Thelma Appel Still-life Paintings
American, b. 1940
A co-founder of the Bennington College Summer Painting Workshop, Thelma Appel is a representational and abstract painter who has been working and teaching for more than six decades. Most recently, she was subject of a 50-year career survey (October, 2019 -February 2020) at the Brattleboro Museum in Vermont, entitled Thelma Appel: Abstract/Observed curated by Mara Williams. She was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, raised in Darjeeling, India and educated in London, England, at St. Martin's School of Art (now Central St. Martins) and Hornsey College of Art before emigrating to the United States in the 1960s. Her work has been exhibited in numerous venues, including the Bennington Museum, the Berkshire Museum in North Adams, Mass., the Children's Museum of the Arts in New York City, the Mattatuck Museum, the Brattleboro Museum, the Milwaukee Art Museum, the Robert Hull Fleming Museum at the University of Vermont and the University of Pennsylvania Fine Arts Gallery. In 1974 she was awarded a YADDO Fellowship, and in 1975, Thelma Appel, along with the painter Carol Haerer, co-founded the Bennington College Summer Painting Workshop, where many distinguished painters of the day, both abstract and representational, conducted master classes. Among them were Neil Welliver, John Button, Alice Neel, Larry Poons, Friedel Dzubas, Stanley Boxer, Elizabeth Murray and Doug Ohlson – a program that continued until 1980. She has also taught drawing at Parsons School of Design, painting at Southern Vermont College and at the University of Connecticut. Appel’s work has been presented at Art on Paper, Texas Contemporary Art Fair , Market Art & Design in the Hamptons, Art Expo, and Art New York art fairs. Appel’s Times Square series of paintings was awarded a solo exhibition by the Chashama Foundation in their Chelsea exhibition space, and selected by the curator of the Port Authority exhibition program in Manhattan, and her work has been exhibited at the Sager Braudis Gallery (now Sager Reeves), Alpha 137 Gallery, the Fourt Points Gallery in Connecticut and other galleries nationwide.to

“Ocean Flowers“, Broad Leaves and Pink Flowers of a Water Plant under Sun Light
By Andrée de Frémont
Located in Clermont-Ferrand, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
In a square 70cm x 70cm, a jug full of flowers offers the necessary verticality to this subject. Against an ocean blue background stand out the broad leaves of a water plant and its pink flowers. The water here is represented by the dominant blues, however, a yellow bloom and spots of gold powder are a reminder of the sun.
