20th Century

About the Item

C.S. Steve Talley Fredericksburg Texas & Santa Fe New Mexico Artist Image Size: 9 x 12 Frame Size: 14 x 17 Medium: Oil "Enchanted Rock" Fredericksburg Texas C. S. “Steve” Talley developed an art interest not long after graduating with a degree in astronomy/physics from the University of Texas at Austin in 1978. Juggling a career in the sciences and ultimately computer programming, his art skills continued to improve by taking workshops from primarily plein air artists. Talley’s style of impressionistic realism continues to evolve as he explores color from bold to tonalist. He takes artistic license to push a color or include a compositional element to accomplish his goal of creating the intangible “strong emotional content”. Beginning as a portrait painter he has evolved to become primarily a western landscape painter. He also enjoys painting astronomical and religious themes. His main influences come from Paul Strisik, Will Sparks, Edgar Payne, Chauncey Foster Ryder, James Reynolds, and Frederick Mulhaupt. Every Summer, Steve travels from his home in Fredericksburg, Texas to his Summer home in Taos, New Mexico. He often travels to Alberta and British Columbia, Canada, his wife's native home, searching for inspiring vistas. His painting of Enchanted Rock State Natural Area was chosen by the Texas Parks and Wildlife department as the focal point for the informational kiosk at the Enchanted Rock Summit trailhead. He has had a one-man show at the Museum of Western Art in Kerrville, Texas and has exhibited at the Salmagundi Art Club in New York City. Talley also teaches landscape painting and is one of the authors of "Paint Fredericksburg, Texas : A Guide for Plein Air Painters". He has been happily married to Ginette for over 35 years and they have two children.

"CHEROKEE SHED" TEXAS HILL COUNRTY CHEROKEE TEXAS
Located in San Antonio, TX
Chuck Mauldin Born 1949 Fredericksburg Artist Size: 6 x 8 Frame: 10 x 12 Medium: Oil "Cherokee Shed" Texas Hill Country A native of Texas, Chuck Mauldin has been painting in oil since the age of twelve. His interest in watercolor and pencil drawing grew during his years spent in Louisiana. With his move back to Texas, he has renewed his focus on oil painting, using this medium in a realistic yet painterly style. Striving to quickly capture color and mood with a direct "alla prima" technique is one of his main objectives in painting outdoors on-location.

"SOLITAIRE" TEXAS PRICKY PEAR CATCUS BLOOMS
Located in San Antonio, TX
Barbara Mauldin Fredericksburg Artist Size: 16 x 12 Frame: 22 x 18 Medium: Oil "Solitaire" Barbara and her husband Chuck moved to Fredericksburg in 2005 after living many years in Louisiana, where she taught art at Baton Rouge Lutheran School. Soon after moving home to Texas, she began painting seriously. She has studied with Ian Roberts, Kevin Macpherson, Jill Carver, Lori Putnam, and (of course!) Chuck Mauldin. Barbara’s work has been accepted in several art events, such as the Women Artists of the West National Show, Contemporary Masters Invitational Art Show in Fredericksburg, the Mountain Oyster Club Art Show, the Plein Air Artists Colorado National Juried Art Exhibition, The Museum of Western Art (Kerrville, TX) “The Party” Art Exhibition and Sale, and others. Her paintings are characterized by color. “I like to emphasize the color that I see, as a creative and emotional response to the landscape.” She works with a limited palette, using a small number of pigments to mix colors, which results in beautiful color harmony. Barbara has focused her attention on the Texas landscape, especially on prickly pear cactus. Cactus is fun to paint. It has a multitude of interesting colors, which are an expression of the harshness of the environment and the amount of direct sun. In spring the colors are lighter and more mellow, and the flowers of late spring are a vibrant yellow and rose, sometimes orange. She enjoys plein air work, accepting the challenges of color, design, and the environment (critters and weather). Texas abounds with variety and inspiration; there is always another painting just around the corner! Her interest in art had always been a part of the fabric of her life. She works mainly in oil, and she also dabbles in pastels, watercolor, church banner...
