About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist David Thelen's serene exploration of space and form captures the quiet elegance of a modern setting. With clean lines, soft tones, and a carefully balanced composition, this piece evokes a sense of calm and intentional design.


About the Artist
Artist David Thelen captures the daily life and landscapes he observes in his home and during his travels across the state of New York. When searching for ideas, he embarks on long drives along the scenic back roads of the Finger Lakes region to seek natural scenes and objects with compelling stories to tell. His artwork reflects his bold interpretation of the ever-changing human intervention in nature. David earned his bachelor's degree in Fine Arts in 1994 and has been on a continuous creative journey ever since. He ventured into illustration, woodcarving, and stained glass artistry. David works in his cozy and often cluttered studio, located within the renovated enclosed porch at the back of his house. In his spare time, David delves into drawing and sculpting, exploring its various traditional and digital techniques.

Delta Tree, Oil Painting
By Hadley Northrop
Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
This painting is of a double redwood tree in a small town on the California Delta. I love this Victorian street at night and its combination of giant ancient trees and whimsical decorative lights.


About the Artist
Hadley’s subject matter is inspired by her San Francisco surroundings, particularly the city at night. Her glowing depictions of light sources are reminiscent of a blurred photograph or a bleary-eyed nighttime stroll. Hadley developed her love for art from her mother, a watercolorist, and continued to pursue her artistic career at a collegiate level and beyond. She now works out of a small studio in San Francisco’s Mission District. Hadley goes into her studio seven days a week with her Boston terrier puppy.
