About the Item

American b. 1939 Renowned Impressionist painter Shirley Cean Youngs is a native New Yorker who now lives on a family compound in Connecticut surrounded by nature and those she loves. There among the wildlife, gardens, and river, she paints in the Impressionist style that has been a long tradition in the Connecticut community of artists. She has taught art to gifted children and seniors, as well as to matriculated art students at Connecticut’s leading institutions, in precious hours tucked between paintings. Her works are in the collections of Americans and Europeans abroad. She has had many “one woman” and juried exhibitions, both nationally and internationally. The artist is recognized as one of the leading living artists by Who’s Who in American Women, and among those in national and international art circles. Invitations to exhibit her paintings have taken her work to such places as Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Canada. Her works hang in the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington D.C., the collection of H.R.H. Prince Charles of England and numerous other celebrity, corporate, and private collections. Her work is published in Rockport Publishers’ editions of The Best of Oil Painting and Portrait Inspirations, and has been featured on magazine and book covers, as well as in numerous articles in books and newspapers. During years of perseverance, determination, and commitment to her work, Youngs felt she was “beckoned” to the easel by her sensitivity to the moods of nature, a subtle gesture, gentle sound, or feelings of light. Others have described her work as “visual poetry”.

"Flowers, New Hope"
By Joseph Barrett
Located in Lambertville, NJ
Illustrated in "Joseph Barrett, The Prime Years 1970s - 1990s", pg. 56, plate #065. Jim’s of Lambertville is proud to offer this artwork by: Joseph Barrett (1936 – ) Joseph Barrett was born in Midland, North Carolina, in 1936 and studied at the Massachusetts College of Art in Boston and at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. Barrett, now of Lahaska, Pennsylvania, has been painting his entire adult life. His favorite subjects include the landscape surrounding New Hope and many local landmarks often encompassing figures into his compositions. Barrett utilizes a heavy impasto and his palette bears similarities to that of Fern Coppedge and George Sotter. Barrett’s paintings are always found in unique and somewhat charming handmade frames designed by the artist and finished in metal leaf. A living contemporary of the no longer living “New Hope School” impressionist painters, Joseph Barrett resides outside of New Hope above his old-fashioned antique shop and studio. Entering Barrett’s shop is like taking a step back in time. Inside this cluttered and dusty haven of treasures from the past, is a studio spanning only four by eight feet. This little studio, containing cans of old brushes...
