Traffic Jam in New York City Impressionist Winter Car Scene Oil Painting
By Christopher Willett
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. Christopher Willett...
