Leaving Sag Harbor by Boat

About the Item

An oil painting by American Painter Carl Bretzke. This waterscape was painted en plein air in Sag Harbor, NY. A boat heads away from the viewer, toward the tree-lined horizon at twilight - a yellow hue is cast over the entire landscape. It's reminiscent of an old sepia toned photograph. Painting dimensions: 12 x 16 inches Framed dimensions: 19 x 23 inches Frame is black with a gold inner trim. Artist Bio: Carl Bretzke is a representational painter who specializes in urban scenes and plein-air landscapes. Carl's work has been exhibited extensively in Minnesota and California, including the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Carl's work has been described in the Washington Post as "simultaneously intimate and detached…The artist's unadorned style recalls Edward Hopper and The Ashcan school."

Carl has also trained extensively under Plein Air Painters of America signature artist Joseph Paquet.

  • Mary in the Garden
    By Carl Bretzke
    Located in Sag Harbor, NY
    An oil painting of a rural property on a sunny day in the United States. A man wears a cowboy hat, a denim shirt, and boots, while holding a shotgun. He's walking with determination to the left of the scene, with a medium sized black dog following him in tow. The bed of a pickup truck catches light in the distance, parked beside the residential structure. A farmhouse with a metal roof, and a wide-hooded porch, stands tall, offering shade and comfort, especially with cushioned armchars to sit on out-front. A few electrical poles reach up towards the sky, confirming the contemporary time frame. In the foreground, a garden is fenced in with wire and wood. A statuette of the Virgin Mary is placed within this fenced garden, absorbing sunlight alongside the plants. An apt depiction of contemporary Americana...
