About the Item
Original Painting by Samuel Hung
Samuel Hung (b. 1981, Taiwan) is a New York-based artist currently living in Brooklyn. He earned his BFA from the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, CA, and furthered his painting studies at the Grand Central Atelier in Queens, where he became acquainted with the techniques of the 19th-century French Academy. Since then, Hung has honed his skills in still life painting, choosing objects and compositions that elicit playfulness, whimsy, and nostalgia.
About his still life subjects, Hung says: “I am drawn to the beauty of the old and familiar. From Japanese icons to nostalgic Americana, I collect items that are ephemeral and elicit feelings of wistful memory. These forgotten objects evoke an anthropomorphic sense of yearning from the past and elicit feelings of satisfaction one experiences when those moments are relived.”
Hung’s paintings can be found in collections in the United States, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan. He is a principal instructor at the Grand Central Atelier’s core program, where he teaches cast drawing, cast painting, and still life painting.

View from the Train: Cityscape Oil Painting, View of Brooklyn
By Patty Neal
Located in Hudson, NY
View from the Train, 2019
24" X 40" x 1", oil on canvas
This contemporary oil painting depicting a metropolitan view is the work of realist painter Patty Neal. The painting offers an intimate view of the city, as seen from a window, as it peeks from behind two metal structures. The dark browns and bright golds beautifully compliment the dusty blue, gray sky. Neal works highlight everyday city scenes, utilitarian infrastructure, and industrial or electrical apparatus.
Artist statement:
A life is an accumulation of experiences: visual, emotional and mental. By compartmentalizing these snippets of life we create boundaries. The focus of my work for many years has been the exploration of these various life aspects and how they are bound together or bound from each other. My process is often literally composed of boundaries. I make a painting by putting together multiple panels, or I segment a single panel into separate visual spaces. The works are made up of pieces or elements of city and landscape. While exploring the concepts of boundaries I play with visual “reality.” Sometimes I combine images that are upside down with those that are not and juxtapose images from different contexts. Literal boundaries, such as walls fences, expanses of water and highway median strips are also used. My intent is to invite viewers to look beyond these boundaries to see the possibilities of a connected whole.
