Alan Feltus Art
American
Alan Feltus was born in Washington, D.C. in 1943 and grew up in Manhattan. Feltus studied for one year at the Tyler School of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, and then received a BFA from Cooper Union in New York, and an MFA from Yale University. Since 1987, he has lived and worked in Italy. In his paintings, while working intuitively, he choreographs figures in enigmatic relationships, without referring to live models or preconceived concepts and compositional ideas. He creates a silence in his paintings and avoids specific meanings, believing that paintings “which are difficult or seemingly impossible to fully comprehend” are the most interesting.
Feltus has received many awards for his work that include the Rome Prize Fellowship, a National Endowment for the Arts Individual Grant in Painting, a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Grant in Painting, two Pollock Krasner Foundation Grants in Painting, the Augustus Saint-Gaudens Award from Cooper Union, and the Raymond P.R. Neilson Prize from the National Academy of Design. His work has been featured in exhibitions around the country and he’s had solo museum exhibitions at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, The Huntington Museum of Art in WV, and the Wichita Art Museum. His work is in public collections that include the Arkansas Art Center, the Bayly Art Museum in Charlottesville, VA, The Corcoran Gallery of art, Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, and Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C., the Huntington Museum of Art in WV, the National Academy of Design in New York, the Oklahoma City Art Museum, and the Wichita Art Museum. to

By Billy Devorss
Located in Spokane, WA
Original Pin-Up Girl with Red Hat vintage pin-up poster. Artist: Billy Devorss. Size: 15.25" x 20". Archival linen backed in mint condition; ready to frame.
This striking original poster displays a graceful model wearing a vibrant red sun hat against a light blue background. This is truly a lovely piece!
Billy DeVorss (1908 – 1985) was a self-taught illustration artist who started his commercial career in 1933. He was well known throughout his career for the voluptuous figures and attractive faces of his images. This poster is one of those great pin-up style images created by DeVorss.

Until that time, he had been working as a teller in a bank in St. Joseph, Missouri. There, he met the stunning woman Glenna, who became his wife and first official model. Encouraged to develop his talent by Gene Sayles, the manager of Brown and Bigelow...
