Located in San Francisco, CA

Daniel Stookey Lutz was born in Decatur, Illinois on July 7, 1906 to Florence Stookey and Samuel Milton Lutz, who owned a music store in Decatur.

He was twenty-three when the stock market fell in the fall of 1929. Fortunately for Lutz, he had already commenced his studies at Art Institute of Chicago (AIC) when the panic of Black Thursday occurred.
After four years of studies at the AIC, Dan Lutz...

Gold with Quadrants
By Irene Zweig
Located in Burlingame, CA
Geometric and serene in its complexity - abstract contemporary painting created with impeccable attention to detail by deconstructing original watercolors into dime sized triangular cut outs and then affixing them to a wooden panel. Artist Irene Zweig rearranges the media into a new and unique design, where the eye interprets the original message as subliminal; with the components of it still present, and the result is one of contemplative balance and harmony. Fine art, science and mathematics blend in Zweig's intellectually curious and aesthetically sound works that beautifully relate to other eclectic works.

Green Valley Spring
By Catherine McCargar
Located in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
A place with the name Green Valley lives up to its name in this painting. The impressionistic handling of the subject gives room for the imagination of the viewer to draw on personal memories of the joys and promises of spring. This piece is painted to the edges of the paper on heavyweight watercolor paper. It will need a frame for display.
About the Artist
Catherine McCargar created her first work of art at five years old, a snowman drawn on blue construction paper. A group of artists invited her to try plein air painting and she fell in love. In her eyes, the time spent composing and recording in the open air is invaluable to breathe life into a painting. Catherine currently lives in California and loves tending her garden and being creative in the kitchen when she;s not painting. Fun fact: she occasionally writes stories for her granddaughter with accompanying ink drawings; she recently wrote a series called Baby Owl Learns to Fly.
