Edward Butler Paintings
b. 1948
Edward A. Butler (b. 1948, Philadelphia, PA) completed his BFA at the Philadelphia College of Art. A passionate painter from a young age, Butler's subject matter varies from landscapes to animal portraits to still life. The constant in his work is the drama of light and shadow, along with a strong affinity for simplicity and beauty. Butler strives to convey a contemporary point of view while utilizing the techniques of the old masters. In the artist's words: "Painting for me is a process of selection and dismissal. I endeavor to accept nothing that fails to please the eye. Within that framework, I can be quite literal or work from a mix of educated observation and fantasy. When I am successful, the result, the finished painting, should seem inevitable."
His work is represented in numerous private collections.to

Night Season (Impressionistic Oil Painting of Tiger Striped Cat on a Porch)
By David Konigsberg
Located in Hudson, NY
56 x 58 x 2 inches
oil on canvas, white wood frame
Through expressionistic gestures and a sophisticated handling of paint, David Konigsberg's works take on a life of their own, so that even inanimate objects seem filled with energy and intent. This painting captures a delightful scene of a lazy cat taking a nap in the abundant late afternoon light on a porch.
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.
The artist’s work has been exhibited throughout out the United States and has been featured in The New York Times, Chronogram and Brooklyn Journal and numerous art and culture blogs. David Konigsberg lives and works in Hudson, New York.
