Tom Irizarry Studio
The Battle

2021

About the Item

It is only after we emerged from the horrible Pandemic, that we realized what a battle it was for simple daily living. Tom created The Battle a few years into the Pandemic. The picture evokes a struggle taking place. Paint is vigorously applied in The Battle. It's surface is just as exciting as the image. Dark clouds hauntingly glow, as bright light shoots out in great brilliance behind them. Lightness and darkness, battle each other, in this skyscape drama. The clouds are comprised of natural ash and lapis lazuli pigment. Forceful, lapis, clouds threaten. Powerful, protective malachite green pigment creates a new dimension in The Battle. Tom uses black touch drawing to echo the energy and chaos in the scene, and the power of the mineral pigments. The Battle was recently included in the exhibition, USED, The Attleboro Arts Museum, Attleboro MA, July 2023.

  • Newfoundland Landscape (Canada)
    By James Floyd Clymer
    Located in Wilton Manors, FL
    Beautiful abstract painting by American artist, James Floyd Clymer (1893-1982). Newfoundland, ca.1930. Watercolor and pencil on paper measures 14 x 20 inches. Signed lower margin. James Floyd Clymer ( 1893-1982 ) known for his Regionalist style of land, sea and cityscapes, created paintings with an emphasis on color and form. His works possess a clear and simple style, easily understood by the masses. Born in Perkasie Pennsylvania, 20 miles north of Philadelphia, Clymer was the youngest of seven children. Losing his mother during childbirth, he was raised by his eldest sister. He attended Drexel University in Philadelphia, studying Art and Architecture and worked as an Architect in the years following World War I. During this time, Clymer met the artist Gwenyth Waugh, daughter of the renowned marine painter, Frederick Judd Waugh. His thrust then changed from Architect to Artist. Together, the couple travelled to destinations such as Spain and Newfoundland, where they gave birth to their only daughter. In the early 1920's, Clymer and family settled in Provincetown, MA and quickly became associated with notable artists such as Helen Sawyer, Edwin Dickinson...
