Roger Henry Figurative Paintings
b. 1965
Roger Henry (born 1965)
Roger Henry lives in Los Angeles and travels the world for his clients. As a serious fine artist, Henry likes to take as much time as possible getting to know his subjects and explore the settings and effect of light throughout the day. Thus it is not surprising that his clientele include luminaries in Los Angeles and collectors in Europe, South America, Australia and Hong Kong.
Born and raised in a small town in Kansas, Henry attended the University of Kansas on an art scholarship. He received an honors award in Art History; a special mention at the International Design Conference in Aspen, Colorado, in 1986; and a scholarship to study abroad in France in 1987. He graduated in 1988. Henry began his career on the West Coast as an Art Director for film and TV. His fascination with people and his love for dogs led him to begin his journey into portraiture in 1992. Henry finds the boundaries of art to be “as limitless as the colors in a Kansas sunset.”
Henry’s paintings amaze with his realistic and vibrant handling of his subjects. His animals as well as humans have an intense quality. Hair, leaves and fabric come to life with his brushstrokes and his use of color and illumination. His earlier works were influenced by the Ash Can School; he often tells a story with his paintings. In an early work, a dog is sitting on his master’s bed, sad that his owner has packed a suitcase; in another canine family portrait an alpha and omega dog are sitting one on top of the other, very content with their arrangement. One of his original clients, Paige Powell, a curator for Andy Warhol and editor for Interview Magazine, commissioned Henry to paint her dog, Sherlock, in bed reading Trollope. More recently Henry did a series of paintings of Dina, an Australian Kelpie mix, standing in the desert documenting the passing hours with her shadow on the sand.

Notre-Dame de Paris, Oil on Canvas by Henri André Martin
Located in Saint Amans des cots, FR
Oil on canvas by Henri-André Martin (1918-2004), France, ca.1960. Notre-Dame de Paris. With frame: 79.3x 60.3 cm - 31.2x23.7 inches. Without frame: 54x 73 cm - 21.3x28.7 inches. 20P format. Signed lower left "Henri A. Martin" (see photo).
Born in Lyon in 1918, the child and the adolescent Henri-André Martin spent his youth in Saint-Étienne, his father, Edme Martin, first installed as a practicing doctor in Lyon, having been appointed doctor of the anti-tuberculosis dispensaries of the Loire.
During his first years of studying medicine in Lyon, he nevertheless enrolled in the Beaux-Arts. Appointed hospital intern upon his return from captivity in 1942, he ended his medical career as director of the otolaryngology university clinic at Édouard-Herriot hospital. But painting was his passion.
Painting was for Henri-André Martin the way of expressing his feelings. By nature very reserved and of an extreme modesty that many took for coldness, it was what allowed him to express his strong artistic sensitivity and, his pictorial periods are as many reflects of his anxieties, of his hopes, of his joys. At every period of his life, wherever he goes and whenever he has a moment, he paints gouaches, often of small size, but sometimes of larger size. He also paints beaches that have been compared to those of Boudin. Their invoice shows, however, that this figure is only appearance and that in fact, these beaches made of water, sky and sand, readily dispense with the motif, the work of the material seeming to have more importance. as the subject. Despite the fact that until the 1970s he painted "on the ground", his canvases remain far removed from the anecdote. Often harsh like the landscapes of Provence, the Parisian walls which express concern, or the railways, the switch tracks which suggest, in ocher and black, all the embarrassment of choice. We find the same nostalgic gravity in the canvases of the carcasses of boats which, as his friend Louis Pons later wrote, "seem to die of immobility" or in the canvases of Venice, or the landscapes of Eygalières.
In the following years, his painting became simpler, more synthetic, such as these landscapes with tortured almond trees, black and gnarled olive trees, plane trees standing out against the ocher sky of the dawn of Provence, in winter. These are also the canvases of Hamburg in the dough becomes heavier, the colors darken, marking all the gravity of the port landscapes. Workshop work gradually takes precedence over motif painting.
The pivotal period coincides with that of his work on the olive tree, during which he leads the realization of the "Trunks", a collection of six lithographic plates, of the book L'olivier comprising many lithographs and serigraphs, but also texts. poetic and numerous paintings. He then became passionate about everything related to the olive tree (literature, painting, traditions, history), but also to the tree itself, its thousand-year-old history, its poetry, its symbols, but also its culture, its size. oil production...
