Description
Porfirio Salinas (San Antonio, Texas, 1910-1973), "Texas Cactus and Spanish Red Oak", 1966, oil on canvas, to include artist's business card signed by the artist and his wife, Maria B. Salinas, sight: 16 x 20", frame: 23 x 26.5"
Provenance: An Alamo Heights, Texas collection, commissioned from the artist as a fifth-birthday present for patron's son
Porfirio Salinas was known for his magnificent landscape paintings of Central Texas with an emphasis on the vast bluebonnet fields that grow there in the springtime. Salinas painted in the late American Impressionist style, with well composed drawing, and a warm, chromatic palette. He used smaller plein-air studies of bluebonnets in the spring and oak trees in the fall to create larger compositions. He studied with the director of the San Antonio Art School, Jose Arpa, and Robert Wood. Salinas was one of the first Mexican-American artists to have his work widely recognized, earning attention of prominent collectors such as President Lyndon B. Johnson.
