Ann's work over this period, from 1975 to present, includes drawings in diverse media and paintings in oils and acrylic, and water colors. Although her major love is landscapes, the human figure and still life are inspirational subjects as well. She has worked in art in her home in Sandwich, MA as well as Provincetown, Santa Fe, New Mexico, San Miguel D'AIIende, Mexico, Italy, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam and any location of inspiration, where she has produced a significant body of work. Her paintings and drawings exhibit a rare vitality and bold strength in drawing and use of color. Not an abstractionist, yet the design, pattern, and her use of media imparts an abstract, virility to her work. Since her senior thesis, "Landscapes of the mind", she continued to pursue interest in external landscapes as a vehicle to express interior landscapes expressed in personal symbols. Recent works include drawings and paintings in graphite, acrylic and oil paintings and monotypes. Ann has continued to purse her work in external landscapes as a vehicle to express interior landscapes, in personal symbols. Her recent focus has been a series of Buddhist monks. A recent trip to Asia has clearly influenced her recent work in monotype as well.
Ann Solomon, painter and visual artist, from Newton, MA and educated at the Rhode Island School of Design and Fine Arts, BFA 1970.

- Whimsical Day in the Park by Harry BilsonLocated in Larchmont, NYHarry Bilson (Icelandic, b. 1948) Untitled (Day in the Park), c. 21st Century Oil on canvas 17 1/2 x 23 in. Framed: 19 1/2 x 25 x 1 1/2 in. Signed lower left: Bilson Bilson was born in Reykjavik, Iceland. At the age of five he moved to London, England, speaking Icelandic rather more fluently than English. He realised that nobody was listening and started to paint. His unique talent was first noticed a year later, when, at the age of six, he won an international Exhibition of Children’s Art competition in Prague, Czechoslovakia. At the age of nineteen he became a full-time professional: self-taught, self-propelled and completely self-supported. He has painted ever since. Bilson has lived in various countries including Australia, Hong Kong, USA, Canada, Ireland and now resides happily in Iceland. There continues to be a great deal of travelling and painting on the move, as well as continuing to exhibit worldwide. Many of Bilson’s paintings are owned by well-known people and corporations, such as Bob Hawke – former Prime Minister of Australia, Jonathon Sachs – The Chief Rabbi, Clint Eastwood, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Anne Robinson, The Von Thyssen Collection, The Romanov Collection, Westinghouse, Ashland Oil and Arrowfield Horse Stud...Category
