![]() | "Moonrise on a Windy Cliff", Oil on Panel, 12 X 16 Inches The quietness of the moonrise is evident, even on a windy ridge. Interestingly, the paint is applied thickly in the areas where the greatest attention is desired, such as the moon and stout old pine growing over the cliff's edge. In other areas, slightly thinner paint causes the eyes to perceive the background as one would in nature. This compliment of textures draws and excites the eyes from the moon and the pine, then gives them a rest in the foreground pond and rocks. The use of chiascuro in the lower part of the painting creates a contrast and a fine secondary interest in the pond, a touch obviously learned from the old masters. |

![]() ![]() ![]() | 1. "Moon and Shredded Clouds", Oil on Cabinet Maker's Panel, 6 X 8 Inches, Signed lower left 2. "Moonrise Behind a Cliff", Oil on Old Shaker Panel, 6 X 8 Inches, Signed lower right 3. "Moonset with Blazing Sun", Oil on Thin Masonite Panel, 6 X 8 Inches, Signed lower left These three small paintings are exceptionally vibrant and juicy with thick paint... "Moon and Shredded Clouds" is filled with drama. Of particular note is the way the artist painted in the greens immediately around the moon... and then used the compliment of green (i.e. red) to create a most vibrant and glowing center of interest. The transparency of the clouds is very nicely defined, and the shredding effect is completely believable. The luminosity of the moon's reflections off the clouds is beautifully handled... the farther away from the moon, the lesser the impact of the color on them. SOLD "Moonrise Behind a Cliff" is an exercise in complimentary colors, and yet the most harmonious of them all. Despite the use of contrasting colors painted side-by-side, they keep their place by being somewhat muted for a quieter effect. The darks of the landscape serve to provide a foil to make the sky glow and create the effects of a sky completely defined by the moon, with no evidence of a setting sun behind. SOLD "Moonset with Blazing Sun" is highly luminous. Obviously, the sunset painting is filled with dramatic color, with the blazing sun painted with the purest of yellows and reds. The moon is held in place by making it slightly less intense than the sunset, just as one would expect in real life. The sky colors are a blend of deep blue-violet mixed on the surface with a deep red-violet. These are complimentary colors to the yellow of the sunset, enhancing the vibrancy even further. |

![]() | "Last Light on Blue Lake", Oil on Panel, 14 X 20 Inches Another major painting by EEG. The feel of the last light falling on a group of trees, rocks, snow and water is mesmorizing. The strength of color around the lake defines the light of the sun. The distant peaks do likewise, but in a more subtle manner, keeping them in the distance where they belong. The contrasts in textures keeps the overall painting from being stifled. In places, the smooth textures in the rocks allow the focus to go to the trees and foliage. In others, the rough but simple textures of rocks define the ruggedness of the mountains and puts us there in their midst to feel the overwhelming power of the landscape. A fabulous work by EEG |

![]() | "Setting Sun, Setting Moon on Three Trees", Oil on Panel, 8 X 8 Inches Few works by E E Glass stir up the feelings of the early evening sky like this fine small painting. The artist is a true master of the impressionist sky. The last glow of the sun is rendered in an vibrant yellow that graduates into the cool reds and lavenders of the sky. Even the moon is "rounded" by the use of the same red that permeates the sky. But, it's a different warmer red that invades the landscape of trees and rocks. Many reflections of the setting sun make this work vibrate. A fully mature and complete work by the artist. | Sold |

What we got was more than what we expected. These works are all cut from the true impressionist mold. They all have that vibrant sense of color interaction that makes impressionism what it is. All are the same size (6 X 8 inches) and all offer visual impact that belies their small size. These are highly luminous paintings. The sky of each of them is a study in color interactions. In each work, the primary colors (red, blue and yellow) are painted closely with their complementary secondary colors (orange, green and violet). This juxtaposition sets up a vibration that is the essence of the impressionist "manifesto"... creating excitement within the paintings that goes beyond the immediate subject matter. | All Three Sold |
![]() | ""Sunset on a Windy Ridge"", Oil on Canvas, 12 X 16 Inches, Signed lower left This painting is a bit earlier than most we have seen by E E Glass. We estimate the date at 1965, but it could be earlier than that. The color is applied entirely by brush, thickly done and with great flair and urgency. The light effects of the setting sun are bold and striking. The reds are warm and vibrant, complemented nicely by the greens of the pines and the warm lavenders of the background and lower foreground. |

