California Expressionist, Richard Van Wingerden (or “Van” as he is best known) was a native of Rotterdam, Holland who made his artistic mark on the West Coast of California. Van devoted most of his life to the arts, especially painting. He was passionate about helping other artists and he took an interest in mentoring his friend and colleague, Ross Curtis. Together Van, along with Ross and Eileen Curtis, started a regular artist group at Curtis’ Sausalito property. This group is now known as “The Sausalito Teahouse Group”.
Van was deeply inspired by the beauty of the Northern California landscape, often painting (in watercolors and oils) directly in the outdoors. His California Expressionist style can be clearly seen in these landscapes. The images are less of an exact representation of the scene, and are more of a “push-pull” investigation into color, texture, brushstrokes and form, at times moving towards abstraction. In the 1960s, Van would move from Expressionism into an exploration of Abstract Expressionism.
