Walk by or come in to see this wonderful painting

Walk by or come in to see this wonderful painting in our Lake Street window. "Akaroa Sound” acrylic and oil on panel 30×40 inches. “The landscape paintings of Jenny ML Wantuch are quiet evocations of place that derive from Impressionism, Fauvism and Abstract Expressionism. Her work continues the Bay Area Figurative tradition, which synthesized traditional subject matter—figures, landscapes, still life’ —with painterly impulse and improvisation. …” Review by DeWitt Cheng. Visit our website avenue12gallery.com/jenny-wantuch for pricing and more paintings. We have a variety of artwork by other artists in the gallery and online. Open most afternoons and weekends.

We are delighted to have Anna Sidana’s beautiful

We are delighted to have Anna Sidana’s beautiful "California Poppies” in our Lake Street window. Oil on canvas 52″ x 64″. For this large complex abstract landscape Anna states, “Every spring, native poppies cloak the countryside in California and take me back to my childhood, reminding me of blissful summer days, playing at our family farm. These brightly colored poppies are reminiscent of the oranges and yellows of the colors of Rajasthan, India. The delicate, feathery poppies transport me to the dusty sand dunes of my country of birth, while connecting me to the present and to my adopted home and country, that I have come to love.”
