Small River Big Fish
by Nelson Boren
Fish On!
Taut line, bent rod, quick snap, big grin, reel whines, arms high,
bigger grin. Out of the corner of their eye from a hundred yards away,
any angler can recognize the lines, body language and adrenaline surge
of a hook-up. It is gestalt personified.
Nelson Boren’s rise to prominence in the art world has been built upon applying this concept of gestalt
to cowboy life. His large format graphics tell whole stories of the
durable American icon one intimate slice at a time. So, it was only a
matter of time before Nelson’s other great passion emerged in the
studio.
With his first release on the art of
fishing, Nelson presents us with just a fragment of a magic day on a
clear cold river. Quickly, the mind flows and we fill in the rest;
lunkers cruising just beneath the surface, a furtive boil here and
there, shooting lines, the favored creel heavy with success. Reproduced
as a Fine Art Giclée on Paper this edition captures all the wonder and
presentation of the watercolor original and is sure to disappear as
quickly as a tail rise in a favored run.

The Gardener
by Morgan Weistling
Morgan Weistling’s contemporary impressionism describes the innocence
and wonder of a timeless America, as well as the beauty of everyday
moments. Weistling is inspired by country life and particularly the
lives of children with their irrepressible urge to explore. Morgan
says of his model “Her name is Jessica and I discovered her while she
attended a Christmas play. As soon as I saw her, painting ideas began
to come to me. I imagined her coming in from her grandmother’s garden
with her newly picked prizes.”
In the tradition of the artist’s irresistible recent releases Spilled Milk and Juicy Peach, The Gardener
portrays the magical innocence of a darling garden helper, in her straw
hat and crisp white apron, from a not-too-distant rural American past.
She holds her beets tentatively, perhaps because of her white apron!
Who wouldn’t want this little gardener’s help?
