1979

About the Item

James Havard is considered one of the "pioneers of the abstract illusionism movement" One of James Havard's homes and studio's was on the island of Tortola and this work from 1979 evokes the feel of the aqua blue waters and the reference of Salt Island in the painting refers to the salty feel of the ocean waters. In the 1970's Havard was the principle artist that started working in an abstract style that included gestural brush strokes and paint squeezed directly from the tube to create beautiful surface textures in his paintings. He then painted shadows to certain areas of paint to create the 3d illusion of depth to his paintings. This created the "Abstract Illusion" movement of the 1970's. Havard had many museum exhibitions and his paintings were sort after and exhibited at galleries around the world. Havard along with other artists like, Michael Gallagher, George Green, Jack Lembeck, Joe Doyle and Ceravolo were known as the "Abstract Illusionists". James Havard passed away in 2020 and left many beautiful works to be admired. We have included in this listing, a photo of James Havard and Ceravolo taken at Havard's final exhibition at The Alan Stone Gallery in New York City. The painting measures 30x20". The framed art measures approx. 37x27"
