Vintage Warren Fischer figurative abstract painting on linen canvas.

Offered for sale is a figurative abstract painting on linen canvas by the American artist Warren Fischer (1943-2001). The painting is part of the artist’s estate. Fischer used great impasto texture techniques that create movement along with the use of strong hues. The painting is unframed but wired for hanging.

Fischer earned a BFA from the University of New Mexico in 1966 with a major in painting and a minor in art history. Returning to Florida, his permanent residence since 1951, he continued postgraduate art studies at Florida State University. From 1976 through 1981 Warren and his family lived aboard their sailboat and traveled throughout the Florida Keys and Bahamas. During this time Warren changed from oil to acrylic; acrylic being better suited for shipboard life. His artistic development grew as he combined his observations of light and water with figure studies. ln 1981 Warren and his family purchased a home in Miami but remained connected to the sea. Warren began painting large canvases in acrylic while returning to his studies in oil. Warren passed in 2001.

“l am concerned with the immediacy of the brush strokes and the physical gestures producing them which lead to smaller ‘painted worlds’ making up the total image. When I paint, l feel as if I’ve turned off my mind, and I am directly impinging on the canvas revealing small areas of ideas and possibilities which constitute the whole finished visual experience.”

Full to Queen headboard lacquered in high gloss Cloud White by Benjamin Moore and matched using Fine Paints Of Europe . Beautiful detailed fretwork and faux bamboo come together for a classic Chinoiserie chic style . If you plan on picking up the color swatch from Benjamin Moore please swipe some clear gloss nail polish on it so that you may get a better idea of how it looks in high gloss as flat colors don’t pick up any light reflection .

All of my pieces are carefully restored. The process includes cleaning, sanding, filling, priming, fine sanding the primer, and many coats of lacquer fine sanded in between coats which is spray-booth applied . The finish is durable, hard and mirror-like. High-quality paint is used. Backs of pieces are never painted as the material used will not coat well unless it is solid wood or a dimensional piece that is intended to be shown . While I try my best to remove all flaws before painting, these are vintage pieces which due to age will always have flaws. No vintage piece is perfect or factory like, due to the slow drying time in between coats and glossiness of the lacquer there will always be minor dust particles that settle in the finish, which are only visible if you are in extremely close contact with the piece . Despite all the prep work and labor there still will be minor flaws to the newly painted surface. Please feel free to ask any questions regarding the piece
