Dewey Bradford (1896-1985) Austin Texas Landscape c1920's Oil on Canvas Board.<br>9" x 12" painting in a 14.5" x 17.5" original frame. This painting is about<br>85-100 years old with no significant issues to painting or frame.<br><br>Dewey Bradford was the founder of The Country Store Gallery, Austin, Texas. In<br>1939, Porfirio Salinas began working with Dewey Bradford (1896-1985), one of the<br>great characters of Texas art. Bradford was a second-generation dealer whose<br>family operated the Bradford Paint Company in Austin, where they sold art<br>supplies, framed artwork, restored paintings and hung artists work. Salinas was<br>struggling when he met Bradford, but the older man took the young artist under<br>his wing and began to sell his work reliably, even though the prices that people<br>would pay for a painting were still low due to the lingering effects of the<br>Great Depression.<br><br>Bradford was a born salesman with a gift for storytelling, and truth be told, a<br>bit of embroidery. The relationship between Bradford and Salinas was often<br>rocky, but it was to last the rest of the artists life and give him a modest<br>sense of loyalty and security, things which are all too rare in the art world.<br>While Bradford could be critical of his work, Salinas knew that he had a dealer<br>who encouraged him, believed in him and was not shy about singing his praises to<br>anyone who entered Bradford's store on Guadalupe Street.

Clean frame with minor wear, no wear or<br>issues whatsoever with painting.<br><br>As a school boy, John B. Powers drew pictures of his classmates in the margins<br>of his assignment papers - not always to the delight of his teachers. But some<br>of them recognized and encouraged his early talent, and Powers, who was born in<br>Oklahoma in 1919 and has lived in Texas and the Southwest all his life,<br>successfully combined art with an engineering career.

Eugene Laforet(1884-1955) American Horse Coach and Market Scene American Oil onCanvas. 9" x 12" in a 13.5" x 16.5" frame with no significant issues.Here is an article written about him in New Yorker Magazine on 10/28/1944: THE TALK OF THE TOWN ART FOR EVERYBODY BY EDITH HAMBURGER AND PHILIP HAMBURGER Talk story about Eugene La Foret, the only artist in town who paints in full view of the public in his own store, in which he sells his creations, usually hot off the easel. He owns and runs the Studio Store, on the west side of Lexington Avenue, just below 57th. At the time of our interview he was painting a country lane with a barn in the background, which, he said a man had ordered for Saturday. "One dollar down and nine on delivery," he said. A woman came in and asked if her still life was ready. It was and she paid two fifty for it. His oils range in price from two dollars for miniature still lifes to five hundred for more ambitious canvases. Mr. La Foret received his training in Europe: Berlin, Paris and Munich. Thanks

André Gisson (1921-2003) Parisian Scene oil on canvas. 16" x 20" in a 22" x 26"<br>frame. Fantastic 1960's Oil on linen by a well listed artist. No issues or<br>damage with painting or frame. Estate fresh, one of a pair with similar subject<br>matter obviously purchased at the same time originally. The other is listed<br>separately.<br><br><br>Andre Gisson came to French Impressionism with an unorthodox background. Born<br>Anders Gittelson in Brooklyn New York, the young man recognized that the<br>Impressionist movement favored older French artists who appealed to the upper<br>classes. Given this, he changed his name to Andre Gisson, and adopted a new<br>identity as a Frenchman born in 1910 - actually identifying as an older<br>Frenchman as he wanted to be associated with his famous French forerunners.<br><br><br>Gisson spent his remaining years in the Northeast, living in Westport,<br>Connecticut and traveling to New York City now and again. He exhibited in New<br>York, Washington, California, London, Tokyo, and Paris for more than 40 years.<br>Most of his art focused on landscapes, especially beach scenes like this<br>example. Although not a native Frenchman, his oeuvre certainly demonstrates<br>French influence with loose painterly brushwork that conjures a sense of<br>spontaneity and softly conveys the forms, and an emphasis on light effects.<br><br><br>Interestingly, this painting is accompanied by an old label that reads, "Andree<br>Gisson: Born in Besancon, France 1920, son of an artisan. Worked in the shop of<br>his father and started painting as a hobby. When a prominent Parisian art dealer<br>happened to see his paintings he was enthused about his talent and arranged a<br>showing of his work in his gallery which turned out a great success. From there<br>on he was on his way. His manner is of that 'conservativ' impressionism and his<br>subjects mainly devoted to the Parisian street scene. He still lives in Paris."<br><br><br>I have seen several of Andre Gissons' painting with this label, typically<br>Parisian scenes, all with strong auction results, he originally started with an<br>earlier date of 1899 on the label, then as he started to get more public<br>exposure I guess he decided to change the date to closer to his real birth year.<br>Also the stretchers are made by the same companies of other Gisson paintings<br>I've studies, and the style/quality of the artists work is spot on. I'm 100%<br>sure of the authenticity of these and guarantee it.

