Clams #19 (Contemporary Realist Still Life Painting of Shells with Gold Leaf)

2021

About the Item

"Clams #19" By Matthew Hopkins, 2021 Oil on panel 6x8 inches 9.5x11.5 inches framed Matthew Hopkins corrals commonplace, household objects as the subject of his charming, often miniature depictions in oil. In a recent series, Hopkins turns to the sea to gathers up clam shells, a fascinating shape produced in nature, where similar to snowflakes, no two are the same. Hopkins infuses texture, light and shadow into these uniquely painted gems, and tops off each one with a bit of 24 carat gold leaf! The painting is complimented with a traditional gold frame that can be hung or propped on a tabletop. Ideal for your entryway, or as an enviable gift for a fellow fan of traditional still life painting. About the artist: Matthew Hopkins is a contemporary American painter who grew up on Long Island, spent his summers in the Thousand Islands and has since settled in between. His schooling includes the Rochester Institute of Technology, Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and the College of Saint Rose in Albany. His paintings in both watercolor and oil have been exhibited and honored in numerous regional and national exhibitions and are held in many private collections. He lives in Ames, NY with his wife and four children.

Floral Bouquet (Lively Still Life Oil Painting of Flowers on Canvas)
By Dale Payson
Located in Hudson, NY
Oil painting on canvas, unframed 32 x 27 inches This still life oil painting of a bouquet of vibrant lilies, roses and irises was painted by Hudson Valley-based artist Dale Payson. The range of canary and pastel yellows, emerald green, beige and burnt umber hues that span the canvas are complimented by Payson's skillfully executed impasto technique. Payson captures the essence of her subject matter and abstracts it in the same stroke, rendering each painting somewhere between representation and interpretation. About the artist: Payson studied extensively at the School of Visual Arts in New York and eventually taught at this prestigious institution. Before painting became her sole ambition, she was a freelance book illustrator and has more than 25 books to her credit. Dale Payson also studied under Robert...
