A Northern Garden - William Wendt - Hand Painted Oil Painting suits both traditional and modern interiors. As a landscape oil painting, it works as a standalone focal point or as part of an entryway gallery wall, and unlike a print it is genuinely hand painted in oils.
1893
watercolor on paper
According to a letter from John Alan Walker regarding A Northern Garden, "Wendt's watercolors are quite rare, and most probably the artist used this medium in his early years to expand and diversify his exhibition prospects. This 1893 watercolor has Wendt's concerns for growth, a natural motif in his early work, whereas his mid-1930's landscapes of barns are in disrepair, uniting in one emblem the Depression farms and his poor health. I suggest the farm is rural Michigan, because the greenhouses depicted suggest a climate of severe winters. Wendt is known to have traveled in Michigan often during his Chicago years, and in 1905 he had a one-man exhibit in Detroit."
The landscape subject is rebuilt stroke by stroke in oil, giving the finished canvas the depth expected of romantic oil painting wall decor.
Trained artists work in stages — underpainting, mid-tones, highlights, and detail — using traditional oils on canvas. Because nothing is printed, every hand painted oil painting has its own subtle texture and depth.
For entryway wall decor that does not feel generic, a painted landscape canvas is hard to beat. It is a popular landscape oil painting pick for new homeowners and a durable alternative to seasonal poster art.
