Paul Strisik "The Boat House", Watercolor on Paper - RS5230

Paul Strisik was born in Brooklyn, N.Y. in 1918. In 1955 he moved to Rockport, MA where he maintained his studio and gallery until his death in 1998. He traveled extensively in North America and abroad to enjoy the challenge of new subjects. He was a dedicated plein air painter, finding even the briefest outdoor stimulation carried him back to the subject more true to the feeling, the light and the mood of the place than photographs. His photographs were used for intricate details. An occasional interior or still life offered him a change of pace from his outdoor activities. He worked in both oil and watercolor. 15" X 9" Sight, Framed 24" X 18". Signed lower right "P. Strisik". Pre-owned.
