Bo Bartlett is an American realist painter with a modern vision. With reference to Norman Rockwell and Andrew Wyeth, Bartlett's large-scale oil paintings celebrate the underlying epic nature of the commonplace and the personal history of the extraordinary. Using his friends and family as a cast of characters, Bartlett's narrative works are set around his childhood home in Georgia and his island home in Maine. Whether warm, melancholic or jubilant, Bartlett's masterful paintings represent a deeper, mythical concept of the archetypal, universal home. Jeffrey Abrams elaborates, “Bartlett paints strange, beautiful, disquieting scenes. They are delicate and austere. They are also humorous and bizarre. And nearly all of his new works seem to inhabit a shared world: a sort of nameless, indistinguishable, dreamscape America.”
Bo Bartlett (b. 1955, Columbus, GA) lives and works in Columbus, GA and Wheaton Island, ME.