![]() ![]() | "Yellow Sunrise #1", Oil on panel, 8 X 11 Inches, Signed lower left "Yellow Sunrise #2", Oil on panel, 6 X 8 Inches, Signed lower right "Yellow Sunrise #1" was done with brush. "Yellow Sunrise #2" was done with palette knife. Each is an explosion of color, as well as of pigment. There is much paint laid down on panel, creating a strong sense of urgency and energy. Possibly works done en plein air. Both are exciting and energetic works by EEG. | Both Sold |
![]() | "Moonrise, Star and Bowing Pine at Last Light", Oil on Panel, 14 X 20 Inches, Signed lower left This painting is very "Sandzen-esque", but is done in the most mature style and methods of the artist, uniquely his own. The mixture of colors throughout is a study in complementary color theory... the primary colors of red, blue and yellow being dynamically set against the secondary colors, especially green. It is no accident that the most important subject area is reserved for the highest color dynamic: the reds and violets of the clouds set starkly behind the greens of the pine tree. The composition flows nicely, with every element of the landscape ultimately pointing to the moon. This is perhaps the finest of all the EEG moon paintings we have ever seen. | Sold |
![]() | "Rising Moon on Hazy Evening", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches This painting is a vignette of the one above, the same tree treated in a different atmosphere. With the last light of day on a ridge, the "bowing" pine overlooks a hazy and atmosphereic moonrise. Despite its samll size, this painting is a fully realized work. The colors of the setting sun invade those of the tree an rocks, the pinks of the high sky greet the rising moon. A fine work by EEG. | Sold |
![]() | "Moon Peeks through the Branches of a Lightning Struck Pine", Oil on Panel, 8 X 8 Inches The impressionist sky of this fine small work create a vibration of color. The sky is make of strokes of red, blue and pale green to offset the greens, reds and yellows of the pine, grass and rocks. A nice detail of the broken branch makes for a device to carry the eyes back to the moon, as it shines behind the branches of the pine. | Sold |
![]() | "Quiet Moonrise on a Windy Ridge", Oil on panel, 6 X 9 Inches It's the color that defines the work of any impressionist. In this small moon painting, the color is bright, contrasing and dynamic, yet very accurately conveying the "impression" of the last hour of the sun and the rising of the pale moon. The colors of the sky range from soft yellows and reds to greens and blues, with the bolder red in the clouds defining the light from the setting sun. A small but brilliant representation of the subject by EEG. | Sold |
![]() | "Moon and Star in a Luminous Sky", Oil on panel, 9 X 12 Inches Painted over a black underpainting... the reddish lavender color is made with magenta mixed with ultramarine blue (as noted on the back of the painting) for the sky, to make a very vibrant and silvery shimmering effect that can't be captured by the camera. The use of yellow is sparing, but added in just such a way to create that reflection of light of the moon on the clouds and add great warmth overall. This work ranks with the best of the moon paintings. | Sold |
![]() | "Windy Plains", Oil on Panel, 6
X 9
Inches We have occasionally seen drawings and paintings of the same scene, but never at the same time. This is an interesting study itself into the working methods of the artist. The drawing is very bold, leading to the bold coloration of the painting. There is definitely a connection, despite the difference in the media. The drawing is available separately on our EEG Drawing Page | Sold |
![]() | "Moon over Estes Park, Colorado" (Longs Peask and Mt. Meeker), Oil on Panel, 18
X 24
Inches Is there a finer painting of the early evening than this one? This work does the night justice. The depiction of the famous landmarks is epic in scale, with the setting sun and rising moon simply adding drama and color to the scene. For size and visual impact, this is one of the great works of the artist. | Sold |
![]() | "Moon over Blue Mountains", Oil on Panel, 7
X 10
Inches When the moon peeks from behind clouds, there is a playfulness that comes. To add to that, this painting is filled with dynamic and vibrant interactions of colors. We find no fewer than two different reds, three different yellows and three different blues in this small work that is filled with energy, not only from the color, but also from the techniques of their application with palette knife. | Sold |
![]() | "Moon and Shredded Clouds", Oil on Panel, 6
X 8
Inches See the comments for the painting above | Sold |
![]() | "Hay Stacks, Rising Sun", Oil on Panel, 16
X 22
Inches A major work by E E Glass. The sun is barely showing its presence over the horizon. The sky is a glowing yellow and green, while the reds and lavendars of the rising misty clouds compliment the other colors nicely. However, it's the multitude of color in the hay stacks that generate the most interest. Each stack is painted differently, with the foreground one a fine mix of all the colors of the rest of the painting... and the overall work maintaining a feel of unity. A wonderful painting in every sense. | Sold |
