Patrick Caulfield Paintings

British, 1936-2005
Patrick Joseph Caulfield was born on 29th January, 1936 in Acton, London. He left Acton Secondary Modern at the age of 15, and secured a position as a filing clerk at Crosse and Blackwell, later transferring to the design studio. At 17, he joined the Royal Air Force at RAF Northwood. He attended evening classes at Harrow School of Art (later adopted into the University of Westminster). From 1956-59 he attended the Chelsea School of Art, and from 1960-1963 the Royal College of Art. During his time at the Chelsea School of Art, Caulfield won two prizes, one of which funded a trip to Crete following his graduation. Caulfield was inspired by the Minoan frescoes and the bright colours of Crete. After leaving the Royal College of Art, where his contemporaries had included David Hockney and Allen Jones, he exhibited at the New Generation show at London’s Whitechapel Gallery, where he was recognised for his associations with the pop art movement. Caulfield sought to shrug off this branding, seeing himself as a “formal artist”. Certainly, within a decade, Caulfield had ventured away from pop art associations, incorporating more detailed, realistic elements into his work; After Lunch (1975) is an early example of the realist-figurative style he developed over his career. Caulfield later returned to his earlier, more stripped down style of painting, and often – such as in Still Life: Autumn Fashion – combined elements of the two. Caulfield was nominated for the Turner Prize for his show The Artist’s Eye at the National Gallery in London in 1987. He began to paint to commission around this date; notably designing the stained glass window for The Ivy restaurant, a 12 metre carpet for the British Council’s headquarters in Manchester and set designs for Part Game and Rhapsody at the Royal Opera House. In 1996 his solo gallery at the Claudine Papillon in Paris was highly acclaimed, as was his solo exhibition at the Hayward Gallery in London in 1999. In 1996 he was made a CBE and in 2010, Caulfield was included in an exhibition at the Yale Centre for British Art entitled The Independent Eye: Contemporary British Art from the Collection of Samuel and Gabrielle Lurie. Recent exhibitions have included the 2006 solo exhibition at the Tate Liverpool, the 2006 Special Summer Exhibition show at the Royal Academy (RA) London, and a solo exhibition of his prints at the Alan Cristea Gallery. In 2013 the Tate Britain held an exhibition featuring work from throughout his career. His work is collected in the British Council, London Tate Gallery, Victoria and Albert Museum, Dallas Museum of Art, Harry N Abrams Collection in New York and the National Gallery of Australia, among others.

By Alexis Portilla

Located in Los Angeles, CA

This is a beautiful oil painting by Alexis Portilla, using a palette of jewel colors, bold brushwork and pictographs to create an atmospheric piece. Color, lines and shapes that resemble pictographs and vessels convey symbolism. Vessels are a recurring theme in Portilla's work as symbolic of the potential for the ability to hold and receive. Influenced by the emotion of artistic expression in music, poetry and literature, the artist finds bold expression in color, lines and shapes that resemble pictographs, and texture. Oregon 47 x 65 in. Oil on Canvas Signed on verso Ready to hang: Yes Frame: Not applicable Materials: Oil paint, canvas, wood stretchers Alexis Portilla holds an MFA from Columbia University (1990) and a BFA from Pratt Institute. His work is in more than 250 private collections worldwide and in many international public and corporate collections including The New York Public Library, Harvard University, Pepsi Co., Warner Music Group, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Penn State University, Norwest Venture Partners, and Mikasa Corporation. He has exhibited internationally at venues from New York to Hong Kong, including the Grand Rapids Art Museum in Michigan, Hofstra University Museum in New York, and Monmouth Museum in New Jersey. Alexis Portilla's large scale pieces like Anemone, Black Elk, Thor Twins, Tokyo, Chromatic Fantasy are spectacular pieces in terms of the atmospheric brushwork, colors and textures. His bold linear lines, use of symbols, pictographs and strong colors create atmospheric abstracts. “Alexis is a poet in space and a painter of original feeling… He conveys a constant sense of expansion.” Artist Will Barnet (1911-2012), June 2007 “Using simple forms and creating swathes of rich texture, Alexis Portilla builds atmospheric abstract paintings that convey a sense of time having passed. Brushy areas of color suggest the indeterminacy of memory, while bold linear forms speak for the present." - Meredith Mendelsohn, Art News magazine review The artist Alexis Portilla obtained his Masters of Fine Arts at Columbia University in 1990, and his BFA at the noted Pratt Institute. The artist has shown in group and solo exhibitions. His works have been commissioned by major corporations, universities and for private collections. These pieces and others are available for viewing in Los Angeles.

"House on Whidbey Island, Washington" Contemporary Oil painting 30" x 40"

By George Gallo

Located in Fredericksburg, VA

House on Whidbey Island, Washington captures the quiet beauty of one of the Pacific Northwest's most iconic landscapes. Signed lower right, George Gallo presents a secluded farmhouse nestled among towering evergreens, its warm architecture emerging from a field illuminated by soft afternoon light. The expansive meadow, painted with lively strokes of green and gold, creates a striking contrast against the cool shadows of the surrounding forest, while Gallo's expressive brushwork gives the entire scene a sense of movement and life. The composition evokes the peaceful rhythm of rural Washington, where open fields, dense woodlands, and changing light create an atmosphere of timeless tranquility. Internationally recognized for his acclaimed career as an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and director, George Gallo has also become one of today's most accomplished plein air painters. His work reflects a deep understanding of light, atmosphere, and composition, blending the traditions of American Impressionism with a bold contemporary style that is uniquely his own.
