This painting by Glenn Dodenhoff (1936-2012) depicts boats at a dock in a harbor. There is a palm tree in the upper left, so this could be a scene from the Southern California coast or the coast of the American South; both are locales that Glenn Dodenhoff called home. The painting is in very good condition. The edges, 1/16 – 1/8 inches on all sides appear a bit rough, but they will be covered when the painting is framed. Please see pictures.

A lifelong artist, Glenn Dodenhoff studied at the Art Center School in Los Angeles. He worked in the commercial art departments of Northrop Grumman and McDonnell Douglas. An award-winning painter, Dodenhoff was showing in Los Angeles galleries in the late 1950s and early 1960s during the height of the Abstract Expressionism movement. While equally adept at realism, he painted a masterful abstract language of color and form until his death. His art has been shown in exhibitions nationwide and is in government, private and corporate collections worldwide, including the Dare County Municipal Center in Manteo and the private collection of Norway’s royal family.
