David Thelen
Out to Pasture, Oil Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist David Thelen often comes across old tractors sitting in fields, waiting to come alive and return to work. In this painting, he depicts the vehicle nestled beneath the shade of a tree, whose red exterior complements the surrounding green leaves. The muted palette adds character to the scene and captures the essence of autumn's nippy atmosphere.


About the Artist
Artist David Thelen was born in Western New York and has been living and working in the Finger Lakes region of the area. His strong family ties to the Catskill area give him a broader perspective on his home. It comes as no surprise that his artwork reflects the daily life and landscapes he sees at home and through his travels across the state. David’s signature approach to the artwork is to paint the canvas solid black, and he paints in the negative space around the darkened areas. He creates his main subject by painting the space around it rather than painting the subject itself. David lives in an old farmhouse that he is slowly renovating one room at a time, so most of his time is shared between painting, renovating, and maintaining.

  • Rainy Night in Paris. Cafe de Consulate, Oil Painting
    By Stanislav Sidorov
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    As part of his cityscape series, artist Stanislav Sidorov exhibits a street in Montmartre, Paris, after the rain. Couples go out on romantic dates outside the busy Le Consulat. Colorful puddles reflect the streetlights and animate the festive scene. Stanislav beautifully details the distinctive European architecture with a palette knife.


    About the Artist
    Stanislav Sidorov saturates his canvas with the expressive color characteristic of the Russian Realist School. While he is a versatile painter, Stanislav prefers painting the small town charms found in architecture and urban environments. He achieves a textured feel by using the pallet knife to apply copious amounts of emotion.

  • Coastal Elder at Cayucos, Oil Painting
    By Elizabeth Garat
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Elizabeth Garat paints an inspiring view of the California coast. She references the piece on scenes from an expedition to the beautiful coastal town of Cayucos, California. The stately tree stands alone in the surrounding field, capturing the viewer's attention. Elizabeth fully offers the tranquility of the quiet view.


    About the Artist
    Growing up in California and Colorado, Elizabeth spent much of her formative years outdoors. “Exposure to nature early on planted the seed of landscape painting in me,” she says. She enjoyed spending time on her grandfather’s sunny sheep ranch and going to the beach with her grandmother. Her grandmother also would bring her to art galleries in Laguna Beach, where she was first introduced to California Impressionism...

  • Bridge Over the River, Oil Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Shela Goodman presents a view of an old swinging bridge over a quiet river. The image plays with the viewer's imagination and challenges them with their personal insight. "The wonder of what is on the other side of the tree and what may be in the distance," says Shela. She skillfully balances the relationship between light and shadow to depict the depth and dimensions of the scene.