![]() | "Moon over Dark Lake", Oil on Panel, 10
X 14
Inches The fine feeling of the rising moon is always a startling subject by EE Glass, no matter how many of these one sees. The greens, yellows and blues of the moon and sky are mingled with cool red colors to give this work a vitality of its own. The reflection of the light on the water only adds to the effect of a shimmering light. A fine painting. | Sold |
![]() | "Approaching Storm, Setting Sun", Oil on Panel, 14
X 20
Inches This is a bit larger work by EEG. The powerful feel of the lightning is created by a subtle change in color, which I hope we have captured in our images. The setting sun is done in warm yellows and reds... while the lightning is done in cool blues, pinks and lavenders. The color difference dramatizes the lightning, just as one would expect from nature. An added feature of the painting is the golden lining to the clouds at the upper right. This echoes the form of the strike of the lightning but also echoes the color of the setting sun. | Sold |
![]() | "Sunset on an Ancient Tree", Oil on Panel, 14
X 18
Inches Somewhere along the line, Emerson Glass must have studied the work of JMW Turner. The movement of skies and rich and dramatic application of color were his trademark. The invasion and movement of color in this work by E E Glass in the evening sky permeate the entire scene in a way that leaves no doubt of the time of day... bold here, subtle there. Lights and shadows in the tree are done with dramatic flair. | Sold |
![]() | "Cave in the Rock", Oil on Panel, 14
X 20
Inches One of the great abilities of the artist is to depict the dramatic effects of light on his subjects. In this work, the setting sun permeates the scene, yet brings a definite sense of the time of day. The reds and golds glow with resounding effects on the rocks, trees and water in such a way to unify the entire composition. | Sold |
![]() | "Moon River", Oil on Canvasboard, 12
X 16
Inches One of a series of "Sandzen-esque" paintings by E E Glass. This one with the rising moon and dramatic color combinations that reflect the influance of Birger Sandzen on the artist. The two were friends and apparently did some painting together, as Glass did not attend Bethany College nor live in Lindsborg. It is possible that the two artists spent some time together when Sandzen was older, either in Estes Park or, more likely, southern Colorado. | Sold |
![]() | "Kansas Twister", Oil on Canvasboard, 12
X 16
Inches One can feel the movement and fury of the storms of Kansas in the artist's paintings. In this one, the surety of the closely approaching storm is at hand. The sun peaks through barely as the clouds and elements swirl around it. A very dramatic work of a dramatic moment. | Sold |
![]() | "Cloud Study #1", Oil on Thin Masonite Panel, 8 X 11 Inches One of two (see below) small works that, despite being studies, are complete in themselves. These works are very much thorough expressions of the impressionist "manifesto", or basic philosophies in painting. The larger image of these paintings give a good look at the constant interactions of primary and secondary colors, typical of the best of the American impressionist tradition. | Sold |
![]() | "Cloud Study #2", Oil on Thin Masonite Panel, 8 X 11 Inches (See commentary above) | Sold |
![]() |
"Tree Top", Oil on Thin Masonite Panel, 9 X 12 Inches Finding beauty in even the most mundane of subjects... is this not one of the great purposes of artists? In this case, Emerson Glass has taken on the task of painting a simple broken limb, found in the top of a tree, and making it into something even greater. This is a deceptively complex painting. The abstract design formed by the broken limb and the opposing direction and forces of the remaining trunk, branches, pine needles and other elements, all work together to form a fine and complete work of art. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Burnoff, Morning Mist", Oil on Panel, 12 X 16 Inches The morning sun peaks through the clouds and mist as it rises with first light. The sun is brilliantly presented, with much overlaying of paint, each extending the impact of the light from the sun. The mist and clouds are nicely colored with yellows and reds, softly rising and dissipating with the warmth of the sun. The bent pine is much in evidence of years of exposure to the elements of the Rocky Mountains, with some dead branches and the effects of a long past lightning strike. Overall, a beautifully colored work, typically contrasting the greens of the tree with reds and yellows of the sky. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Full Moon, Bright Star and Shredded Clouds", Oil on Panel, 18 X 24 Inches The application of paint is unique in this major work. The night sky is enhanced by the impressionist handling of the vibrant color, both with brush and palette knife. Also the largest of the moon paintings, this ranks with the most important of the E. E. Glass moon images. