Thomas Prentiss was an American still life painter born in 1920. Very few records are available detailing his life and career. Prentiss was based in New York City.[He primarily painted still life in the trompe l’oeil style, which uses realistic imagery to create the optical illusion that the featured subjects are three dimensional. Prentiss’ works were exhibited in the Corcoran Gallery biannual exhibition in 1959, the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts annual exhibition in 1962, and the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1962.

- [Glasses] Large Original Oil Painting by Robert White, Frameless DisplayLocated in Encino, CAUntitled [Glasses], an original oil on canvas by Robert K. White, is a piece for the true collector. White’s careful attention to detail and vivid use of browns project from the painting, immediately capturing the viewer's attention and highlighting the artist's keen ability to capture emotion and life - all in a brushstroke. White's talent for depicting light and shadow provides the foundation for him to deliver subjects and scenes to the viewer's eye. This masterful work would make a great addition to an art collection and enhance most any home, perfect for those who have an affinity for still lifes, interior paintings, and color-rich works of art. In the artist’s own words, “I don’t paint what is inside of me; I paint what I see outside of me. I’m an observer. If I see something and I feel an affinity for it, something just clicks in my head. I’ll make the decision right then and there to paint that particular subject during that particular moment. It’s a perfect moment. Once something has caught my eye and I’ve heard the “perfect” click, it’s like a photograph has been taken in my mind’s eye. I only have a few days of clarity with that image. I have to start the painting quickly or else it will be gone and I will lose that image forever.” Artist: ROBERT KENNETH WHITE...Category
