Artist Bio

Donald Saaf has been showing his unusual figurative paintings at Clark Gallery since 1991. With each new body of work, the cast of characters depicted grows and changes. The scenes in his paintings, as well as the people within, are inspired in many ways by the artist"s own life and family. Working in oil, gouache, and collage, his work features vibrant colors and curious, simple surroundings that make each painting a tantalizing environment with an oddly curious feel. Donald Saaf is a graduate of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and has been showing nationally for fifteen years. His work has been reviewed in The Boston Globe, The Boston Herald and Art New England. In addition to his paintings on panel and canvas, Saaf"s colorful illustrations appear in numerous children"s books, which have been featured in solo, and small group shows at Clark.
