About the Item

Realistic, Modern Still-Life Painting of Watermelon and a Pine Forest Made is 2022, by Berkshire based artist Ann Getsinger oil on linen 11 x 14 inches 16 x 13 inches in a walnut floater frame Signed, lower left Ann Getsinger is an oil painter with a home and studio is in the rural Berkshire town of New Marlborough, Massachusetts. After high school she studied at Paier School of Art in New Haven, CT, and at the San Francisco Art Institute, before settling permanently in western Massachusetts. Getsinger’s vanitas inspired works bring flora and fauna to life and narrate their symbolic internal experience. Ambiguous light sources and vibrant colors pull viewers into these hyper-realistic still lives to marvel at expressive details and imaginative compositions. Ann Getsinger’s oil paintings have been described as ‘realism with a twist.’ Real objects are placed in locations drawn from memory and imagination, in locations and circumstances which materialize as the work unfolds, forming paintings which combine careful planning with free-falling. The artists powerful connection to place is evident as most of the backgrounds show either the Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts or the mid-coast area of Maine, her favorite places to live and paint. Classically trained in traditional realist techniques, the artist applies those skills to reflect both visible and invisible worlds. Her many visual art influences include the work of Magritte and other surrealists, N.C., Andrew, and Jamie Wyeth, Julio Larraz, and Gregory Gillespie.
