About the Item
Subtle and moody portrait of a Pensive man by Joan Tidwell (American, 1930-2002). The sitter in the portrait is a middle-aged man looking slightly downwards, wearing a collared shirt. This piece is completed in a tan and green palette, creating a somber feeling. Of particular note are the confident, thick brushstrokes - each one is well-placed in the modernist style. Similar in some ways to Picasso's portraits.
Signed "Joan Tidwell" on verso
Unframed.
Canvas size: 30"H x 22"W
oan Gay Tidwell (American, 1930-2002) was born and raised in Hollywood, CA, where she had some success as a child actor. Later, she graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Washington with a Master's Degree in English Literature and Drama. Tidwell moved to the Bay Area in 1965 with her husband, where they would remain. She became a well-known artist in the Burlingame - San Mateo community and taught painting to adults and teens.

She began acting at 5 and was cast as the adorable "Darla" on the comedy series "Our Gang" - Little Rascals". As a teen Joan Gay turned to the theatre and eventually, the arts and graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Washington with a Master's Degree in English Literature and Drama.
