Artwalk at the Hartford Public Library

This exhibition is from an artist named Chet Kempczynski from Hartford, CT. I really appreciated to be able to see only one artist's work all at once. To see the differences yet similarities was really intriguing.

I was a big fan of the stone paintings. The detail is incredible! The marble is a cool added touch.

Six Strangers on the Beach, 1983, oil on masonite

Stone Composition IV, 1985, oil on masonite

Stone Composition V, 1985, oil on board

My favorite of these 4 is "Fly, Mold and Egg" (bottom left)

This is a self portrait of the artist (lower left) and his family. Each can be purchased for $5,000.

"Sandy's Doll" oil on masonite, 1972 - Price tag $15,000

La Mer (Tritych), 1998, oil on masonite

Nice backdrop!

la Coupe III - oil on monotype, 1994

Here is a ink drawing done in 1979 called "Park Street" - this one is cheap. Only $2,500!
Very different from the other pieces.

Below are some of the painting which were inspired by the Homeland Security terror alert system.

Both paintings below are 84" x 84" and go for $38,000!
