Max Flandorfer
Max Flandorfer, a plein air painter, is always seeking to capture the spiritual and humble quality of nature. His work evokes a restful, contemplative stillness that he seeks, both in life and his art. Growing up in Miami, Flandorfer spent most weekends and summers outdoors in the Everglades, or on the water soaking up the rich color, and beauty of the tropical landscape. He lived in California for over 20 years and currently resides in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Mostly self-taught, Flandorfer was forever drawing and sketching as a kid, but the beautiful landscape and rich artistic heritage of the Monterey peninsula's artist colony was the deciding influence on his later works. An illustration instructor, Jane Miller of Monterey Peninsula College, encouraged him to study early California greats such as Granville Redmond and Guiseppe Cadennaso, whereby they helped to influence his early palette and style. Although Flandorfer’s current work is uniquely his own, he owes a debt to the early pioneers of California Impressionism. With so much of that landscape quickly disappearing, he tries to capture the spiritual beauty and glimpse of paradise we all seek in our lives. Flandorfer exhibited at Monterey Peninsula College (student /faculty show), Ohr O'Keeffe Museum of Art and “Juried Gulf States Competition 2006.” He is a member of the California Art Club (painting patron).

$1,490 Sale Price32% Off - Vermillion at Lee's Ferry ( Plein Air Landscape painting sky blue terracotta)By Jane ChapinLocated in Cody, WYThis is a 'Plein Air" landscape Painting by Jane Chapin as seen in the viewing room exhibition on Silas VON MORISSE GALLERY. “Plein-Air” is the French expression to describe the act of painting in situ within the landscape, capturing the ever changing weather and light with tonal qualities, colour, loose brushwork and softness of form... The practice of “Plein Air Painting” goes back for centuries but was truly made into an art form by the French Impressionists such as Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir who were advocating of plein air painting. Much of their work was done outdoors in the diffuse light of a large white umbrella. Another major proponent of Plein Air was Jean Baptiste Camille Corot whom Claude Monet considered as “The only One Master here”. Corot provides a transition from the sharp academic style that ruled in his day with focus on the natural world and the lyrical expressiveness of one's work. With her "Plein Air Paintings", Jane Chapin is part of one of the largest art movements in history. Her paintings carry human emotions. We can read her moods and feelings with places that carry deep remembrances for the artist that go beyond the descriptive. "My paintings grow from observing and interpretating light as it emerges from, surrounds and reflects on everyday people and scenes. They seek to remind us of the beauty of our common surroundings, regardless of where we are." - Jane Chapin Jane Chapin Painting the Land of the Free...Category
