About the Item
Artist Comments
A relaxing coastal seascape stretches out a panoramic view in artist Joe Giuffrida's work. He captures a sense of space, distance, and the grandeur of the cliffside as it descends to the beach below. Joe minimizes the elements, such as the lighthouse, the people, the sailboat, and the freighter, to highlight the monumental mountain bluff. The subdued neutral hues keep the focus on the vast depth.
About the Artist
Artist Joe Giuffrida paints impressionist landscapes frequently balanced with architectural arrangements. His artistic vision diverges from traditional styles depending on the subject at hand. "My creative energy is best developed through being on-site, observing a location, and getting the feel of the environment," says Joe. An expression of what is felt but not necessarily seen flourishes in his work, pushing the limits of color and value beyond what is there. Joe sought mentorship through workshops and college classes, then supplemented his learning by reading books on art techniques. He developed a firm belief in his craft being good through the perception of feeling rather than visuals. Emotional connections hold a crucial part of his creative process, challenging himself to be able to convey his responses while leaving room for the viewer's interpretation. He works in two studios, one for subtle watercolor painting and the other for bold and heavy acrylics and oils - systemized by organized clutter. His work has been featured in American and European publications and displayed in England, Germany, France, and the United States. Outside of painting, he channels his prowess as a musician, spending considerable time learning new guitar music. American culture, history, and biography also occupy his evenings when he has time to spare.

- Summer Stream, Original PaintingBy Chris WagnerLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
One of my favorite subjects to paint is a wooded landscape, being surrounded by trees and the colors and shadows they create. This is one of those scenes, accented by a mountain stream.About the Artist
Chris Wagner uses color to express his unique vision of the people and places around him. He currently lives in North Carolina and enjoys keeping up with artists from around the world through Facebook. In his work, he tries to focus on subjects that contrast lights and darks. He recently found inspiration in the way a strong back light created amazing shapes and shadows.Words that describe this painting: landscape, river, impressionism, woods, trees, impressionism, nature, representational, watercolor painting, green

- Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse, Original PaintingBy Judy MuddLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Part of artist Judy Mudd's marine collection, her inspiration comes from numerous trips to the coast. Judy captures the brilliant sunset as it colors the sky above a lighthouse. "I was intrigued by the sweeping clouds and the backlighting from the sun that reflected on the water," says Judy. As such, she felt it would create a visually striking painting.About the Artist
For Judy Mudd, creating a work of art means much more than simply reproducing something she sees. “It is more than painting a subject, it is expressing a feeling,” she explains. Judy develops her paintings with thorough reconnaissance work. She goes out on photo shoots in a variety of atmospheric conditions, sketches outdoors, takes notes, and completes color and value studies. From there, back in the studio, she lets the paintbrush guide her. Outside of painting, Judy also leads watercolor workshops and runs a real estate business with her husband.Words that describe this painting: paper, impressionism, marine, lighthouse, ocean, Thomas Point...
