Bold San Francisco Abstracted Still Life Composition in Oil on Board Bold still life composition by Frank Koci (Czech-American, 1904-1983). A table is set with a jug of wine and a bowl of fruit and a landscape in the background. It is composed of several layers of paint, with bold outlines. In some areas, paint has been scraped away to create additional texture. In broad terms, you can describe Koci’s paintings as a series of “people-scapes,” wherein people are shown having relationships (some fleeting, some enduring) with fellow humans. A better term is probably “preludes” — wherein each painting sets the stage for something momentous that will occur in the very next frame. In the best Kocis, the tension is palpable. Signed in the lower right corner "Koci". Presented in a wood frame. Board size: 13"H x 30"W x .5"D Born in 1904 in Pilsen Czechoslovakia to a widowed mother. Koci grew up in poverty. Leaving Pilsen at 17 he was already too sophisticated about arts and literature, drama, and polished...

"Lovely Gal" is a charming oil on board painting by Martin Saldaña (1874-1965), a self-taught outsider artist known for his vibrant, whimsical depictions of childhood memories and rural life. This semi-abstract figurative work features a colorful palette of bold hues, with flowers and birds that reflect Saldaña's deep connection to nature and his Mexican heritage. The painting is presented in a custom frame with outer dimensions of 30 ¾ x 25 ⅜ x 1 ⅝ inches, and the image size is 24 ½ x 19 ⅛ inches. About the Artist: Martin Saldaña was born in 1874 at Rancho Neuvo, Mexico, and led a modest life, working as a cook at Denver's iconic Brown Palace Hotel. At the age of 76, Saldaña began attending children’s art classes at the Denver Art Museum, sparking a late-blooming artistic career. Over the next 15 years, he vividly captured memories of his childhood in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, focusing on ranch life, landscapes, and his love for animals. Saldaña's work is noted for its bold, geometric figures and vibrant colors, often evoking the influence of Mexican tapestries. His paintings are considered to be naïve and folk art, characterized by their simple, direct, and highly personal style. Saldaña's prolific output—creating a new painting nearly every three days—resulted in an impressive collection of artworks that continue to be celebrated today. Saldaña’s endearing style continues to captivate art enthusiasts, offering a glimpse into a rich, nostalgic world filled with vibrant colors and heartfelt simplicity. ©David Cook Galleries...
