About the Item
"Navajo Camp" is an oil on panel painting by Gerard Curtis Delano. The painting is signed lower left "Delano". The framed piece measures 31 x 36 3/4 x 1 7/8 inches.
Delano was a painter and illustrator of the American west who painted prolifically for more than 50 years.
Delano was born in Marion, Massachusetts. He served in the US Navy in the First World War, then worked on a ranch in Colorado before moving to New York City to study art. He also attended the Grand Central School of Art, taking classes with prominent illustrators Harvey Dunn, Dean Cornwell, and N.C. Wyeth.
Early in his career, Delano drew comic illustrations for magazines such as Cosmopolitan, Collier's Weekly and Western Stories. He also painted scenes for calendar companies.
In 1943, Delano encountered the Southwest and Navajo for the first time. The Navajo people and their landscapes such as red sandstone canyons and wildlife was Delano's muse and it was through this subject matter that he found his highest expression as an artist. His style explored some Cubist influences periodically as well.

- "Tbilisi Nocturne" - contemporary realist urban plein air painting, cityscapeBy Rachel PersonettLocated in Sag Harbor, NYPainted from life, the artist standing on a street corner looking across to three buildings lit by ambient street lights. Rising up behind the city is a dark mass, a hill silhouetted against the comparatively brighter blue night sky. Signed "Personett" lower right corner. Framed in a traditional black frame w gold trim. Framed dimensions: 17 x 15 inches Rachel Personett was born in Hawaii, but raised in Colorado. Being the daughter of a pilot she has always traveled extensively. She has studied part time at the Savannah College of Art and Design, The Angel Academy of Art, and finally settled on the Florence Academy of Art, graduating in 2015. In January 2016 she apprenticed the painter Odd Nerdrum in Norway for eight months. Rachel Personett works strictly from life, and enjoys the challenged of painting the ephemeral. Working from life provides the opportunity to travel around the world painting the ever changing people and landscapes. Artist Statement My mother had studied advertising in college, so she knew a lot about arts and good craftsmanship. She did talks at my elementary school each week and on a different artist. I remember being very moved by the images of Van Gogh and Andrew Wyeth. At the Florence Academy I really liked Sargent, Sorolla, Willard Metcalf, Henri Fantin-Latour and Velazquez. At Odd Nerdrums I gained new respect for Rembrandt and was introduced to other Scandinavian painters...Category
