Charles Burdick Art

American, 1924-2016
Charles Edward Burdick (1924 - 2016) was born in Providence, RI, Charles Burdick first won a scholarship at the age of 9 to attend a class at the Rhode Island School of Design. Following service in WWII, he returned to RISD, but transferred after a year to Art Students League in New York. His instructors included Reginald Marsh, Will Barnett and Edwin Dickinson. In the 1960s, he began to summer in Provincetown, MA. In 1966, he moved to Wellfleet on Cape Cod, and established his studio there. He supported his family of five by selling his artwork from his studio and in juried, largely outdoor shows around the country. Since 1976, he has wintered on the east coast of Florida and shown at shows there. He has won numerous awards over the years, but he eschewed working with a gallery and did little publicity, preferring to sell his painting directly to the collector. Recently, his daughter established a gallery to display his art in a more formal setting. Animals have always been a favorite subject since the 1950s, particularly horses and bulls. In the 1980s he produced a series of Peaceable Kingdoms and Noah's Ark paintings as well as circus paintings. Late in the 1980s, he did a medieval series based on the Unicorn. Most recently, he has been painting playful, imaginary paintings of famous artists working in their studios, often using the palette and stylistic references of the subject.

Realist oil painting by Moses Soyer. The artist was often quoted as saying, "My message is people." He was always looking to find who the person within was. Soyer and his brothers Raphael and Isaac were all successful artists. Moses Soyer began his art studies at the Cooper Union and National Academy of Design, the Education Alliance, and eventually moved to the Ferrer Art School in Harlem to study with teachers who promoted the Ashcan style of painting. This style promoted unglamorized representations of everyday life and a focus on social realism. When many artists shifted to abstract expressionism Soyer...

Seated Female Nude Oil Painting – Spanish Figurative Expressionist 20th Century
Seated Female Nude Oil Painting – Spanish Figurative Expressionist 20th Century

Seated Female Nude Oil Painting – Spanish Figurative Expressionist 20th Century

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Artist: Francisco Abad Doblas (Spain, b. 1933) Title: Seated Female Nude Date: 1975 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 65 × 81 cm (25.6 × 31.9 in) Signature: Signed upper right Framing: Unframed Condition: Very good. Firm canvas and stable paint layer with visible impasto. No apparent restorations. Period: 20th Century A striking seated female nude executed in oil on canvas by Spanish painter Francisco Abad Doblas. This powerful figurative composition presents a seated woman rendered with confident, textured brushwork and a vibrant chromatic palette. Flesh tones are constructed through layered strokes of pinks, ochres, greens and blues, creating both movement and depth. The cool-toned background enhances the warmth of the figure, reinforcing anatomical structure and spatial contrast. The painting reflects the Spanish post-impressionist figurative tradition of the mid-to-late 20th century, combining academic discipline with expressive painterly freedom. Particular attention is given to the modeling of the face and hands, demonstrating strong draftsmanship and studio practice. With its balanced 65 × 81 cm format and strong visual presence, the work functions as a statement piece within a refined contemporary interior or a collection focused on European figurative art. Francisco Abad Doblas (Spain, born 1933) is a Spanish figurative painter active during the second half of the 20th century. His work focuses on traditional genres such as landscape, still life and the human figure, developed through direct observation and a loose post-impressionist brushstroke. His paintings circulated through Spanish private galleries during the 1970s and 1980s and continue to appear in European secondary market sales, appreciated by collectors of academic and figurative Spanish art.
