Salvador Caballero, (1943 - 2006) was one of many self-taught painters of whom it could be said that painting was in his blood.
In studying the work and life of Caballero, only one influential predecessor in his history can be cited: his uncle, Vincente del Olmo, a serious painter whom Caballero remembered fondly and studied with for several years. Over time, Caballero perfected his talent and evolved into a master painter, capturing the essence of Mediterranean life from Spanish courtyards to Barcelona streets to countryside farmhouses to lake scenes.
Caballero began his professional career as an illustrator and designer of book and magazine covers. This occupation helped him acquire the
agility and precise aptitude for drawing. Caballero’s keen drawing ability allowed him to work in a wide range of themes such as portraits and still lifes as well as his famous landscapes.
With his knowledge of design and drawing, Caballero did not delay submerging himself in the complicated world of painting. In 1983, he held his first professional showing. His exhibits were selective through the years, and his work entered into the professional circuit mostly by way of merchants and gallery owners who organized their own shows of his paintings throughout the Iberian Peninsula in Spain.
To fully appreciate Caballero’s work, one must look to the pictorial precedents of his artistic career. Time spent in San Feliu de Guixols, at the heart of Costa Brava in Spain, placed him in contact with the unique scenery of this beautiful
coastal area and its rich Mediterranean woods. Caballero became drawn into this diverse beauty, continually renewed as he placed his easels before these varied landscapes so as to transmit to the canvas the constant emotion that this scenery provokes.
In reference to landscape, he felt great attraction to the countryside, which was greatly represented in his work. The mountains, valleys and volcanoes in the areas of Garrotxa, Ripolles and Osona in Spain as well as the brave and valiant shoreline that symbolizes the coastal lands of Upper and Lower Ampurdan or Maresme provided a bounty of inspiration. His ability to reflect the reality of each environment contributed to the making of a work filled with interest, framed in detailed impressionism.
The professional career of Salvador Caballero coincided with his long-time marriage to his wife, Trini Martin, who had accompanied him in the good and bad moments as a constant presence at his side. Trini’s companionship was one of the positive pages in the life of this painter who established himself, within the panorama of Catalonian painting, as one of the classic landscapists of our time.

- 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
