Clyde Aspevig (b. 1951)
Moonrise
signed "C. Aspevig" lower left
oil on canvas, 24 by 30 in.
Aspevig was born in Montana and has been inspired by the landscape since the beginning. His paintings of the American West are “evocations of places that he perceives as already disappearing during his own lifetime, subjects worthy of both artistic and societal preservation.” In his paintings, he intends to “create something beautiful and harmonic. While subject matter is of prime consideration, further contemplation of the painting eventually yields its subtle nuances of texture and rhythm. His paintings possess qualities meant to outlast the viewer's initial infatuation, qualities that will endure well into succeeding generations.” In 2013 he received the Edgar Payne Award from the California Art Club for Best Landscape, in addition to other honors, such as the Prix de West in 1997 and multiple awards from the Autry National Center in California.
Provenance: Private Collection, Montana