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Clouds", Oil on Panel, 30 X 40 Inches We have been told by cynical people that the painting doesn't exist by EEG any larger than a breadbox. This large major work proves us all wrong. The morning clouds drift lazily both below and above this isolated ridge, where the wind blown pines greet the morning sun. This is the largest of all the Glass paintings, and perhaps the most important. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Hazy Sunrise", Oil on Panel, 20 X 20 Inches The invasion of the colors of the morning permeate the entire scene in a way that leaves no doubt of the time of day... bold here, subtle there. The sky is a striking lemon color, resolving to a yellow green in the upper sky and into a reddish lavender at the horizon. The distant hillside is a fine mix of lavendar blue and red, blending into the distance. Lights and shadows in the tree are done with dramatic flair. This painting ranks with the most important of the E. E. Glass paintings. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Storm in the Rockies", Oil on Panel, 12 X 12 Inches A dramatic painting. The color is more subtle and in keeping with the subject matter, but that is made up for with the lights and darks. The swirling clouds are beautifully painted and one gets the feel of the storm in every way. It can be seen why the trees are shaped as they are in the high mountains. It's of note that the shapes in the tree echo the shapes of the clouds. Nicely done. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Bent Aspen", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches A veritable study in the dynamics of color and how the primary and secondary colors work off each other. The contrasts are rather brilliant, not so much for the lights and darks, but for the juxtaposition of color compliments. In Wyoming, aspens often grow as depicted here, the seedlings protected by the rocks until mature, and then the trees themselves shaped by the elements. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Life of the Artist" (Campfire in the Wilderness), Oil on Panel, 8 X 8 Inches A bit unusual for the artist, and a self-portrait of sorts. The clear night sky, moon and stars while the artist spends his night as he lived it... in solitude, with a warm fire for comfort. His tent is off to the right, the moon and sky reflecting in the water of a nearby lake and, of course, his old bent tree for company that picks up the light from the campfire. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Solar Wind", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches Paint... is that not what painting is all about? In this exceptional fine work, it's the paint that takes center stage. With nothing less than genius, the artist has coordinated the three primary colors (red, yellow and blue) into an energetic display of dramatic color interaction. This work flows with energy and movement, making for something greater than the sum of the parts. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon over Blue Hills" (Study), Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches This small painting is the study for the very important "Moon over Blue Hills" (see below). Although the artist did not usually paint en plein air, it seems evident that this work was done on location as a preparation for the larger version. An significant work in its own right. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon and Shredded Clouds", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches Emerson Glass has caught the animation and dynamics of the cloud movement. In addition, the rendering of the light from the moon creates a separate striking effect, adding substance and flesh to the clouds. Overall, an exceptional impressionist painting, despite its small size. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moonrise over Kansas Cornstalks", Oil on Panel, 5 X 7 Inches A very early work, executed with brush, before the
artist's
development of style with thick impasto. The effect of the
rising moon and planets is dynamically created with the primary colors,
but with an overall quiet and harmonious feel. Beautifully
done in a small painting. |
Sold |
|
|
"Thunderstorm over Blue Hills", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches The overall feel of this work is strength, with a
charged atmosphere of light and dark, that is carried out with effect
in the small size. There is a sense of expectation of a storm in the
fading light. The strong use of the three primary colors (red, blue and
yellow) is a device used by Emerson Glass to establish the dynamics of
the subject. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Early Spring" (Southern Colorado), Oil on Canvasboard, 12 X 16 Inches A very early work, executed with brush, before the
artist's
development of style with thick impasto applircation of paint.
