Original Figure Studies from an Esteemed Bay Area Studio I'm pleased to present a collection of four original figure studies, each a vibrant 10" x 12" painting. These works offer a direct, intimate look into the practice of drawing and painting the human form. The Provenance: Terry St. John's Oakland Studio These studies were created in Oakland, California, as part of a small, weekly drawing group held in the home studio of the late, renowned Bay Area Figurative painter, Terry St. John (1934-2021). St. John, influenced by artists like Richard Diebenkorn and James Weeks, was celebrated for his gestural marks, visceral paint application, and bold color in his figurative and landscape paintings. The setting of his studio, a historically significant location for this style of art, contributes a unique artistic lineage to these pieces, connecting them to the rich tradition of Bay Area Figurative painting. These studies are an excellent opportunity to acquire an original work of art created in a highly influential artistic environment.
