About the Item

About the artist: Bay Area artist, Carson Gladon's "transparent collages" combine the elements of nature with a mix of computer graphics and traditional painting using vivid and pastel colors. Seeming, "to infuse the techniques of the European impressionists with a hint of the delicacy of a Chinese or Japanese silk screen" (Deitch). His career began at the age of nineteen; when he won his first award as a painter at a juried show held at the Long Beach Museum of Art in California. Following this he has been the recipient of numerous honors at both one-man and juried exhibitions, and he has devoted himself to the teaching of art. As a professor of art for thirty years at El Camino Community College in the San Francisco Bay area, he teaches painting, drawing and design. With the skills of drafting and photography he has created a new style that he calls "transparent collage." He uses several layers of images in which all of the levels are visible creating luminosity in which the subject matter appears to move in and out of. The composition becoming almost abstract utilizes computer graphics, which he combines with traditional painting or pastel. Gladson's work is part of the permanent collections of both the San Francisco Museum of Art and the Oakland Museum of Art. His art is part of many corporate and private collections, including the Fluor Corporation, Neiman Marcus, AT&T, Toyota, Price Waterhouse, Federated Stores, Bullocks Department Stroe, Cannell & Chaffin, Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, Weyerhauser, Rutan & Tucker, Loeb & Loeb, Warner Brothers, Welton Becket, General Mills, UCLA School of Business, Chapman University, Port of Long Beach, and the California Association of Realtors.

  • "Under the Apple Tree", Figurative Chromolithograph after George Niles, 188/250
    By Louis Prang
    Located in Soquel, CA
    Original chromolithograph by Louis Prang (German/American, 1823-1909) of L. Prang & Co. (American, founded 1860), after "Under the Apple Tree" by George E. Niles (American, 1837-1898). This late 19th century figurative chromolithograph depicts a small boy in a country setting and period dress under an apple tree, reaching into a barrel with a basket of apples spilling into the grass. A German style chromolithograph, this limited edition 188/250 print was created with heavy, oil-based inks which were applied in several layers to impart a texture similar to an original oil painting. Signed and dated in the plate "G.E. Niles 1867". Tag on verso with "Prang's American Chromos - Under the Apple Tree, after Niles - Chromolithographed and published by L. Prang & Co. ...Boston". Displayed in a rustic giltwood beveled frame. Image size: 9"H x 7.25"W. Louis Prang was a foremost lithographer and publisher in New York City from the mid to the end of the 19th Century. Born in Breslau, Germany to a father who was a calico printer, he was an apprentice to his father during his teen-age years and then spent five years as a journeyman, learning printing and dyeing and living in Austria, France and England. However, Prang's liberal political vliews caused him to be deported by the Prussian government during the Revolution of 1848, and fled via Bohemia and Switzerland to get to America. In 1850, Prang went to Boston, having stopped briefly in New York City, and became a publisher and taught himself wood engraving. In 1856, he turned to lithography in partnership with Julius Mayer. In 1860, he founded Louis Prang and Co., which was his own company and the first stiff competition to Currier and Ives. A primary reason for this competition was Prang's active imagination and energetic pursuit of his business. During the Civil War, he published maps and battle plans so that people at home could follow military movements. He also created printed card portraits of Union soldiers...
