About the Item
Ron Childer's "The Meeting" is an oil painting on thick paper . The painting offers a highly graphic work, borrowing some influences from cubism and semi-abstraction while remaining figurative. The artist replaces traditional perspective with an art form that suggests space and atmosphere through the simple relationship of lines and colored surfaces, depicting a group of women seated together at a table.
Childer's works are a series of experiments with painting, each piece showcasing a particular approach and technique. Colors fill the spaces delimited by contours. The women are depicted in a natural, relaxed state, with four of them shown in profile and a three-quarter view around a table, engaged in their shared experience, while the fifth one, painted with a ponytail, represents perhaps the youthful energy within the crew. The artist's skills in utilizing concise and precise lines shine through, capturing not only the overall demeanor of the women but also intricacies like their unique hairstyles and even a jeweled ear.
Ron Childers is an American painter and an art teacher who spent 50 years with his teacher, partner (and ultimately husband) Richard Proctor. Together they were devoted partners in life as well as in art. They moved to Whidbey Island in the 1970s. Starting in 1983, they owned and operated the Childers Proctor Gallery in Langley where they promoted and encouraged many new talents. They also enjoyed extensive international travel. The two moved to Palm Springs in 1999 and for many years, split their time between the California desert and the Pacific Northwest.
