Charles HEWITT Composite Painting "Black Rooster" The title of Charles Hewitt's composite painting "Black Rooster" refers to betrayal. In this very new composite work, Hewitt first paints a small oil on canvas. He then makes a grid enlargement of the image in many pieces. These acetate rectangles are stitched together on a sewing machine. The result is a "real" painting and a sort of "false" expanded play on that painting. The side by side impact is fascinating. Hewitt's work is represented in major collections such as : The MetropolitanM useum of Art (NYC), The Museum of Modern Art (NYC), The Library of Congress (DC), MIT--List Visual Arts Center (MA), The Brooklyn Museum & Chase Manhattan Bank (NYC). Buyer pays shipping and insurance. View more Hewitt graphics and paintings for sale. To learn more about the artist and his shorthand icons, see Charles Hewitt studio visit.

John Clem CLARKE Painting "Ship in Fog" John Clem Clarke uses familiar objects as subjects for his paintings. Clarke is usually grouped with the photo-realists. While technically accurate, (he does work from combinations of photos using realistic images), this description fails to convey how much Clarke likes to play with paint and traditional painting concepts. In "Ship in Fog" there is a tension between the cheerful colors and the perilous situation. The looming ship harks back to posters from the glamorous era of ocean crossings on the Normandy. Clarke has an extensive museum collection, public commissions and auction record pedigree. (Recent auction prices range from about $2000-$18,000). The Museum of Modern Art (New York), Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Whitne y Museum of American Art (New York) and the Los Angeles County Museum all have examples of his work in their collections.
