Printed and published by Editions Press, San Francisco and with their blindstamp. Four prints by this artist, including this one.
Painter, printmaker, illustrator, graphic designer and art director, Roy Carruthers was born in Port Elizabeth, South Africa and first studied at the Port Elizabeth Technical College Art School. From 1956, he worked as an art director and graphic designer in South Africa and, after 1960, in London. In 1968, he immigrated to the United States and worked in the advertising industry in New York. In 1974, Carruthers started his own graphic design firm while pursuing his career as a fine artist producing original paintings, drawings and etchings. His collaboration with Editions Press in San Francisco produced both sculpture and color lithographs, of which this work is a pristine example. He also maintained an academic career, teaching graphic techniques at Manhattan's School for the Visual Arts.
Over the course of a distinguished career, Roy Carruthers exhibited widely and with success and was the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards including a gold medal from the Society of Illustrators (1973). His work continued to be exhibited in South Africa and the United States and throughout Europe.

Juan Francisco Vidaller (1925) - Sheep shepherd landscape - Oil on canvas
Oil measures 38x46 cm.
Frameless.
Painter born in 1925. Self-taught. In love with nature, the countryside, the sea and its people have been the main theme of his paintings. On this occasion, they reflect his primordial interpretation of what he has observed for decades in Girona, from its Empordà coast to the Garrotxa Volcanic. Two key points: his predilection for autumnal and marine themes, his sailing boats with the people who crewed them. These are some authoritative opinions:
... Vidaller is in love with the classics. his painting concretizes reality, seeking the imperishable quality of painting of all time. In his paintings we rediscover the old silence of the countryside, the transparent grass of the waters, the restful path, the boats, the seafarers... Molí, Art Critics Association.
... perhaps the greatness of this artist lies in being unique in the midst of progressive fever. Perhaps it could be, in the conviction that authentic artistic identity depends more on quality than on novelty... Rafael L. Pozo.

James C. Borden Large Cityscape Street Scene Watercolor Painting Cerused Frame
Located in Chattanooga, TN
Absolutely masterful watercolor street scene painting by James C. Borden (1928-2013). Prepare to be awestruck when you lay eyes on this exquisitely detailed watercolor painting by James Borden. The modern painting depicts an ethereal urban scene crowned with summer light. The scale itself is impressive at over four feet wide and three feet high (50.75? x 36.675?). There is just so much to see, so much texture, so many layers. Borden has truly mastered his medium. This is a watercolor cityscape on paper, housed in a cerused wood frame and protected by a pane of acrylic. The painting’s vibrant colors have beautifully preserved. The mastery of this painting is unreal. Borden’s orchestration of color leads the eye through the painting with late afternoon sunlight carving a path through an otherwise gray urban interior. His use of color is narrative. The viewer is being teased away from gloomy city life with a glimmer of sun and nature on the horizon. The nuance in his layering, through elevated passages of transparency… simply brilliant. Be sure to spend time with this painting. There is more to see each and every time you look. Did you notice the Easter egg? Borden used his name as the sign on one of the buildings on the left. The painting is pencil signed “Jim Borden.”
James C. Borden studied at the School of the American Academy of Art in Chicago and was a life long painter. Mr. Borden spent much of his life in South Bend...
