Arn Ghigliazza Art

American, b. 1937

Arn Ghigliazza, a native San Franciscan, earned a BA and an MA in painting and art history from San Francisco State University. He was a cartoonist/graphic artist for the college's humor magazine, the Garter, and one of the founders of the publication. He served two years as an illustrator in the U.S. Army. Later, he taught art at Santa Cruz High School and Harbor High School, where he headed the art department. Ghigliazza also taught modern art history and art appreciation at Cabrillo College. His work has been shown in various San Francisco galleries. Ghigliazza's work has been described by San Francisco art critic Axenander Fried "as having a refined, atmospheric gentility...dealing with visionary geometry." Of his work, Arn Ghigliazza has said, "I base my work on Indian designs and symbols of North and Central America. There are magnificent works of many great abstract geometric painters of this century. They have been created through logic in the tradition of the many thousands of unknown primitive artists who created their work instinctively in a search for order. I hope sincerely that my work brings attention to their cultures and that I have pleased their spirits."

Early 19th Century English watercolour of woodland near Croxdale Hall
Located in Harkstead, GB
A very attractive and meticulously executed view of a rocky landscape within the woods dating to 1823. This would suit a library or study with its muted tones and skifull draughtsmanship. William Nicholson (1781-1844) Near Croxdale Hall Signed with initials and inscribed with title and date 1823 Pen, ink and grey wash 11 x 8 inches, image only 17 x 13 inches without frame The portrait-painter and etcher William Nicholson was born in Ovingham-on-Tyne, Northumberland, on Christmas Day 1781. His family transferred to Newcastle when his father was appointed Headmaster of the city's Grammar School. At an early age, though, Nicholson appears to have moved to Hull where he made his artistic debut, painting miniatures of officers garrisoned there. He was almost entirely self-taught, learning his craft through the close study of artworks in private and public galleries. He subsequently returned to Newcastle where he received many commissions to paint portraits of the old families of Northumberland. In 1808, he began to exhibit at the Royal Academy, continuing to do so until 1822. By 1814, Nicholson, whose mother was a Scot, had moved to Edinburgh where he set up as a miniaturist and painter in oils. Soon, however, he began to specialize in watercolour portraits. Early subjects included the actor Daniel Terry and the poet and novelist James Hogg. In 1818 he began to publish a series of Portraits of Eminent Scotsmen, etched from his own portraits and those of other painters. Besides Scott and Hogg, the subjects included the writers Robert Burns, John Wilson ('Christopher North'), and Lord Jeffrey, the painters Sir Henry Raeburn, the divines Alexander Carlyle and Alexander Cameron, the engineer James Watt, the architect John Playfair, and the song-collector and composer George Thomson...
