Philip Buller Figurative Paintings
American, b. 1954
Philip Buller was born to American diplomat parents in Delhi, India in 1954, but spent his youth mostly in northern Virginia and his ancestral home of New England. Buller moved to northern California in the late 80ʼs. He received his BA in Painting and Drawing from Sonoma State University in 1992. Upon receiving his MFA from California College of Art in 1994, he taught private lessons and art classes at Santa Rosa Junior College for 10 years. During this time Buller spent each summer in the Mediterranean, teaching painting retreats in Italy and Greece. His work reflects his respect and admiration for the Renaissance and Baroque masters while including references to photography, printmaking and other more contemporary processes.
In 2006 Buller moved to Galiano Island in British Columbia where, in addition to continuing his evolving painting practice, he has built a home and studios for himself and his wife, Janet Adler, the noted teacher of the Discipline of Authentic Movement. Buller is represented in the UK, Canada, and the US. His work is in public and private collections.to

"Jumpers" Contemporary Figurative Abstract Oil on Linen on Panel Framed Painting
By Philip Buller
Located in Baltimore, MD
"Jumpers" is a framed oil on linen on panel work by Philip Buller, depicting abstracted figures engaged in ice-skating and skiing. Buller's painterly approach to these Wintery subjects, as well as the repetitive, echoing composition evokes the nostalgia of vintage home movies or layered photography film. The vibrant, contrasting colors and figures in mid-jump create playful tension and a heightened sense of movement.
This piece has an artist-supplied black frame that is in "as-is" condition. Pricing includes the pictured frame. The unframed dimensions are 65 X 80 inches.
