JESSIE ARMS BOTKE ORIGINAL PAINTING

Description: Petite Painting by Famed California Artist JESSIE ARMS BOTKE. Known primarily for her Tropical Birds within lush tropical California Avocado and Magnolia Trees. Her paintings are in major California Art Collections, including the Joan Irvine collection. Her larger paintings have sold for more than $100,000, and her average auction price is listed at $35,000. This painting is unique in the respect that it is a FANTASY of sorts, depictinga Spanish style island off the coast of California, with delicately rendered trees and vegetation. There is a tinyboat with swashbucklers at the shoreline. Cypress trees provide a cinematic like view of The Island Kingdom.This is a later work, and her delicate plants in the foreground show off her chops, almost like she had a brush with just a few sable hairs. I've had this piece in my collection, and if my 4 year old daughter didn't need things, (Barbies are expensive!) I would keep it, as I marvel at the foreground plants and the rolling hills cascading down to the beach. Expertly framed. It's not often that one can acquire a JESSIE ARMS BOTKE original at such an attractive price. The Jessie Arms Botke Gallery in Palm Springs estimated a fair price at the $4000 to $5000 price range. Obviously, it's not one of her $45,000 flowers, or her $50k+ tropical birds, but for the listed price, it's a rareopportunity to have one of California's most renowned artists of the 20th century in your collection. Her fascinating biography can be viewed online. GOOD LUCK!!! JESSE ARMS BOTKE Famous California Artist known for her Tropical Birds in Botanical settings. Her Bird and Floral paintings are in majorMuseum Collections, and sell for upwards of $100,000. Even mediumsized paintings of a single flower fetch prices approaching $50,000. To have a JESSIE ARMS BOTKE Painting in your collection is no small feather in one's cap. This petite painting has the added element of an Early California Fantasy of Voyages by Spanish Explorers as they set their eyes on the Magical Coastline of California Flora. Her exquisite renderings of the native plants, and tended gardens exhibit her masterful and precise rendering of the foreground vegetation. A FANTASY Island Kingdom, show a few explorers, or perhaps Swashbuckling Pirates, about to return to their Magical Island somewhere off the Southern or Central California coast. I HAD THIS APPRAISED by the JESSE ARMS BOTKE Gallery in Palm Springs for between 4k and 5k. Admittedly, it is not a Cockatoo in a magical Magnolia Tree,(for 125k) but the foreground of this piece exhibits a masterful ability to render plants and trees in a way that brings them to life. I've enjoyed this painting immensely during the time I've had it in my collection. Alas! My beautiful daughter comes first in life, a living piece of art, if you will, and I must part with my precious JESSE ARMS BOTKE ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING< wonderfully framed, from the collection of a lady in the Santa Paula area. I hope this goes to a good home, to someone who knows of the career of one of California's most important early 20th Century Artists. Her biography can be seen online
