Original, untitled ocean scene, acrylic painting on hardboard, signed by John Doody (1928 - 2016). This 12" (cm) by 6" (cm) painting is likely an impression of a section of the San Diego coastline with its in the typical marine layer grey sky, rocky outcroppings, circling ocean birds and splashing surf. John Doody spent most of his life in San Diego, having moved there from his birthplace in Abington, Pennsylvania to join the US Navy. After retiring from the Navy, he stayed in the area and became an administrator for General Dynamics. He was an avid artist, traveled throughout the southwest, painting in plein air as well as in studio and mixed with other artists in the area. He was a member of the Southwestern Art Gallery and participated in shows there and with shows of other members. This painting is a little window into John Doody's surroundings during his days in San Diego and a nice sample of his landscape work. Framed in a hand made whitewashed oak frame made in Mexico. The frame measures 17" (43cm) by 11" (27.8cm) on the outside. Great piece for a collector, a lover of the ocean or nature or an interesting addition to a gallery wall.
