H.M. Saffer II, "Field of Dreams III", Pointillist Landscape Oil Painting

Colorful landscape painting "Quiet Sundown" by artist H.M. Saffer II. Painted in the style of pointillism, a series of tiny painted brushstrokes , this 16x20 oil landscape depicts a colorful and serene sunset featuring bright yellows and oranges to deep blues and greens. A meandering stream makes it's way through a pocket of trees. About the artist: Born July 18, 1942 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, H.M.

While at Warner he painted a forty foot mural in their Madison Ave., NY headquarters and exhibited his works in the firm's lobby. In 1972 HM was hired by the dynamic songwriter/producer Bob Crewe...