After<br>receiving a BFA in 1965, he joined a staff of six artists in a commercial ad<br>agency and as he says: “I learned more in that one year than I did in 5 years in<br>college." A bigger job was offered to him and he spent a brief career as an<br>advertising director in a large department store. A move to Mexico to study art<br>at the Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende was a major influence. The<br>color of Mexico is evident throughout the art he has produced during his career.<br>With an MFA degree under his belt, he received a teaching contract from Hardin<br>Simmons University in Abilene, Texas and later opened the art department at<br>Western Texas College, completing 8 years of experience as a college art<br>instructor.<br><br><br>After spending the summer of 1976 in Egypt on a study grant that he had received<br>from the college, he made the decision to become a full-time professional<br>artist. He came to the Austin area and opened an art gallery and 5 years later<br>moved into the Austin home he has now occupied for over 30 years.<br><br>Warren started his art career by selling his hand pulled stone lithographs and<br>watercolors. In the December 1978 issue of Southwest Art Magazine, he was<br>featured in an 11-page article about his art. He continued to produce<br>watercolors and enjoyed selling his work in art fairs in Texas, Colorado, and<br>California.<br><br>In 1982 he read a magazine article about the need for an adventure artist and<br>began traveling the world using his skills as an artist on scientific<br>expeditions in Peru, Brazil, Venezuela, Spain, and Easter Island, to name a few<br>of the 49 countries stamped in his passport. Warren travels the world with a<br>sketchbook and watercolors to record his impressions of the various cultures and<br>peoples he encounters.<br><br>In the early 90’s he built an 840 sq. ft. painting studio on the back of his<br>wooded property and took up acrylic painting; then he produced hand-pulled<br>serigraphs and soft ground etchings. One of his collectors asked him to create a<br>sculpture for women who had survived breast cancer. The sculpture was completed<br>and he was captivated by working with clay. That was the first bronze he had<br>created since his student days in Mexico. A large bronze commission was awarded<br>to him and a new direction emerged. Today Warren laughs at the thought that for<br>20 years painting in watercolor was all he ever wanted to do. In 2004 he built a<br>second studio dedicated to sculpture.<br><br>Today, Warren and his wife, Kitty Biel, who has a dual career as an independent<br>CPA , Cruise Planner, and Travel Agent, live and work from their spacious home,<br>two studios and sculpture garden in Austin, Texas. You can find Kitty working in<br>her treetop office on the second floor of their home and Warren creating in the<br>sculpture or painting studio.<br>alt<br><br><br>Warren is an accomplished sculptor and painter, and he extends the opportunity<br>for you to visit, explore his galleries/studios and gardens. You will quickly<br>discover that he simply loves to create and recognizes opportunities to do so in<br>all areas of their space, from the kitchen mosaic on the breakfast room floor to<br>the backsplash in the kitchen made from fish fossils he dug in Wyoming. Warren’s<br>passion for creativity and his seemingly boundless energy keep him constantly<br>moving forward in new directions. In addition to creating new paintings and<br>sculpture, Warren’s goals for the immediate future include finding new<br>opportunities for young artists and he has already coordinated an apprentice<br>program with the local high schools. Warren says “I collect friends who in turn<br>collect my art."<br>tw106

André Gisson (1921-2003) Parisian Scene oil on canvas. 16" x 20" in a 22" x 26"<br>frame. Fantastic 1960's Oil on linen by a well listed artist. No issues or<br>damage with painting or frame. Estate fresh, one of a pair with similar subject<br>matter obviously purchased at the same time originally. The other is listed<br>separately.<br><br><br><br>Andre Gisson came to French Impressionism with an unorthodox background. Born<br>Anders Gittelson in Brooklyn New York, the young man recognized that the<br>Impressionist movement favored older French artists who appealed to the upper<br>classes. Given this, he changed his name to Andre Gisson, and adopted a new<br>identity as a Frenchman born in 1910 - actually identifying as an older<br>Frenchman as he wanted to be associated with his famous French forerunners.<br><br><br><br>Gisson spent his remaining years in the Northeast, living in Westport,<br>Connecticut and traveling to New York City now and again. He exhibited in New<br>York, Washington, California, London, Tokyo, and Paris for more than 40 years.<br>Most of his art focused on landscapes, especially beach scenes like this<br>example. Although not a native Frenchman, his oeuvre certainly demonstrates<br>French influence with loose painterly brushwork that conjures a sense of<br>spontaneity and softly conveys the forms, and an emphasis on light effects.<br><br><br><br>Interestingly, this painting is accompanied by an old label that reads, "Andree<br>Gisson: Born in Besancon, France 1920, son of an artisan. Worked in the shop of<br>his father and started painting as a hobby. When a prominent Parisian art dealer<br>happened to see his paintings he was enthused about his talent and arranged a<br>showing of his work in his gallery which turned out a great success. From there<br>on he was on his way. His manner is of that 'conservativ' impressionism and his<br>subjects mainly devoted to the Parisian street scene. He still lives in Paris."<br><br><br><br>I have seen several of Andre Gissons' painting with this label, typically<br>Parisian scenes, all with strong auction results, he originally started with an<br>earlier date of 1899 on the label, then as he started to get more public<br>exposure I guess he decided to change the date to closer to his real birth year.<br>Also the stretchers are made by the same companies of other Gisson paintings<br>I've studies, and the style/quality of the artists work is spot on. I'm 100%<br>sure of the authenticity of these and guarantee it.

Manuel Garza Texas Hill country Oil on canvas landscape painting with wildTurkeys. Original oil on canvas painting 8" x 10" with a 14" x 16" frame. No issues or damage to painting or frame.Growing up in Central Texas, Manuel Garza is well acquainted with Texas hill country scenery. Garza recreates this scenery to perfection, capturing in oil the thick heat, bold sunlight, and cool shade of the state. Garza's work often features not only wildflowers, but quail, pheasant, turkeys, deer, and a host of domestic birds. "I am a landscape artist", he says, "but wildlife is part of that landscape. It adds life." Garza is largely self-taught, although he did attend the Texas School of Fine Arts and studied under Porfirio Salinas and Robert Wood, and cites them as major influences on his style. Manuel Garza's paintings are included in the collection of Lyndon B. Johnson, John Connally, Ben Barnes, and many others throughout the United States. tw74
