About the Item
Realistic portrait oil painting on canvas of a man in a suite and tie by Ralph Edward Joosten (American, 1928-2009). Unsigned and unframed without glass. Image size: 24"H x 18"W.
Mr. Joosten was an accomplished artist and photographer who lived in Santa Cruz for the past 25 years. He studied at the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art (SFAI) and was one of the first group of students to take the Ansel Adams designed night course in photography. Ralph earned a BFA and teaching credential from the California College of Arts and Crafts and a master's degree in painting from New York University. He spent his early years in San Francisco, where he held a one-man photography exhibit at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1957. He traveled extensively, taking trips to Yosemite and Carmel with Ansel Adams and John Weston and learning wood block printing and Japanese brush painting in the Kyoto Gardens in Japan and studied woodcut printing under Iwashita Hiroshi.
Mr. Joosten taught at schools on the Peninsula and adult education classes in Sacramento and Santa Cruz. He loved to dance and socialize with friends, visit art museums and watch and critique movies. Those close to him describe him as a "class act" and a caring friend who had a clever sense of humor and a flair for color and style
