Jim Buckels Serigraph on Paper: “Dreamers Awaken” Limited Edition #59/300

Design Plus Gallery presents “Dreamers Awaken” #59/300 Limited Edition Seriagraph by Jim Buckels. Jim Buckels is a delightful anomaly: An artist more driven by his inner visions than by fashions and trends. His work possesses an innate sophistication that places it prominently within the post-modern mainstream. In fact, Buckels is a Neo-Surrealist of a peculiarly American Breed: a creator of dream-like images, rendered in a meticulous, modern airbrush technique with the crystalline clarity of a Colonial limner. He began his career as a freelance illustrator, becoming known for his stylized landscapes as well as by the primitive dreamscapes of the great French painter, Henri Rousseau. This unique confluence of influences also informs the acrylic paintings, lithographs, and serigraphs for which Jim Buckels is now best known. Their visionary vistas and fantastic architectural details offers the viewer a restful respite from reality. For this reason as well as for his outstanding technical skills, Buckels has emerged as a contemporary master whose work will continue to enthrall us for many years to come. The print and framing are both in good condition with minimal wear.
