The 2' x 3' oil on canvas is testimony to the brilliant colorist the artist became in the late '60's.  The Mother and Child surrounded by a bouquet of red and yellow flowers and warm burnt sienna still  has closed eyes so the viewer may gaze on the quiet mood of beauty of a moment captured in time. Later in Hyacinthe's career the eye's on the mother's were open. Only a few paintings in this color scheme were ever rendered by the artist. "At the time I painted this Mother and child I was exploring how the intensity of the rich warm reds and earth tones could portray the deep sense of maternal love. It is one of only a few in this palette. The brilliance of the colors has remained fresh due to my technique of glazing with my own mixtures."

Oil thinner washes of lighter tones   Signed by the hand of Hyacinthe Kuller. this original oil painting on canvas by Hyacinthe Kuller Baron was created in the late 1960’s  and has significantly increased in value as unique works from the brief “ICON” period, 1960’s to 1970’s, during Hyacinthe’s early career when the young artist’s subjects included Mother’s and Children, Children, and Women. This beautiful rendition of a young girl surrounded by flowers is a rare and exemplary display of Hyacinthe’s virtuoso use of color. Only a limited number of color paintings were produced in the late 1960’s. Hyacinthe’s fluid brushwork is a perfect example of the loose, emotionally charged, impressionistic modern contemporary style that begins with spontaneous washes and drips to suggest the composition while allowing the viewer to complete the images of the flowers. The focus is on the girl as the details were emphasized to sharpen the features and capture the look in her eyes.  Hyacinthe’s subjects changed in the late 70’s to more mythological themes featuring women, often with horses or other animals. The artist has continued to paint during her long and very successful career.  Self-taught, a fifteen-year-old Hyacinthe, with her young son in her arms, [she was at the time raising her own son from an early marriage at age 15] visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art in her native New York City, and as an artist was inspired by the paintings and painted wood sculptures of the Early Renaissance period exemplified by the Flemish Masters, and later, Rubens, Tintoretto, Titian, Michelangelo, and the Dutch painters Rembrandt and Franz Hals. For Hyacinthe the mood of the Madonna and child expressed everything that the new artist aspired to achieve in her drawings, paintings and lithographic editions on the subjects. Filled with desire to express herself as an artist, and scoring so high in talent the standards of the programs were revised at the prestigious High School of Music and Art which she attended for only one year. Thus she had very little formal art training. Like most geniuses Hyacinthe found her medium in oil paint, using a very limited palette, while her drawings were acclaimed by none other than Marcel Duchamp to be the renderings of a master draughtsman. Her Collectors such as Martha Raye have declared that her children go beyond the ordinary to the realm where the deepest of feelings reside. Exhibited in the Greenwich Village Art Show, Collectors bought virtually every piece of art displayed. She was approached by the Fine Art Dealer Herbert A. Starr who purchased everything she created and distributed the beautifully framed pieces to the finest Department Store Galleries and Art Galleries. Hyacinthe lost track of these pieces until 2001 when collectors began contacting her through the Internet. They had become ICONS, as they were created during a very brief period in her professional artistic career which now spans almost fifty years. With the exception of a few of these Icons sold through Estate Sales, most all were never released to the art market and their rarity resulted in an increase in their value. One model in particular had caught her attention and the many early charcoal drawings she rendered became canvas studies of the subject. These captured Hyacinthe’s intent, with the boldness and definitive hand of the artist in the unique style she developed of suggesting strong emotion, the strokes rendered quickly and some left to drip, and always capturing a sense of almost sculptural 3 dimensional form on the 2 dimensional surface of the canvas, as displayed in the painting “Young Girl’s Portrait With Flowers.”  However in the late 1960’s a new element was added as the artist explored the virtuoso sense of color in a very limited number of paintings. This painting was among the earliest and displays the technique Hyacinthe  developed of beginning with washes of brilliant oil colors  which  suggested forms of flowers while details of the subject’s features were brought into sharp focus while still maintaining the emotion and far away look in the young girl’s eyes. The painting is located in Boynton Beach, Florida. However they may reconsider if a serious offer from a buyer is made through Baron Gallery. The complexity of the meaning and intent of the Artist Hyacinthe Kuller Baron’s expressiveness is not simple.   The Love She Gave...young girl with Raggedy Ann doll.

