Great event in LA! Sold lots of book and made lots of friends. Loved signing alongside Kim McCarty (cover artist on Bodies of Work: Contemporary Figurative Painting) the wonderful photographer Mona Kuhn.
LPDM is featured in the Fall 2013 issue of Passport Magazine and discusses art consulting, collecting and the new book.
Another version of the article is available on Connecticut Magazine’s website.
Here is a look at the cover of my new book which is to be released this May. It is now available for pre-order on amazon and Barnes and Noble.
This book explores American landscape painting today, its relevance in the contemporary art world, and its historic roots. This volume profiles sixty individual living artists whose contributions distinguish important aspects of the genre and address land use, nature appreciation, and ecology through landscape painting. Encompassing every style from traditional realism (with a contemporary edge) to abstraction and non-objectivity, these contemporary artists range from today’s art stars to emerging or regionally recognized talent in the eastern, western, and southwestern regions of the nation. An additional chapter addresses urban landscapes nationally. The range of styles and reputations presented creates an encompassing survey of the trends and enduring elements in this genre of painting and the art market today.
