Theresa Pollock,  Marsden Williams,  Aggie Zed, Edgar Endress as well as several local artists......

THERESA POLLOCK (B. August 1899 - D. September 2002).  "Peaks of Otter after the rain" Theresa was an American artist and Educator born in Richmond.  She studied at the prestigious Art Students League from 1921-1926.  She also was a nationally recognized painter and was considered the Founder of the Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts.  She taught from 1928-1969 and she exhibited at the Whitney Museum of Fine Art as well as The Corcoran.  Her works are in many private collections as well as institutions and are rarely on the open market.  This is a wonderful opportunity to own one of Pollock's evocative works of art.

MARSDEN WILLIAMS is a long time Richmond artist specializing in Richmond scenes who studied under Theresa Pollock.  Watch Marsden on video HERE!  Marsden graduated from RPI in 64 with a BFA in painting and in 1966 with an MFA in Sculpture. She loves vivid colorful genre scenes which she interprets in her flamboyant style.  Marsden has exhibited in many local venues and also paints many local points of interest such as Pony Pasture River, Shep's Market, Maymont and Hollywood Cemetery.   She is as fascinating to meet as her work is electric...
