A
view of historical and evocative watercolor landscapes of early
California and the Southwest, portraits and figurative work from
the 1930’s and 1940’s throughout her prolific
57 year career.
Beginning
as a Fashion Illustrator while studying and later teaching at The
Art Center School in downtown Los Angeles, Duval Eliot became a master
of her medium: oil, watercolor, acrylic, silk screen serigraphy,
pen/ink line drawings and architectural metal/enamel on copper work. She exhibited
extensively throughout her life, demonstrated, won many
awards, acted as art juror and taught advanced technique
well into her 70’s.
Renowned
for her versatility, strength, and sense of color, Duval
Eliot’s work embodied “The Essence of the California Twentieth
Century Arts Movement.”
Finally,
part of the remaining estate of over 400 pieces has been collected
and curated, and now can be viewed for purchase here: by
collectors, beginning collectors and art enthusiasts.
