About the Item
A lovely landscape oil painting on a wooden board. This is a small but highly detailed piece. It is most certainly in the category of "photos do not do this work justice". The rolling hills lead you into the rainy clouds and it tricks the brain into thinking you can smell the wet fields. It is most wonderful to see this work in person. It brings the sense of falling through a portal or peeking through one into a different part of the world.
Signed and dated by the artist on the lower right.
Artwork Size: 7 x 12"
Frame Size: 14 1/2" x 17 1/2"

After working for nine years in advertising and package design, Doug joined Avon Products and served as Creative Director of Design from 1971-1996. Doug's training as a professional illustrator led him to produce realistic renditions of many everyday scenes whether they arepure landscapes, architectural elements or figures.

The art program began in 1947 and there are now more than 10,000 works in he collection. Reproductions have appeared in publications and media, and the original pieces are displayed in museums, at the Pentagon, on Air Force bases, and in public exhibitions around the world. Doug is honored to have his works included in permanent exhibitions at The National Museum of the United States Air Force at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH; the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC and the Air Force Art Collection in Washington, DC Doug continues to be actively involved in the art and documentary programs.
