John Clymer Art

British, American, b. 1932
An impressionist landscape painter, who until recently unfortunately was often confused with the American illustrator and painter John Ford Clymer (1907-1989). Our "John Clymer" has also been known to sign works as "John Moris" and now as "John Roby." Until the internet helped to distinguish the two artists, the younger Clymer's works were pretty much sold on their own merits as attractive, impressionistic, colorful decorative paintings. Now, happily, biographical information has become available on him, enabling him to emerge from the misattribution era when he was mixed up with the American illustrator. Clymer was born in Brighton, England in 1932. Early on his artistic talents were recognized and his father enrolled him in art education classes at the Royal Academy. In recent years, he has become recognized in England, the Continent and the USA for his skill in creating impressionist landscapes and coastal scenes.

Located in Stockholm, SE

Axel Zachrison was a Swedish painter known for his landscapes from Dalsland. Born in Tydje, Dalsland, Zachrison's artistic journey was shaped by his experiences at sea and his encounters with influential artists such as Otto Hesselbom, a relative on his mother's side.

The sky, painted in shades of white and gray, features distinct lines around the clouds add a sense of movement and depth to the scene, reminiscent of Hesselbom's painting technique. In the background, we can see some blue mountains, their majestic presence contributing to the overall sense of grandeur. And In the left part, the viewer can see some land illuminated by the warm rays of the afternoon sun. The vibrant colors of orange, green, and yellow bring the landscape to life, infusing it with a sense of vitality and serenity.

By John Clymer

Located in New York, NY

A masterful oil painting depicting a countryside village scene with figures by British American artist John Clymer. As an Impressionist painter, he was known for his pastoral landscapes depicting scenes from daily life; notably provincial French towns. He also created numerous views of city life during his stays in Paris. This piece is an excellent example of the works produced during the 1950's with use of a rich color pallet and layers of paint giving this work such a stunning representation of country life. The way he uses flecks of light dashed onto the canvas creates a joy for the viewer to experience. This painting is signed by the artist lower right and it comes comes housed in a beautiful gold tone wood carved frame with linen liner and hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed. Art measures 12 x 16 inches Frame measures 17.5 x 21.5 inches John Clymer was born near Brighton, England in 1932. At a very early age, he exhibited definite artistic talents. His father immediately recognized his son's gift and enrolled him at the royal art academy. John was soon swept by the serenity and tranquility of the impressionists. His favorites ranged from Monet to Pissaro and Sisley; eventually leading to an awakening interest in the magnificent Turners at Tate galleries. Clymer's serene yet colorful canvasses ably depict his love for the southern english coastline. Demand for his canvasses is very high in the United States and the European continent while still relatively dormant in his home country.
