The horizontal print features six abstracted figures walking along a clouded country landscape under a blue sky. Loose, gestural brushstrokes further abstract the image and provide visual texture. The monotype measures 12 x 24 inches on 22 x 33 inch acid-free, 100% cotton Rives BFK paper. The artist's signature is located in the lower right corner.
About the artist:
David Konigsberg is a conceptual realist who works across media and painting genres to portray transitional spaces, metaphoric moments and alternative histories. A long-time member of the Gowanus and Red Hook artist communities in Brooklyn, he is now based in Hudson and employs the area's landscapes as the setting and sometimes subject of his work.
Artist Statement:
In many ways, this is a more intimate and personal group of paintings than in years past in that it draws from heavily from personal experience and my everyday surroundings, and rather than take this to another level of imaginary landscape and history, I stay in the moment and let the forces within that resonate with the viewer. In particular, the landscapes in this show draw from my long walks nearby and climbs in the Catskills. I find these walks and adventures among ancient mountains spiritual and deeply rewarding.
At the same time, I have this habit of juxtaposing minuteness and immensity, and introduce, as well, the experience of my garden, a highly structured urban oasis whose most rebellious and delightful aspects are accidental poppies between the beds of unruly zinnias. In this group, I focus on what the garden produces in a collection of still lives and figures.
These days, I find myself less inclined to make art that is supposed to be “about something” and am comfortable with letting metaphor reveal itself in quiet and unexpected ways. In fact, I’d say that many of these paintings took be by surprise. Although executed squarely within the traditions of landscape and still life, they have a life of their own. And to me, at least, they seem to come from somewhere beyond my control.
David Konigsberg is an accomplished artist, exhibiting on a national scale. His work has been represented by Carrie Haddad Gallery based in Hudson, NY for over 15 years.

- Yield and Overcome (Archival Print of Blue Ball Point Pen Forest Landscape)By Linda Newman BoughtonLocated in Hudson, NYArchival inkjet print of a realistic Birch tree forest landscape made with blue ball-point pen "Yield and Overcome", original drawing made in 2022 by Linda Newman Boughton, limited edition of 15 prints made the same year Archival inkjet prints on German watercolor paper 38.5 x 30 inches unframed, framing options available Signed and editioned by the artist Excellent condition This suite of limited edition prints captures Linda Newman Boughton’s Baroque inspired landscape "Yield and Overcome" in vivid detail. Taking four months to create, the original drawing was made entirely using the artist's favorite brand of “Rite in the Rain” waterproof blue-ink pen. Working from a photograph, Boughton employed a variation of pen strokes, combining gestural lines that serve as the drawing’s foundation, with tighter strokes to develop the sections of intricate detail. From a wild and tangled web of lines emerges identifiable forms, such as a complex root system or a bushy canopy of leaves. The work itself feels kinetic; millions of mark makings vibrate with an energy that stems from a sacred connection to nature. Boughton’s passion for the arts began early, as she acted, made art, and designed theatrical sets throughout her youth. She went on to study fashion illustration at Florida State University before transferring to F.I.T in New York City. Experience in the fashion world and her love for theatre soon landed her jobs in Hollywood, painting sets and murals for feature films such as Nightmare on Elm Street VII, Fight Club, among many others. The artist lives in Ghent, NY with her husband where she continues to make art and write and create show ideas for television. Artist Bio: Linda grew up in an artistic and theatrical family in Tampa, Florida. Drawing and painting always felt effortless and fun for her. Acting and designing in theatre also made up much of her early years. Her first choice in higher education was at Florida State University where she was a theatre major and had an art minor. At the University drawing skills were emphasized, and with a love of drawing people, she found herself in a fashion illustration class, loving every minute of it. Within a year of taking that class, she taught a summer fashion illustration course at Florida State University, and soon made her move to New York City where she attended the prestigious Fashion Institute of Technology, graduating Cum Laude, with a degree in fashion illustration. She worked in the fashion industry for the next several years, illustrating, designing accessories and shooting freelance photography. Her love of acting and design soon propelled her to seek out Hollywood and the creative opportunities of working in the movie industry. Within in a year Linda was working as a lead scenic artist painting sets and murals for feature films.
