About the Item
'14,829 East 14th Street' Hand Colored Aquatint Etching 2015
image size 10” x 15” with the paper being larger. Edition of 3' (one of three)
Hand Colored Aquatint Etching with the plate (image itself) 10 x 15 inches. On a larger piece of archival paper at approximately 14 x 19 inches. An iconic still life image featuring an urban East Bay Area scene on East 14th Street, California. Original edition of 3. The Aquatint Etching with hand coloring is from internationally acclaimed American Realist James Torlakson, whose work depicts majesty in the mundane. Torlakson’s everyday “Americana” scenes include suburban landscapes, traveling carnivals, standing fireworks booths, abandoned drive-in theaters, and autobiographical still life scenes from his Bay Area neighborhood memories and travels. Torlakson is a contemporary artist, proficiently working in oil, watercolor and intaglio etching, and employing European master techniques to create compelling works that pull the viewer in, such as the solo light from his neighborhood street at dusk.

25th Street
Located in Salt Lake City, UT
25th Street, by Elise Zoller, 24 x 30 in. oil on panel.
Elise Zoller has recently embarked on a series of plein air paintings of sites around Salt Lake City and in the smaller towns of Utah from Hurricane to Huntsville. She has enjoyed meeting people along the road and learning about the history of the state.
“Plein air work can be physically demanding, but there is no substitute for working from life. Light and shadow dance in subtle ways a photograph cannot capture. Even the wind and the fragrances it carries inform the work. Scenes come alive when you stand in one place for a few hours. You’ve got to get to know a spot,” Elise says.
“While I work, all manner of people come up and talk to me about their towns and their lives. I’ve met a downwinder from Enterprise, pie bakers in Veyo, pony cart...
