Luke Stamos
Mount Hamilton Realist Landscape

1980

About the Item

Vivid, modernist Mt. Hamilton landscape attributed to Luke Stamos (American, 20th century). Oil on canvas. Unsigned. Unframed. Image size: 18"H x 24"W. This art work is in the distinctive realistic style of Luke Stamos. We certify that the work is by the hand of Luke Stamos. Artists statement: "I was born in Chicago, and began studying art at the Chicago Art Institute at age 5. When my family moved to San Francisco in 1944, I became aware of California’s splendid outdoor life, and began to pursue a life-long hobby of hunting and fishing. While attending high school in Daly City, I won an art scholarship to San Francisco’s California School of Fine Art. I attended the Los Angeles School of Arts and Crafts, after which I worked for 2 years with Walt Disney Studios as an assistant Animator. I returned with my family to the Bay Area in 1957, and graduated from San Jose State University in 1960 with a B.A. in Fine Arts. Shortly thereafter, I began working with the County of Santa Clara Planning Department. In retirement, I continue as a wildlife/landscape artist, focusing primarily on the area in the remote back country of Santa Clara County behind Mt. Hamilton. The area may appear monochromatic, but if you look closely enough, you can see the full spectrum of colors that inspire me. I work both plein air and from my photographs. My medium is oil, painted on canvas and board. I’ve had two one-man shows, and was a finalist in the 1984 California Waterfowl Duck Stamp contest. I’m currently showing my work at the Los Gatos Museums Gallery in Los Gatos, CA."
