Max Flandorfer
Quiet Pond at Sunset - California Golden Hour Landscape

2018

About the Item

Brilliant landscape of a glowing pond at sunset, California's golden hour, by Max Flandorfer (American, b. 1962), 2018. Signed by the artist in the lower left corner. Signed and dated in pencil by the artist on verso. Titled by the artist in pen on verso. Presented in a complimentary gold colored frame. Image, 10.38"H x 13.5"W. Canvas size, 12"H x 16"W. Primarily a plein air painter, Max is an avid outdoorsman and 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, he spent most weekends and summers outdoors in the Everglades, or on the water soaking up the rich color, and beauty of the tropical landscape. Flandorfer lived in California for over 20 years, and currently resides in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Mostly self-taught, Max 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 pallete and style. Although his 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. Exhibitions: Student /faculty show- Monterey Peninsula College Ohr O'Keeffe Museum of Art - Juried Gulf States Competition 2006. He is a member of the California Art Club (Painting patron)

  • "Wholford Hills" Rural California Landscape Painting
    Located in Houston, TX
    California landscape painting of a rural landscape in an impressionist style. The work is signed and titled by the artist on the bottom of the canvas and the back of the canvas. Dimensions without Frame: H 26 in x W 32 in x D 1 in. Artist Biography: William Galen Doss was one of the earliest artists that settled in Laguna Beach having arrived there in 1922. As a founding member, he became known as the "Dean of the Laguna Beach Artist Colony". Born in Illinois both of his parents died when he was nine years old. After having lived in Michigan he made the move to California after corresponding with young cousins. The glowing accounts of the state compelled him to relocate. He arrived in Los Angeles in 1904. A newspaper interview with Doss recalled his love for art even as a child. He couldn't recall a time when he wasn't without a bunch of brushes and paint in his hands. His first oil painting at the age of ten was of his favorite horse. The artist's obituary has recollections, from early colony members, of Doss and his many walks with colleague, Frank Cuprien...
