Traffic Jam in New York City Impressionist Winter Car Scene Oil Painting
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Impressionist New York City traffic jam on a winter day. Cars fill the street and snow fills the air. The city that never sleeps gleaming with patriotic pride. From early childhood to the present, Willett, a natural talent carried on the tradition in the arts. Currently as a painter in the New Hope, Bucks County Impressionist style- he works full time in the mediums of oil on board or canvas, and watercolor. His recent work has been compared to Edward Redfield both in subject and style. Earlier works by Willett are reminiscent of the photographic representational influence of Andrew Wyeth- his revered friend and mentor. Upon reviewing Chris's portfolio that spans 3 decades, one can see the gradual evolution and development of Chris' own unique method and artistic language- he portrays the landscape and daily lives of the people that live and have lived in this locale- spanning the region from Bucks County, New Hope, Lambertville, New Jersey, French Town, Point Pleasant, and such- still the most popular subject matter of local contemporary impressionists today.
Painting measures: 14 x 24 inches.
Frame measures: 17 x 27 inches.
Oil on board signed lower right corner and verso.

Omar Ananias Mixed Media On Canvas
Located in West Palm Beach, US
Large 72”x72” canvas entitled “Lesson” You cause your fault. BIO
The career of Peruvian-Palestinian artist Omar Ananias:
Ananias's artistic career began with sculpture and drawing under the guidance of his mother as his principal mentor, following in the footsteps of his family's long tradition of opera singers, musicians, classical dancers, painters, writers, and other artists. She owns "The House of Nymphs," an exquisite oceanfront artist retreat in Peru with a very unique private collection of artists, including friends, relatives, and Omar's earliest works.
Omar has also trained as a professional contemporary dancer and a yoga/mindfulness teacher since he was fifteen years old and, as a result, sought accreditation as an art therapist.
His work with sexual workers, the disabled, indigenous populations living in the Amazon Rainforest, prisons, and orphanages has brought him well-known recognition. He has worked for more than 20 years with various governments and organizations all over the world.
Techniques and inspiration used by Ananias:
His artwork has drawn inspiration from various sources including: the natural world, his personal encounters with marginalized communities, and the indigenous knowledge of the rain forest. Additional inspiration is drawn from Kris Gebhardt, Viviana Quea, Gam Klutier, Hideaki Yamanobe, and Carola Kastman.
Omar Ananias's love of the natural world also inspires him to create landscape designs and live plant sculptures made of clay, glass, and wood, in addition to his digital portraits and mixed-media abstract paintings on canvas.
He uses many self-made and unconventional instruments/materials for his paintings such as condor feathers, Peruvian gold...

Composition by Mikael Pasternak
By Mikael Pasternak
Located in Berlin, BE
Composition by Mikael Pasternak, 1920.
Gouache on Paper, 62 x 51 cm.
Mikael Pasternak (born 1905 in Riga, died 1967 in Virum) came around 1920 at a very young age to the Academy of Fine Arts in Riga, where he was trained as a painter and draftsman. On a study trip to Paris he met the young Danish girl, Anne Margrethe Petersen from Roskilde and married her in 1927. The couple lived in Riga, where Pasternak was a cartoonist for weeklies and newspapers.
When Pasternak came to Denmark in 1935, he started drawing at Politiken's Sunday supplement "Magasinet", which had its heyday from 1922-1963. The magazine was very popular due to cartoonists such as Aage Sikker Hansen, Arne Ungermann, Ib Andersen and Mikael Pasternak.
In the beginning, he also decorated shop windows. During the war, the family lived in Hulby near Slagelse, and he was a regular cartoonist at Sorø Amtstidende.
Later, the family moved to Copenhagen, and Pasternak became a freelance artist. Among other things. he was a regular illustrator at Svikmøllen from 1946-1954 - and for many years he provided illustrations for Illustreret Familie Journal.
His postcard production is not large; but shortly after he came to Denmark around 1936-37, he made a series of lovely Christmas postcards...

Antique and Vintage Paintings for Sale on 1stDibs
When paired with the perfect frame, the right antique and vintage paintings and other wall decorations can either subtly showcase your personality or steal the show altogether.
The earliest paintings were created on the walls of caves, proving even our ancient ancestors knew that striking artwork is meant to be on display. Cave paintings on an Indonesian island are reportedly older than the earliest cave art in Spain and France, and the figurative paintings back then were produced with inorganic pigments like iron oxide.
Later, the people of Ancient Greece — who learned about art from the Egyptians before them — conceived panel paintings of wax and tempera that were collected and publicly displayed. In the centuries that followed, artists would be commissioned to create large-scale wall murals and frescoed ceilings in sprawling European palaces and in the homes of the aristocracy.
Today, 1stDibs makes it easy for you to celebrate this rich history in your own home. Our collection of paintings includes Art Deco paintings, baroque art and a broad range of other categories. Search by material, period or other attributes to find the right fit — browse an array of 19th century landscape paintings in giltwood frames or abstract oil paintings and portraits made during the 1950s and ‘60s.
An understated contemporary work can complement your space’s color palette without drawing the focus away from the other pivotal design choices you’ve made over the years. Roy Lichtenstein’s Pop art, on the other hand, demands attention with its array of vibrant hues and subjects inspired by popular culture.
Whether you aim to create a gallery in your home or build a single, stunning focal point, you can find what you’re looking for in an extensive inventory of paintings on 1stDibs.
