California Contemporary Art Marti Somers Figurative Abstract Surrealism Painting
Located in Surfside, FL
Marti Somers
Surrealist dream imagery with fish
24 X 24 inches
A California artist, Somers received her BFA at the University of Hawaii. She returned to California
and worked as a graphic designer at Stanford University and was a principal at Artefact Design in
Palo Alto. But ultimately turned to painting. She opened Studio Believe in San Carlos and co-founded Somersault Studios, a non-profit publishing venture to benefit the arts of Northern California.
Somers’ sensibility is both poetic and suggestive. Her scrapbook-like merger of natural images (both painted and collage) and writing, rendered in tactile, fragrant wax-based encaustic paint, is seductive and convincing. Rich compilations of vintage images, words, colors, and textures. Flowers, trees, and leaves share the space in each picture with animals, fragments of patterned paper, layers of thin oil paint over thick, glazes that partially obscure one layer and provide a new layer to work with. Stylized flowers, butterflies and birds appear prominently within Somers’ heavily textured, ‘antiqued’ bands of color and pattern. Robert Rauschenberg meets Odilon Redon in her assemblage juxtapositions of dreamy words and images. She has exhibited her work at Caldwell Snyder...

By Joseph Maresca
Located in Surfside, FL
Joseph Maresca (American, b. 1946).
Still life rendering on wood mounted tiles.
Flowers, Plant and fruits.
Green X Ray
Oil and wax encaustic on tile
Gallery label and hanging wire at back.
Dimensions:
Height: 12 inches / 30.48 cm
Width: 12 inches / 30.48 cm
This one is not signed but its companion piece is hand signed and dated in black pigment verso.
I am selling them individually but they make a lovely pair.
Joseph Maresca was born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1946, and currently resides in Rhinecliff, Rhinebeck, NY. He received his BFA in industrial design from Pratt Institute, and a master’s degree in arts education from New York University. His paintings and drawings have been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums, including the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, the Katonah Museum of Art, and even the White House—in honor of his design for an official White House tree ornament depicting Vanderbilt Mansion. Academically, Maresca has taught as an adjunct professor at New York University and at City University of New York, and has authored a book—WPA Buildings: Architecture and Art of the New Deal (2017)—about the influence of Works Project Administration architecture. The book examines the social impact on American cities of the imposing government buildings that were funded by the WPA to restore public confidence during the Great Depression. Maresca has been represented by Carrie Haddad Gallery in Hudson, NY and Michelle Rosenfeld Gallery in New York City.
