Cecil Crosley Bell Paintings

American, 1906-1970

Cecil Crosley Bell was born on July 15, 1906, in Seattle. Bell studied printmaking at the Art Institute of Chicago before moving to New York to study at the Art Students League with John Sloan. Bell remained in New York, eventually settling in Staten Island with his wife. Most of his paintings depict famous locations around New York City. Bell died in New York in 1970. Largely unknown during his lifetime, in 1973 a retrospective of his work was held at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.

"Misty City", Oil Painting
By Christopher Clark
Located in Denver, CO
Christopher Clark's (US based) "Misty City" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts orange and green hued clouds arching over a water and city lights Bio/artist statement: Christopher has been an artist since early childhood, when he would watch Bob Ross on PBS and mimic the famed oil painter’s art with crayons. He considers himself a self-educated artist, with his studies ranging from personal training with contemporary masters, to classical academic art technique, with much inspiration from 19th Century art and the Impressionist Movement. Christopher lived in Italy for a time, immersing himself in Italian culture and art, which continues to influence his painting. His fan base has grown considerably since his return to the US, gaining the attention of Lucasfilm and Marvel Fine Art, which both signed him as an officially licensed artist in 2016. Other clients include George Lucas, Major League Baseball, Louisville Slugger...
