Jerry Malzahn Art

American, 1946-2019

Jerry Malzahn, a talented landscape artist, was born in Stuttgart, Arkansas on September 30, 1946, moving to Texas as a young adult. He earned a bachelor of arts degree from the University of North Texas and founded Malzahn Landscape Company where he currently serves as president. In 1994, at the age of 48, Malzahn began to devote himself to landscape painting. He garnered enthusiastic and immediate response by collecting the first prize for landscape paintings with figures at the l996 Texas State Fair. Malzahn displayed his art in two successful shows at the Wild Gallery in 1996 and David Dike Fine Art in 2003 in Dallas. In 2003, he was selected for membership in the prestigious Salmagundi Club in New York. In 2005, the city of Richardson, Texas held an exhibit of Malzahn’s paintings alongside the personal collection of Jerry and Lyla. The paintings included works by Asher Durand, Díaz de la Peña, Julian Onderdonk and William Keith along with selected landscapes by Malzahn. The exhibit was covered by American Art Review and was viewed by over a thousand visitors. Malzahn’s landscapes are displayed in important private, corporate and public collections in Dallas and Fort Worth, New York and Annapolis, Maryland in the U.S. Naval Academy Museum. In 2008 Malzahn was selected to paint a Christmas ornament for the White House Christmas Tree. Malzahn’s brilliant landscapes pay homage to a wide range of 19th-century landscape masters. His heroic, western landscapes echo the grand panoramas of Thomas Moran and Albert Bierstadt in their scope and strongly articulated perspectives. His meadow scenes carry the delicate and poetic subtlety of the French Barbizon School, particularly the dream-like atmosphere of Corot, Daubigny and Harpignies. While noticing the influence of these artists, one ultimately sees the marks of a highly talented individual hand, sensitive to the nuances of how light and dark effect the mood of nature yet impassioned to capture the great breadth of America’s most exalted scenery. Malzahn died on June 12, 2019, in Texas.

Light Pillar - Atmospheric Optical Phenomenon, Framed Oil Painitng

By Jeff Aeling

Located in Chicago, IL

In this larger treatment of the light-pillar phenomenon, Aeling demonstrates his mastery of night atmospherics. The bright vertical beam—pure, white, and nearly architectural—cuts through a heavy indigo sky, reflecting the artist’s fascination with moments when the environment becomes momentarily structured by light. His winters in cold climates provided ample opportunities to see such displays, and he painted them with the same meditative intensity he applied to Hawaiian sunsets and surf. In all these subjects, Aeling returned to a central theme: the sky as an evolving organism, capable of sudden, transcendent gestures. Jeff Aeling Light Pillar oil on panel 14h x 10w in 35.56h x 25.40w cm JAE034 Jeff Aeling (1958–2025): The Sky Remembers Through Jeff Aeling’s eyes, the landscape becomes a world shaped as much by air as by earth. In works such as North of Las Vegas, NM and Pond Near St. Cloud, MN, he balances the quiet structure of plains and wetlands with skies alive in constant motion. His mastery of atmosphere is unmistakable in Light Pillars (2023) and Light Pillar (2023), where rare optical events turn night into architecture. Even intimate scenes like Crabapple, Dogwoods, and Red Bud find their emotional power under skies that lend the land its shifting character. Aeling’s winters in Hawaii deepened his sensitivity to movement and weather. Surfing taught him to read the rhythm of the ocean, a knowledge reflected in Wave, Kauai (2018), where a breaking wave becomes a luminous wall of force. In Volcano (2023), he channels the islands’ elemental drama, linking fire, vapor, and sky through the same atmospheric vocabulary found in his plains paintings. Though often compared to American landscape painters like Church and Bierstadt, Aeling’s work engages modernity in subtle ways. He began his paintings with the camera—driving for hours to capture a fleeting alignment of cloud, light, and terrain. In the studio, he removed all traces of people or infrastructure, preserving the landscape as a pure, uncontrollable presence. This blend of tradition and contemporary practice allowed him to honor the past while speaking clearly to the present. Together, these works—whether a crashing wave, a blooming tree, a volcanic plume, or a column of winter light—form a portrait of the world as Aeling experienced it: vast, luminous, and alive with change. The Sky Remembers is both a tribute and an invitation to see the land with the reverence he carried throughout his life.
