Original 2005 Robert Charles Dunahay Mixed Media Mixed Media on Wooden Board Painting Aprox. dimensions: 12" x 12" x 2 1/2" Very good original condition! About the Artist: Robert Dunahay, born 1954, U.S.A. Included in prestigious domestic and international collections, Robert Charles Dunahay is best known for his chromatically lush paintings of palm trees. His large colorful canvases of a single palm image isolated against a solid color background have an immediate and definite pop art quality. The palms are beautifully rendered in fantastic detail with crisp, confident brushstrokes and saturated with rich colors. As a result of Dunahays’ intimate approach and ability to personalize the subject matter, these paintings feel more like portraits than landscapes. Museum exhibitions include the Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art (Malibu, CA), Palm Springs Art Museum (Palm Springs, CA), and the Peninsula Museum of Art (Belmont, CA) Exhibitions: 2012 Palms, Skidmore Contemporary Art, Santa Monica, CA (solo) 2011 April, Skidmore Contemporary Art, Santa Monica, CA 2011 Alex Mertens Fine Art, Montecito, CA 2011 J.
