**First Time At Auction**
Will Collins (American, 1892-1979). Oil on canvas board, n.d. Signed on lower right. A captivating oil painting of Colorado's high country by American artist Will Collins. The composition welcomes the viewer to traverse the snow-covered terrain of what appears to be Estes Park, Colorado, inviting us to visually amble between charming log homes and verdant evergreens, zigzagging through the picturesque landscape with the proud Colorado Rockies in the distance crowned by billowing clouds in the azure skies above. All is delineated with expressive brushwork, brilliant color, and a wonderful command of light and shadow. Size (sight view): 21.2" L x 27.375" W (53.8 cm x 69.5 cm) Size (frame): 27.375" L x 33.5" W (69.5 cm x 85.1 cm)
Born in Ohio, Will Collins studied at Kansas State University as well as Columbia University, and eventually settled in Boulder, Colorado. In the 1930s, Collins published "Sun Over a City" - a limited edition book of drawings depicting Akron, Ohio. While living in Columbus, Ohio, the Ohio State Historical Society commissioned Collins to create a survey of the state's covered bridges. Collins made an illustrated map featuring drawings of the covered bridges. In 1953, Collins moved to Boulder, Colorado and focussed on landscapes of the high country in Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mexico. Collins was an active member of the Boulder Art Association as well as the Boulder Artists Guild and exhibited throughout the Rocky Mountain region. (Source: Jeff Jeremias Fine Arts)
