About the Item
Straw Hat is a watercolor on paper painting, 12 x 9" image size, signed ‘HOFMANN’ lower left, and framed in a contemporary, white frame.
Hofmann has remarked that Vermeer was the pinnacle of 17th century painting for him because “the settings, the props, and the figures depicted all had an innate believability.” He has also greatly admired the Impressionists for a similar reason in that the images presented strove to provide some insight into the characters, even if contrived – workers working, dancers practicing, women bathing or simply lounging, etc.

Douglas Hofmann
Douglas Hofmann was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1945 and began his training in art after high school at the Maryland Institute College of Art. He also discovered the Maroger method, which enables the artist to use thin layers of paint and techniques similar to those of the Old Masters. He states, "With my paintings, I strive to get the feeling of air. There is a signature to the work that reveals my hand, my feelings and my personality. You can see the manipulation of the paint and the brush strokes. I don’t want to paint everyday scenes. I’m a dreamer. I want to express a romantic feeling in my work. This appeals to me as a form of self-expression in today’s world of structured reality."
