Edward Lambert - Artist

Edward Lambert is no longer with us, but a number of his paintings remain both in private collections and in on-line galleries. 

Giclee prints of selected works are for sale.

A Hudson Valley based artist, Ed did not sell his paintings and stopped showing his work long ago. 

An independent thinker, he painted for himself and cared little or nothing about what anyone thought of his work. Friends and family members were often stunned when he handed them an original they so admired.

Ed wrote the following about himself in 1994, when he and his wife, Carol, were living aboard their sailboat, The Georgia O’Keeffe.  He was trying to establish a mural painting business and wrote this short biography. 

“I do only hand painting (no airbrush) and could complete a quality mural about 100 sq. ft. in 200 hours.  Any subject; from African plains and Roman gardens, to shuttle blast offs can be painted on most surfaces. I can work closely with the designer or your client to enhance the mood they are trying to create.

Problem areas can be brightened and small areas can be given infinite space. I can paint any subject, in the style of any artist, and will do museum quality work when budgets allow.

Also, please consider me for commissioned oil paintings, sculpture, small fountains or dioramas.  Scaffolding (if required), and materials on large projects, site access hours, or major surface preparation can effect costs, but I will give you an exact quote in most cases.

Enclosed please find a news photo of my recently completed mural for the downtown merchants Civic Association. This was a rush job; done without benefit of research and sketching, and was painted on roofing plywood in about 80 hours (96 sq. ft.) to meet a deadline.

Sincerely,

Edward D. Lambert"

As you can see, by virtue of the pictures shown in this blog, Edward was a capable realist who preferred surrealism.  

His paintings are colorful, evocative, and have a story to tell.

Your Thoughts, Please!

One way to support artists is to let them know that you're looking at their art and providing commentary.

Not everyone can afford to buy art that they see, even if they want it, but those who create do like to hear that it's enjoyed.

I'm in the process of putting together another post and will soon introduce you to another talented artist.

In the meantime, several things.

Please feel free to comment on anything you see.  You can do that simply by clicking on the word 'comments' at the bottom of each posting.  You'll be given directions that will assist you in leaving your thoughts.

Another way to support these people is to sign up as a follower.  That way, you'll be sure to see new posts as they come along and see artwork before others.

Also, visiting the individual artist's websites is important, too.  You can send notes to the artists, ask about their processes and see what they're working on next.  Artists of all sorts love to talk about what they're doing.

You'll see links on the right side of the blog.  There's "Artists Items For Sale," where we highlight artworks that you can have for you very own.

I'm happy to be your intermediary for any purchases or you can contact the artist directly. 

Under "Artist's Contact," the box just below the sales area, you can gain access to our artist's websites. 

Within the individual websites is information about other work and, in some instances, information about the artist themselves.

We're pleased that you're looking at our sites...please let us know that you're here by commenting or writing to us!

Thank you!!!
