J. Alvin Storck, "Foothills", Framed Acrylic on Board, 36 x 24

$1,200.00

Foothills, an acrylic on board by J. Alvin Storck, captures a gentle rise of land overlooking tranquil waters under an expansive sky. A cluster of trees crowns the grassy slope, their varied greens punctuating the rolling terrain that descends toward a calm lake or bay. Storck’s delicate treatment of the cloud-streaked sky and distant hills creates a soft, contemplative atmosphere. His measured brushwork and naturalistic palette convey the quiet beauty of the American landscape, reflecting the restrained elegance characteristic of mid-century regional painting.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Artist Bio

J. Alvin Storck was a Chicago‑based artist active in the mid‑20th century, known for a versatile body of work spanning landscapes, cityscapes, figurative scenes, and abstraction. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, where his approach took shape through close observation, expressive brushwork, and a strong sense of atmosphere. Across signed original works in oil, acrylic, and watercolor, Storck blended modernist color and texture with representational clarity, capturing both the quiet drama of nature and the rhythms of the built environment. His work reflects a thoughtful balance between structure and experimentation, situating him within the broader tradition of American modern and mid‑century painting.
