIEUX, FR
Dear art lover, I enjoy working on floral compositions. This one was inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's sunflowers. A palette knife was used to obtain the texture on the painted canvas. Please read the details below 👇: Title: "The sunflowers of Provence" Style: impressionism, post-impressionism Medium: oil painting on a heavyweight professional paper Fabriano ( 300 gr) I hope this artwork will fill up your space with vibrant rich colors. It is sold without frame. Hanging fixture will be included so you can hang it on the wall. If you don't want to hang it on the wall, you can display it on the console table, buffet , sideboard, shelf, fireplace etc.. My kind advice: you can choose another floral painting from my gallery to create one singular art piece ( a diptych or a triptych). The choice to sell my art unframed is to give my customer an opportunity to pick a frame to his/her taste, space and interior. This is a unique, one of a kind original oil painting. It is signed on the front and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. The painting will be carefully packed in cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap and sent out to you as soon as possible. Please, give me a couple of days to organize a shipping from...
