Description: This set of two large, gouache paintings by American artist G.T. "Tom" Burke (1926-2015) showcases his minimalist and abstract style. He used color and scale to evoke emotion in viewers. The paintings feature shades of pink, brown, blue and green which create a calm and serene scene. Burke was based in Nantucket, Massachusetts and likely drew inspiration from the coastal landscape. These paintings were produced using gouache, which is essentially a more opaque and pigmented form of watercolor. Both are signed in pencil by the artist and dated 1983. They come with the original purchase receipt from 1986. The paintings measure approximately 20.25 inches in length and 28.75 inches in height. The frames are painted wood and measure 28.75 inches in length and 36.75 inches in height, with a width of 1 inch. The frames have some minor signs of wear including paint loss- see photos for details.
