Betsy Podlach
'Hudson River' by Betsy Podlach - Colorful Bright Impressionist Landscape

2021

About the Item

Betsy Podlach’s "Hudson River" is an expressive landscape painted in oil on canvas, capturing the serene and timeless beauty of the famed river. Spanning 25.5" x 30", this piece utilizes a restrained palette of cool blues, earthen greens, and warm accents to compose the tranquil waters and the lush, rolling hills that border them. The brushwork is deliberate, with broad, confident strokes that build a textured surface, suggesting the tactile qualities of nature. The sky, rendered in soft whites and blues, complements the rich landscape below. This piece evokes a sense of calm reflection, inviting viewers to ponder the enduring grace of natural vistas. The style embodies a contemporary impressionistic approach, where the essence and mood of the landscape are more important than detailed representation. "Hudson River" stands as a testament to the quiet majesty of nature and Podlach's ability to translate it onto canvas. About the Artist: Betsy Podlach is a figurative painter deeply rooted in tradition, yet her approach is refreshingly modern. Drawing on the principles of abstract expressionism, Podlach seeks to create space and light on the canvas using color, lines, and forms that evoke a magical synthesis of the physical and the spiritual. Her work reflects the influences of both Italian Venetian masters and American abstract expressionists, with the likes of Titian and Jackson Pollock being her most notable mentors. She has studied with key figures from the New York school of the 1950s and has also spent significant time painting in Italy and Paris. Podlach’s work is not just an expression of form but a deeper communication of human experience, aiming to convey emotions, force, and movement without the use of words. She embraces life's complexities and seeks to reflect them in her work, making her creations a vivid embodiment of her love for life and art. Some of Betsy's paintings were printed on apparel at Marni's 2019 Milan Fashion Show. THE NEW YORK TIMES: "IN BETSY’S SENSUAL PORTRAITS, IS AN UNDERCURRENT OF LOVE. In all the works, the soul of the narrative rests in the models’ eyes — often closed — and in their lips, painted in the embellishment of feminine beauty and emblematic of profound, not carnal, desire." The painting comes with a certificate of authenticity and a letter of appraisal.

  • "Sanctuary" Impressionist Realism Landscape Oil on Linen
    By Uri Blayer
    Located in Carmel, CA
    "Sanctuary," a 16" x 28" oil on linen creation by Israeli artist Uri Blayer, is a serene portrayal of rustic tranquility set against a lush mountainous backdrop. In this piece, Blayer employs a palette dominated by earthy greens, rich browns, and soft greys, evoking the natural harmony of the rural landscape. The painting’s composition leads the viewer’s gaze across a verdant field to the quaint cottage, a splash of blue on its roof adding a gentle contrast to the surrounding neutral tones. The artwork radiates a calming, almost nostalgic emotion, reminiscent of a quiet life, undisturbed by the bustle of modernity. Blayer’s brushwork combines precision with a gentle looseness that gives "The Little Cottage" a dreamlike quality, inviting one to step into its peaceful world.
