About the Item
Colourful Still Life, Impressionist Oil Painting, Signed
By French artist Claude Benard, (1926 - 2016)
Signed by the artist on the lower right hand corner
Oil painting on board, unframed
Board size: 11.5 x 13.5 inches
Rich and colourful still life of some prized possessions of this French artist. An eclectic group of items, a peach coloured single rose, a book, and a vase with a red drape behind. The colour palette ranges from indian yellow to greens and reds.
This fine oil painting displays the artists incredible talent for colour and detailing. Showing the precise details such as the picture painted on the vase, the book spine and such forth. A lovely oil painting that I imagine would sit well in a study or perhaps a drawing room.
Claude Benard was born in Cholet in 1926 but shortly after his family moved to Angouleme (1928), where he was to live until his death in 2016. Studying at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris and also in the studios of Cheyssial and Fougerat. At the age of 21, he began exhibiting at the Salon des Artistes Francais. After time traveling to broaden his artistic experience he returned to his home town to continue painting professionally. He became a Professor at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Angouleme from 1957-1980.
Benard exhibited with numerous prestigious institutions throughout France and abroad, including the Salon des Artistes Francais, Salon des Independants and the Salon d'Automne, Paris. He was the holder of more than seventy awards. In 1978, he founded the Cercle Angoumousin des Arts and in 1979 organised a Salon of Contemporary Art in Angouleme bringing together celebrated artists from the Charente region. His style evolved from figurative in the 1960's, through to Surrealism into the 1970's and onwards. Four tribute exhibitions of his works were held in Angouleme in 1972, 1984, 2001 and 2017.

Gladiolus. Flower impressionist oil painting, Framed. Original by Simon Kozhin
By Simon Kozhin
Located in Zofingen, AG
In crafting this piece, I channeled my reverence for nature’s elegance into each stroke. The interplay of impressionism and realism breathes life into the oil medium, capturing the delicate essence of the bloom. It's a spirited dance of texture and light, meant to evoke a sense of tranquility and contemplation in any space it inhabits. Through these blossoms, I share with you a moment of serene beauty, forever preserved in vibrant hues and dynamic contrasts. A flower with a beautiful structure, delicate color and plastic forms. The very perfection of nature. This creation can be admired endlessly.

By William Schultz
Located in Surfside, FL
William J. Schultz, American (1919 - 2005)
William J. "Bill" Schultz had been a renowned American Impressionist artist and teacher for over sixty-five years.
Co-Founder, and Director of the AIS had inspired numerous professional artists and teachers through his teaching. He also was a Master Pastelist in the Pastel Society of America and had won many awards for his oil and pastel paintings.
Born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts in 1919, he died in Vero Beach, Florida in 2005. He served in the Army in World War II including duty in Europe. He was discharged in 1946 with rank of First Sergeant. Schultz began his art studies with Martin C. Hoy, a fine artist and student of Robert Henri and William M. Chase. He graduated from The Vesper George School Of Art in Boston, Massachusetts in 1949. He then studied under National Academicians Jerry Farnsworth, Ivan Olinsky (a student of John Singer Sargent) and Robert Brackman. Winner of many awards for oil and pastel works. Was a noted portrait artist.
He was a founding Director of the American Impressionist Society and an award winning member of the Pastel Society Of America. He studied under notable National Academicians Robert Brachman, Ivan Olinsky and Jerry Farnsworth.
Schultz opened his own art studio and school in Lenox, Massachusetts and taught impressionist painting to hundreds of students, some of whom are now nationally recognized themselves. After 25 years at that location Schultz and his wife moved to Vero Beach, Florida where he continued to teach, as well as provide lectures and exhibitions around the country.
Illustrated articles about Schultz and his work have appeared in "American Artist", "Southwest Profiles", "Artists Of Florida" and other periodicals.
For a short time he studied alongside Norman Rockwell at a studio in Stockbridge, Massachusetts where Rockwell had established the base for his illustration work. Schultz was the proud possessor of an autographed sketch of himself that Norman Rockwell had created and was signed by Rockwell.
Schultz's art has been exhibited in museums and galleries in Boston, New York City, Sante Fe, and numerous Florida locations...
