Artists in conversation
Milton Avery
American · b. 1885
Avery painted coastal and marine scenes with similarly muted, atmospheric color fields and soft indistinct forms that evoke quiet contemplation. His flattened seascapes and boats rendered in hazy grays and greens share the same ethereal, meditative mood as Ghost Boat.
Alan Magee
American · b. 1947
Magee creates evocative Maine coastal paintings with misty atmospheric qualities and painterly handling that echo Packard's soft brushwork and moody marine sensibility. His works share the same sense of timeless quiet found in Ghost Boat.
Wolf Kahn
American · b. 1927
Kahn painted landscapes with soft luminous color and hazy indistinct forms dissolved into atmospheric mist, closely mirroring Packard's technique of letting figures and boats emerge ambiguously from muted greens and grays. Both artists share a poetic dissolving of subject into mood.
