About the Item
'Limon' depicts the sun lit facade of a classic California building with terra-cotta roof tiles and at the sign for Limon restaurant, a well known spot in Burlingame and the clear blue California sky. The work of art is meticulously hand painted by Lynette Cook, who realistically depicts scenes of the Bay Area that she sees during her morning walks through the city, yet her paintings tend to reveal more than what initially meets the eye. "Limon"is a beautiful and provocative original painting.
Exterior facades of urban dwellings that are both architecturally complex — and mundane — are the focus of Cook’s Shadows and Silhouettes series of contemporary photorealistic acrylic paintings that capture San Francisco and other Northern California towns and convey the stories of their inhabitants. The paintings often feature the rhythmic dark-light dance of light traveling through wrought-iron balconies and inner-city fire escapes, and captures that which is universal and connects all people in their elemental desire to create a sense of home.
Lynette Cook's important architectural series — Shadows and Silhouettes — was exhibited at California’s Morris Graves Museum in 2016. In the same year the artist was awarded a prestigious Jackson Pollock, Lee Krasner Foundation honorary grant. And her work is currently being exhibited at the Peninsula Museum of Art in California.
"Limon" is an original acrylic on canvas painting. The overall dimension is 16 x 12 inches. Hand painted in 2021, Condition is excellent. Signed front and verso, dated and titled by artist.

25th Street, by Elise Zoller, 24 x 30 in. oil on panel.
Elise Zoller has recently embarked on a series of plein air paintings of sites around Salt Lake City and in the smaller towns of Utah from Hurricane to Huntsville. She has enjoyed meeting people along the road and learning about the history of the state.
“Plein air work can be physically demanding, but there is no substitute for working from life. Light and shadow dance in subtle ways a photograph cannot capture. Even the wind and the fragrances it carries inform the work. Scenes come alive when you stand in one place for a few hours. You’ve got to get to know a spot,” Elise says.
“While I work, all manner of people come up and talk to me about their towns and their lives. I’ve met a downwinder from Enterprise, pie bakers in Veyo, pony cart...
