Beautiful recently completed painting by the well known Maine artist, Keith Oehmig. Great use of light and shadows in this seaside painting. Oil paint on fiberboard. Signed lower right. Done in 2020. Condition is excellent. The painting is framed in a custom gold leaf frame that measures 21.75 by 25.75 inches.
Originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee, Oehmig now resides in Brunswick, Maine. He graduated from Principia College in Elsah, Illinois in 1984 with a B.A. in Studio Art and Art History. Oehmig''s works are infused with light and color, and his impressionistic style is well suited to capturing the play of light on water and the light, fluffy clouds so often present in his work. Oehmig works primarily in Maine and Florida, capturing the coast and the beaches with quick brushstrokes and playful colors. Oehmig''s paintings have won numerous awards such as the Merit Award from the Hunter Museum of Art in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the Mable Axcy Dominick Award at Principia College, the Kodak International Newspaper Award, and Best In Show-Cityscape at the Gallery at Six Deering in Portland, Maine. Oehmig has shown his work in solo and group exhibitions at locales including the Bates College Museum of Art in Lewiston, Maine; the Hunter Museum of Art; the Portland Museum of Art in Portland, Maine; the Wood Museum and Library in Chicago, Illinois; Albany Fine Arts in Albany, New York; Art Boston, in Boston, Massachusetts; the Bay View Gallery in Camden, Maine; Clarke Galleries in Palm Beach, Florida; J. Todd Galleries in Wellesley, Massachusetts; the Maine State House in Augusta, Maine; and the Wiscasset Bay Gallery in Wiscasset, Maine. Museums, corporate and public collections, and private collectors in the United State and abroad own Oehmig's paintings. His works can be found in the collections of the Hunter Museum of Art; the Portland Museum of Art; the Wood Museum and Library; Casco Northern Bank in Brunswick, Maine; Ensign Bank in New York, New York; Galerie K in Berlin, Germany; GTE/Sylvania Collection in Waldoboro, Maine; Key Bank of Maine; MBNA collection in Wilmington, Delaware; and United Technologies Corporation in Hartford, Connecticut. |
