Artwork

I bought this little cable car souvenir when I went to San Francisco.  The cable cars are an icon of the city as well as the "Golden Gate Bridge" which I got to include on the cover of the smaller book.  The books represent the hills in San Francisco: the cable car being on top of the books (on top of the hills).  This painting is on masonite board and will need a frame for display.
Artist

Jose H. Alvarenga

Inglewood, California

Jose’s soft still life paintings are like visual puns. He creates relationships between objects that evoke both amusement and contemplation in the viewer. By devising a clever dialogue between objects, Jose turns a still life into a story. Jose utilizes a classical realist style with a gentle nod to surrealism through his unique subject selections. He is inspired by everyday objects, particularly those with a quality of nostalgia, memory, or humor. Jose paints out of his Los Angeles area apartment, where he also enjoys playing the keyboard and reading art books.

Thank you so so much for buying my painting!!! It´s an honor for me to know that you have liked my joker painting since you first saw it and that you´ve been following me for a long while..it means so much to me and it inspires me to keeep painting and creating wonderful and memorable paintings like my joker painting. Look at my joker stance..he shows lots of confidence and optimism..he´s there to entertain, to be playful, make you feel good and make you smile and remind you that laughter and joyfulness are the best medicines!

I fell in love with this piece the first time I saw it and have been following Jose’s work at ugallery for a long while. In this time when so many artists are struggling, we decided to finally purchase this now. It brings me pleasure every day.

No, that´s not me..it´s an interesting coincidence, but I don´t know how to do sculptures only paintings. I was only 9 years old in 1983 :-)

Do you by any chance do sculptures too? We have a Scales of Justice sculpture done in 1983 and it says H.Alvarenga on it
