Summer Day Lilies (Contemporary Still Life of Vibrant Lilies, Oil on canvas) by Dan Rupe 22 x 22 inches oil on canvas Signed on reverse Artist Dan Rupe paints only from life, his composition ruled by his intuitive sense of formal order. He begins covering his canvas with a deep crimson wash. This ground gives his brilliant pure color , applied with an expressive, direct gesture, an electric charge. No matter how often or how long one looks at a Rupe painting, it is always the present tense. The tone of his palette, the freshness and clarity of primary colors, reflects an optimistic attitude, an intrinsic love of life. In this work, three vibrant pale nude colored lilies open their blooms amidst bright green grasses. Rupe succeeds at capturing the immediacy of his subjects be it flowers, buildings or people. Read below for an amusing profile written about the artist in 2003: You‘ve likely seen him on the streets of Hudson, seated before his canvas in a multi-colored paint daubed t-shirt and shorts, his straw hat providing shade for all but his tanned forearms and knees. His splattered Technicolor Walkman tape player...

Contemporary Oil Painting of State St. in Hudson, NY by Dan Rupe Oil on canvas 18 x 24 inches This colorful depiction of cool gray and yellow houses in the sun was painted by Hudson, NY artist Dan Rupe. The buttery yellow house stands out against its pastel blue surroundings alongside a wood sided townhouse. Paint is applied loosely to the canvas in thick, vivid strokes, lending the painting a very palpable texture that is characteristic of Rupe's work. Bright swaths of color applied with bold strokes thick with paint are his signature techniques. A new series of ‘en plein air’ paintings rediscover the charming town of Athens, NY where the diverse architecture spans over three centuries and the city layout has essentially remained the same since the late 19th century About the artist and work: Dan Rupe paints only from life, his composition ruled by his intuitive sense of formal order.

"My life as a painter began in the late 1950s when abstraction was “The only game in town”. I followed and progressed through gesture, organic and finally, geometric non-objective painting. The radical move for me was to discover that the real world of landscape lurked behind all that past work. My childhood in the mountains of Pennsylvania pervaded my “way of seeing” and I wanted to investigate and celebrate the infinite variety of tone, color and composition that I found around me. Sky, the structure of trees, mist and water appeared to fill a hunger to look again and again. There was mystery and danger lurking behind the beauty, and my aim was to try to avoid the cliché and explore the infinite structure of the visual landscape. Now I use my camera as a sketchbook and search for images that seem to offer odd structure and “mystery”. I shoot multiple points of view, cull, crop, and mostly discard. The surviving photographs become the catalyst for the paintings and the process is always a mediation between memory and the small image pinned to my easel...
