Art Consultant Spotlight: “Fall Landscape” Gilbert F. Neumann

"Fall Landscape" by Gilbert F. Neumann, oil 9"x 12" $1,600  


 As I view Gilbert F. Neumann’s dominant bold pumpkin and gold colors, I can’t help but to want to reach for a scarf.  Above, a grey sky emerges from the full foliage and a wispy white cloud floats into the horizon as if to say good-bye to warmer days, welcoming the coming chill in the air. The trees breathe a sigh of relief from the long hot Texas summer as they begin to release their leaves to the still green ground.  The fence disappears into the horizon blurring the focal point, which represents the transition that is the fall season.

"Hidden Falls"

-----Center point compositions are usually banal and uninteresting. Why spoon-feed a compositional array of visual ingredients to the layman or self-appeased viewer?

But, Hold that Thought!…..In Charles Pabst’s new Giclee releases of his current art market collections; “Hidden Falls” stands out as an eloquently whispered soliloquy of sensational thought. This simple arrangement of balanced tree line landscape novelty forces one to question the innocent single point perspective that drives your eye straight into the timidly tiered waterfall. I can regard Pabst of being a “Seasonal Shah” of impressionistic autumn and fall majesty.  His T. Kinkade-esque approach to sensational landscape paintings opt for a simplistic manner of understanding and appreciations. The foreground, middle and back all line up in a proper pattern of textbook elegance. Overly straightforward this type of aesthetic is the most basic and uncomplicated way for all of us to appreciate talent and intent.

However, audacious are his choices of color palette; over-emphasizing the decision for gallant golds, tantalizing tangerines, boisterous bolds of seasonal hues- reflective of specific geographical locations (mostly Arizona).

With a center of ambient sunlight blanketing the “v”- shaped core of the painting, Pabst relies on one elegant but conceptual line of light filled intensity to draw you in. A mystical moment of perfect celestial swathe of warm and inviting sunlit aubade caresses you as you enter this aura of painterly sensuality.

“Hidden Falls” harks back to time spent alone with his beloved wife exploring unbeaten paths for the perfect hidden treasures. Mission accomplished Mr. Pabst. Limited to an edition of only 50, this hidden gem in the new releases has a small print edition that makes for a coveted acquisition.

Sunlit Seclusion

M.S. Park

Sunlit Seclusion

36 x 48

Oil

$3,000

M.S. Park was born on August 11, 1951 in Eum-Sung, Chung-Buk Province, South Korea. It wasn’t until he was in his mid 20’s did he gain a mature style and aesthetic; having previously been a hobbyist painter. Park’s depiction of landscape paintings have routinely focused on the changing of the seasons- a crisp autumn air is intuitively depicted through golden leaves with rich red accents; floating effortlessly down into a bubbling brook or heavily down-trodden and worn pathway.

Sunlit Seclusion is a prime example of the ominous riddle, “If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around to hear it… Does it make a sound?”  Park has illustrated a perfect time and space landscape continuum; we hear the gurgle of the water, the swaying of the leaves in the trees, feel the heat of the sun peaking through the canopy- yet we feel a chill. But is that all happening somewhere and there is not a soul in sight?  Such a reclusive environment does exist in the mind of M.S. Park.  Littered leaves, radiant glows, geodetic substrates, algae adorned water, and various other grandeur environmental identifications coagulate to form a lavishly illustrious landscape that only M. S. Park could execute.