The overall feel of this work is soft and atmospheric.
The
clouds speak of fair sky and warmer times to come. A very
pleasing and quiet painting, with harmony of color. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Rocky Mountain Sunset", Oil on Panel, 10 X 14 Inches Impossible to photograph. An impossible sunset. The only way you will ever appreciate this painting is to see it in person. We nearly didn't post it on our web site... however, we will GUARANTEE this: if you buy this painting and don't like it, we will refund your purchase price in full, no questions asked. That's how strongly we feel about this painting. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moonrise through a Bannered Pine", Oil on Panel, 16 X 16 Inches A stunning interpretation of the effects of the bright full moon shining through the branches of this old bannered pine tree. The glow of the moon peaks through and then changes the color of the tree and the reflections all around. The last glow of the setting sun is revealed in the soft pinks and pale lavendars of the sky around the moon and colors of the tree itself. A fine major impressionist painting. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Lone Pine", Oil on Panel, 8 X 8 Inches An absolute jewel of a painting. This small work is a complete expression of the impressionist philosophy. Please look closely at the detail images... where the mixture of colors blends with the eyes, one color layered carefully with another. The overall effect in the sky is exceedingly bright with dapples of reds and yellows mixed throughout the overall greens, blues and violets. The bright and dark colors of the pine tree compliment the rest in perfect fashion. Arguably the finest EE Glass painting "pound for pound" that we have seen to date. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Morning with Rising Mist at Ship Rock", Oil on Panel, 8 X 11 Inches If you ever want to get the feel of the wind on a cool morning in the mountains of the old west, just look at the close-up images of this dynamic painting. The strokes of the brush and knife swirl with infading energy, the lines of color seeming to have a life of their own. A painting filled with energy. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Hay Bales" (Rising Sun, Waning Moon), Oil on Canvasboard, 12 X 16 Inches In the Kansas hayfields, the hay bales pick up the color of the morning sun. The real subject of this painting is the sky... full of colors, from the reds and yellows of sunrise to the greens, blue-greens and violets of the upper sky. The impresisionist's dream... the fullness of color expression. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Full Moon, Swirling Clouds", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches Energy. This is the characteristic that describes this painting more than any other. The vibrant colors play off each other to create an explosion of energetic reaction against each other. It is easy to see the influance of Vincent van Gogh as well as Birger Sandzen.. A fine painting, executed on a black underpainting. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Boulders and Pines", Oil on Panel, 8 X 10 Inches The impressionist "manifesto" calls for subjects to be
defined by
color, rather than academic drafting. In this fine small
painting, the color is what makes the eyes excited. A close
examination of the sky is a virtual study in the principles of
impressionist painting. An intimate scene where life
flourishes. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Knotted Tree at Sunset", Oil on Panel, 10 X 12 Inches A fine accomplished painting of a tree that has bent
into a knot,
most likely at the timberline. Other trees, dead or fallen
are
near. The setting sun, just below the horizon, colors the
entire
scene with a warm reddish glow. Misty clouds rise from the
valley
below and reflect the light of the sun. A worthy painting. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Jagged Rocks, Full Moon", Oil on Panel, 12 X 16 Inches There are times when the last light of the sun creates a
dramatic
sensation of light and movement. In this painting, the
interplay of colors is
further enhanced by the opposing action of the rocks and clouds.
