W KLEMM Original Oil Painting...."Nude Etude"...(Initialed and dated on lower left corner). ... Aritist info: "Born in postwar Germany and raised in California by parents who experienced the horrors of war firsthand, Walt Klemm and his paintings have become a curious mixture of serious old-world darkness and new-world frivolity that, combined, convey some powerful messages. A scholar of art and a full-time artist, Walter Klemm is steeped in artistic tradition and knowledge. He will regale you , when the situation presents itself, with colorful stories of artists and their art. Goya, Dali, Bacon, and Hopper come to mind as some of his favorites."
