This original oil on board seascape by artist Don Charlie Burgess (1947-2018), a California native who frequently painted local landscapes. Displayed in a black frame with gold fillet. The story... In his early years, he was inspired by Impressionism, which was a critical influence in developing his own stylistic landscapes. In addition to producing his artwork, in the late 1970’s and 1980’s Don owned a live music venue called the Blue Lagoon Saloon in Marina Del Rey, California. Numerous musicians had their start at his club including the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Johnny Depp (The Runaways), and Katey Sagal best known for her work in the television productions, "Married with Children" and "Sons of Anarchy. Etta James, sat-in on sets at the Blue Lagoon, and Jackson Browne, once sang at his birthday celebration. During the last twenty years of his life, Don was inspired by the rural landscape of Warner Springs, California as seen in his oil paintings, watercolors and drawings from this period. Don’s free time was spent painting in open fields and his art gallery. He shared his passion for art and painting by teaching art classes to children at local schools.
