Fur Jacket – Andree Hudson

If there were ever a time to make an acquisition at Waxlander, now would be it. We’re kicking off a very busy year with our annual call-in art auction, running now through February 2. Don’t wait until the last minute to make a move, though. Interest is high, so browse discounted offerings from all 30 of our artists hereand then place your bid at 1-800-342-2202.

Western genre painter Andree Hudson‘s most common subjects are the great beasts that roam the foothills near her home outside Denver. Though you’ll see graceful horses among Andree’s lots in this year’s auction, some of the most stunning works available are of the animals’ riders. The artist’s portraits of Western women, all of whom she knows personally, capture intimate moments in the lives of these rough-and-tumble characters. See the starting bid for “Fur Jacket” and other glowing acrylics here.

Lean in close to your computer screen and study the poetry of Matthew Higginbotham‘s brushstrokes in “Midday Clouds Over Field Grasses II”. Any one section of the golden meadow looks like an abstract painting, but as a whole it’s a thrilling perspectival study of the breathtaking sprawl of the Great Plains. Rest assured it’s even better in person. Browse Matthew’s other lots here.

Montana artist Marshall Noice watches his surroundings carefully, but when brush touches canvas the landscapes that emerge capture sensation and emotion rather than direct reality. If the sun hits an autumn tree, Marshall paints its intersecting branches using only a fiery red. When the first shadows of dusk touch the forest floor, stark bands of dark blue and purple appear behind bright yellow tree trunks. Find out which of Marshall’s paintings are on the block here.

One of Oneida artist Bruce King‘s lots has already sold at our discounted “Buy it Now” price, so make sure to act fast if you’re interested in the post-impressionist’s work. His “Echoes of the Hunt”, a rushing river of bison that plays with the visual vocabulary of prehistoric cave paintings, is just one of the works that’s still available. Check out all of them on his artist page.

Other lots in this year’s auction include works by Chris Turri, Christopher Owen Nelson, Josiane Childers and Justin West, Suzanne Donazetti, Laurel Peterson Gregory and all the rest of our incredible artists. Click here for more information, and ask questions or place your bid at 1-800-342-2202.
