In his show at the Leslie/Lohman Gallery in 2000 Wayne Snellen, director/curator, writes, "Robert Gable paints the model in the studio in a warm and relaxed manner. His work evolves from the long tradition of western figure painting evoking a mastery of paint and understanding of the male form. Warm tones radiate a naturalness and confidence only developed through a true understanding of the male figure from continual practice and a sure eye. There is a gentleness and warmth in these painings based on a pure humanity." © Robert Gable. All rights reserved. |
