About the Item

Paula Clendenin (American, b. 1949) Untitled, 1983 Lithograph Sight: 30 x 22 1/2 in. Framed: 44 3/4 x 34 3/4 in. Numbered, titled, dated and signed bottom: 1/15 / "The Things That Matter" / 83 Artist Paula Clendenin was born June 22, 1949, in Cedar Grove, Kanawha County. She has earned national acclaim for her paintings: richly colored, textured shapes that merge West Virginia’s mountain landscape with mystical and spiritual symbols. Clendenin attended West Virginia University, where she received a bachelor’s degree and M.F.A. During her final semester of undergraduate school, she was inspired by a printmaking class to pursue art. She continued to make prints, but also began to paint on canvas. By the mid-1980s, Clendenin had developed a distinctive painting style, characterized by multilayered surfaces and mountain shapes. Her preferred medium is oil stick and paper. Clendenin’s work has been featured in more than a dozen solo exhibitions and in numerous exhibitions with other artists. More than 25 corporate, private, and public collections display her paintings. Clendenin’s paintings also appear in collections at the Library of Congress, Dallas Library Commission in Texas, and Fleet-Boston, formerly the Bank of Boston. Clendenin has won several honors including the Governor’s Award three times in the West Virginia Juried Exhibition, and the Award of Excellence at Huntington Museum of Art’s Exhibition 280. She lives in Charleston, WV and teaches at West Virginia State University. She has taught at several institutions, including the University of Houston, Marshall University, West Virginia Wesleyan College, and the Governor’s School for the Arts.

Cindy Kane 1985 Original Painting on Plywood
By Cindy Kane
Located in New York, NY
Cindy Kane (American, b. 1957) Untitled, 1985 Oil on plywood Sight: 31 1/2 x 28 1/2 in. Framed: 39 3/4 x 36 x 2 in. Signed lower right: KANE Signed, titled, dated verso: Cindy Kane, Untitled, 1985 Cindy Kane (American, 1957-) grew up in Washington DC during the Vietnam War era, absorbing the period's powerful political climate. She is a self-taught artist whose multi media work is born out of a deep sense of connection to the political and environmental issues of our times. Her early work was influenced by the experience of living and working at the bottom of the Grand Canyon National Park, where she had the opportunity to document Anasazi Indian pictographs in pen and ink drawings. These images would inform her work for years to come. She draws on personal narrative and experience to create her paintings of maps, birds, toys, and artifacts from nature, often collaging bits of newspaper headlines, pieces of her children's homework, and pages of sheet music beneath layers of color and imagery. In a review of her work, author and critic John Loughery wrote; "Kane leads us into a peculiar netherworld, a hard to place area that's both reassuringly ancient, and anxiously modern. This is a painter who is interested in the unconscious and the archetypal, and utilizes her own private, (but not inaccessible) vocabulary and imagery." In a submission to AskART, Diana Wilson...
