The works of Hudson Valley-based artist John Kelly marry the sensibilities of traditional American landscape painting with the loose, exuberant application of color characteristic of the Expressionism movement. Notably, this image was painted from the property of Frederic Edwin Church, a member of the Hudson River School who is widely considered to be one of the founding fathers of American landscape painting.
In "From Olana II," Kelly renders the undulating hills of Church's beloved estate in wintertime; the trees are bare, the orange-brown fields suggest hibernation, and the water announces its frigidity via a particularly inhospitable blue. Far off in the distance, the Hudson River flows flanked by the Catskill mountains. Kelly guides the eye across the picture plane with decadent strokes of the paintbrush, offering the viewer not only the landscape itself, but also the exquisite conglomerate of details that constitute it.

John Kelly
John Kelly was born in Bristol, UK, in 1965. His family emigrated to Australia later the same year and settled in the Melbourne suburb of Sunshine. In 1985, Kelly obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Arts Painting from RMIT, where he also completed his Masters of Arts in 1995. As a winner of the 1995 Anne & Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarship, he traveled to London to study as an Affiliate Student at the Slade School of Art from 1996–97. Kelly's interest in Australian history clashed with his idiosyncratic sense of humor and this collision created his early Dobell's Cows series (1992–1996) based on the work of the artist Sir William Dobell. Early indications of his work had broader resonance beyond Australia which influenced him greatly, and his thoughts for future international projects.

Here, he abstracted the city skyline of Hudson, NY. Buildings and rooftops in shades of magenta, teal, and green are segmented in the foreground and cropped with black power lines. A soft yellow sky is layered with thin strokes of gesturally applied pale blue paint, furthering abstracting the city landscape. The piece is in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. The sides are painted a very dark, warm magenta so framing is not necessary. About the Artist: Growing up in Puerto Rico, I observed how people and nature could co-exist in harmony.