Icon Painting of "Two Women Dream Sequence" "Two Women Dream Sequence"   This painting is an original one of a kind work of art rendered in the late 1960’s by the artist and signed by the hand of Hyacinthe Kuller.  Title:              “TWO WOMEN DREAM SEQUENCE” Subject:          FEMALES, Contemporary Modern, Figurative, Expressionistic Size:                2’ X4’ Medium:         Oil on canvas, siennas, burnt sienna, pale greens, deep green pigments Original colors retain pale tones and drippings remain as part of the composition and unique style of the artist. Frame:           Gold Trim on rounded black enamel on wood with 1” white linen liner.  Sold by fine art dealer Herbert A. Starr, NYC.  This is a rare early piece on the theme of two women. The Hyacinthe ouvre inspired by the artist’s interest in fashion created an iconic series of masterful figurative contemporary paintings. The eyes are closed on the rear figure as if she is dreaming, or being dreamed of by the woman in the forefront. whose eyes are slightly open, but not staring out at the viewer. This detail allowed individuals to indulge in the voyeuristic practice of observing the seemingly nude model without a direct encounter experienced later on, in the ‘70’s when the women’s eyes were painted open and staring out of the painting. It is a fine example of the attitude with which Hyacinthe imbued her proud and beautiful women. The sense of voluptuous form implied through masterful drawing allows the viewer to complete the image and enhances the viewing experience and understanding of the artistic curves and suggested details. The viewer is able to fill in the negative spaces and many collectors claim to see other figures and images in the free washes and drips. This painting is an exceptionally fine example of a genre that Hyacinthe originated and has not executed since the late 70’s and has not been exhibited or available since that time. Artist Statement: “The female figure as in this portrait of two women has been a favorite subject of mine. By limiting the colors to the pale cool green washes and warm earth tones, as in this painting, I hoped to portray the deep sense of love for self and the beauty of the female icon. I feel I have succeeded admirably in portraying the deep emotions and sense of power in one of my finest paintings. This is an early piece on the theme as the eyes are closed. Later, in the ‘70’s, the women’s eyes were painted open. It is now considered an icon and combines my early love for fashion. I was living in New York City in Greenwich Village It was the beginning of my career as a professional artist. I was invited to show at the prestigious Greenwich Village Outdoor Art Show and I exhibited drawings and paintings on the themes of Motherhood, childhood and Womanhood. Art Dealer Herbert A. Starr signed me to a contract to distribute my art to the finest Art Galleries, Furniture Stores and Department Stores. A demand was created and I began to paint full time and have never stopped. Later on my travels to Arizona and California the theme became more mythical and the women were often projected with animals such as the horse or wolf. In the 90’s I realized that the women in my paintings had always been inspired by “Cassandra”, my artistic alter ego and I completed and had published two books in The Cassandra’s Tear Trilogy. See my biography for more details on my full and successful career.” Hyacinthe Kuller Baron  This work was purchased originally in 1968 directly from Mr. Starr’s Gallery located on Broadway in New York City. It has remained in the private collection until this date and is now being offered to the art collecting marketplace for the first time since its creation.        Currently being offered by the original owners from their private collection: to discuss arrangements please contact hyacinthebaron@aol.com  or call: 760 208 1881.                "CASSANDRA AND THE WHITE STALLION" "Cassandra and the White Stallion" 4'x4' oil on canvas from The Trilogy of White Bear's Daughter   ARTIST/AUTHOR HYACINTHE KULLER BARON  CREATES HER OWN MYTHOLOGY:  SUITE OF PAINTINGS, GICLEES AND PUBLISHED BOOKS BASED ON “CASSANDRA’S TEAR”  ‘THE TRILOGY OF WHITE BEAR’S DAUGHTER’   Artist,Author,Poet, Hyacinthe Kuller Baron creates her own mythology in a series of iconic paintings, Giclee prints and published books that comprise Cassandra’s Tear “The Trilogy of White Bear’s Daughter”.
