Item Description
"Poppies" - 9 x 12 Oil on Canvas original art work by renown Maine painter Nancy Baker most recently shown at Mars Hall Gallery in Tenants Harbor - beautifully framed.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
After years in commercial art, Baker shifted to painting directly from nature and creating art purely her own. In the past 20 years she has raised 5 daughters, become an accomplished fine artist and moved to the Maine coast for its tranquility and harsh, yet always dramatic beauty that provides endless inspiration for her work.
Baker paints primarily in oil – fully engaging the medium’s range of intense color to transparent glazes. At times, pastel is her chosen medium for its airy and translucent character. Inspirations include John Singer Sargent, John Twachtman, Winslow Homer, Fairfield Porter and Edward Hooper for their dramatic use of light, inventive compositions and poetic, emotionally charged subjects.
Baker has studied professionally at the Corcoran College of Art and Design, Lyme Art Academy, Yellow Barn Studio, and completed a residency at the Vermont Studio Center.
