About the Item

River in the Desert - Western Plein Aire Landscape in Acrylic on Board Lush Western landscape by California Plein Aire artist Nick White (American, 1943-2009). The viewer stands at the edge of a bright blue river with a small waterfall. Just past the bend in the river, there are lush trees and shrubs, some with yellowing leaves, indicating the transition to autumn. Beyond the trees, a hill gently slopes until it meets large vertical monument rocks, towering above the landscape. Signed in the lower left corner. Acquired from the artist's estate with a collection of his work. Board size: 36"H x 42"W Nick White (American, 1943-2009) began painting in the early 1970s with some early success> Later in life, White was a member (and board member) of the Los Gatos Art Association. He founded the Plein Air group, which he ran until 2009. He was a dedicated painter, leading many excursions regardless of group size. He preferred to paint in acrylic, as its quick-drying properties allowed him to “work fast and loose in the style of the early California impressionists.” Two of his painting were selected for the Fiesta de Artes Posters in 2004 and 2005. Memberships: Los Gatos Art Association. Founder, Plein Air Group.

Only A River's (Gonna Make Things Right), Original Signed Landscape Painting
By Dina Gardner
Located in Boston, MA
Only A River's (Gonna Make Things Right), Original Impressionist Landscape Painting 9" x 12" (HxW) Pastel on Paper Hand-signed by the artist. A combination of an impressionist and expressionist landscape, Dina Gardner's interpretation of the light in this gesturally painted artwork gives an energy and vitality to the work, with the use of rich reds and purples to depict the mountain's rock face. The cool blue waters then re-center the work, grounding the composition and giving it a serene feel that calms the viewer. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: I love music. I have it playing in my house and my studio all day long and I sing all day long. While traveling through the national parks in our RV this year, we were constantly listening to music and my head got stuck on an album from Bob Weir...
