About the Item
Willard Dixon still life with collection of objects that the artist has painted over the years in this tranquil, grey and neutral oil on canvas painting.
"With the perspective afforded as my practice of painting moves into its fifth decade, I have occasion to reflect on the common spirit that might be running through the work, underlying the different approaches and subject matter that have emerged over the years. What I perceive most clearly in the work that is most successful, is a sense of presence or aliveness, and a rightness of form, scale and color. Somehow through luck, hard work or some combination of the two, I've been able to find and draw these qualities out of the paint. In my landscapes, that can be achieved through a certain evocation of space and light. In the still life’s, by a concentration on composition and scale and a reduction to essentials. Through it all I've learned to accept and enjoy the impossibility of having more than a momentary resting place before moving on to another attempt. I do appreciate more and more the way a painting, its spirit arising out of such humble materials, continues to rest silently on the wall, contemplating both itself and the viewer amidst the hurried buzz of our contemporary lives, offering a refuge and occasion for those who desire a deeper and more satisfying engagement of our attention. Willard Dixon's work is collected internationally and is included in the collections of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the Oakland Museum of California.

Loftus taught at both University of California at Santa Cruz and Cabrillo Community College between 1975, through the present (at UCSC).

During that time, he also sustained a rigorous exhibition schedule, showing regularly on the East and West coasts; in New York at Fischbach Gallery, and San Francisco at William Sawyer Gallery and later Hackett-Freedman Gallery. In addition, Loftus has participated in a number of group exhibitions. These include: American Realism: 20th Century Drawings and Watercolors (and accompanying book), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, New Horizons in American Realism: Flint Institute of Arts, Flint, MI.