The
drama of these movements is counterbalanced by the stillness of the
moon, painted with its own set of color relationships. A
great expression of color. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moonrise over Blue Hills" (Southern Colorado), Oil on Panel, 16 X 22 Inches We do not like to play too heavily on the relationship between EE Glass and Birger Sandzen... however, in this fine major painting, the influence is obvious. The color palette is very similar, but the application and working methods are quite different. This painting is a major effort for the artist, perhaps the best we have seen to date. The small (6 X 8 inch) study for this painting is also available. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moonrise in a High Mountain Mist", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches A fine small painting, complete in itself. This work nicely depicts the rising of the full moon over a sea of wispy clouds and mist. A fine work with a clear sense of dramatic light and primary colors. Painted on an old wood slice once used to back another artwork. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon over Estes Park", Oil on Panel, 20 X 28 Inches A large and major work by the artist. This fine moon painting was obviously worked over with great care, especially in the sky, where layer after layer is found, creating a wonderful expression of the night. The inclusion of stars (upper right) adds a poingnant touch to this fine painting. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Twisted Tree", Oil on Panel, 14 X 14 Inches A complete and mature impressionist painting by E E Glass. The images do not do justice to what is there... the astounding interplay of colors and thoroughly natural presentation of a tree that no one would belive unless you showed it to them. The manner in which the crecent moon emerges through the branches of the tree is a stroke of artistic merit that will win this painting a place in American art. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Setting Crescent Moon over the Front Range", Oil on Panel, 11 X 14 Inches Imaging this painting was particularly difficult. The reds in the painting are no so purple as the images suggest, but are a fine warm red, reflecting the character of the moon and landscape very nicely. The ultimate challenge of the impressionist artist... creating a work that is filled with peace, yet with also with energy.. Such is this work. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Lightning Storm over the Western Plains", Oil on Canvaspanel, 10 X 14 Inches A difficult task it is to capture the drama of an approaching storm... especially the effects of lightning. In this fine painting, the artist has captured moment of the flash, anticipating the roll of thunder. A fine and dramatic work. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon & Wind Torn Clouds", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches Luminous. On a moonlit night with a shredding wind, the clouds move quickly, presenting a challenge to any artist. E. E. Glass was a master at depicting the movement, as well as the light effects of the night. A complete painting despite its small size. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Impression, Wyoming Sunrise", Oil on Panel, 18 X 24 Inches Perhaps the most significant painting we have seen to date by the artist. This work is large and filled with color. Please view the detail images to get an idea of just how much color is in this work. A stunning accomplishment of true impressionism. |
Sold |
![]() |
Study for "Impression, Wyoming Sunrise", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches the finished study for the painting above. With the impressionists, the task was to define a scene with color. Emerson Glass was a superb draftman, able to catch every detail of whatever he was engaged in and took on the challenge of redefining the character of the scene with color. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon over the High Plains, Wyoming", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches The "high plains" are the rolling flatlands that rest
around 7,000 - 9,000 feet above sea level. The air is rarified and the
moon casts a brilliant light on the landscape, so that even after the
sun sets, the moon makes the night almost like day. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon over Mt. Moran, Tetons, Wyoming #1", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches The first of a pair of painting (see #2 below).
This painting
is the more subtle of the two. The clouds swirl around the light of the
full moon, fully reflected in the water. The colors range
from
deep blue-violet to red and yellow-green. The mood of
quietness
in this painting speaks of the nights in Wyoming. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon over Mt. Moran, Tetons, Wyoming #2", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches The second of a pair of painting (see #1 above). This painting is the more stark and dramatic of the two. These surely were painted on the same night, but this one with a slight hint of weather moving in. The intensity of the light and dark are increased for greater drama. |
Sold |

"Impression: Blazing Sunset", Oil on Panel, 8 X 10 Inches What can one say, except "explosion of color"?
In this fine
small painting, there is the utmost in experimentation of color and
color harmonies and contrasts. The greens vibrate with the
reds,
the violets and yellows vibrate with the deeper blues. A
magnificent example of the impressionist philosophy. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Sunset on an Ancient Tree", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches The light from the setting sun filters in over the rocks
and falls
at last on this fine old tree. Dispite the scars of time and
elements, the tree stands, the light only emphasizing its strength.
This is a later one for the artist, and
perhaps a
statement of how his years have stood the test of time? |
Sold |
![]() |
"Storm near Estes Park, Colorado", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches For anyone who has spent time in the mountains, there is
an
awareness that storms can come at any time. This painting
depicts
this drama of clouds rolling in
quickly and spots of light showing through. The light hits
the
foreground ridge of rocks and trees, framed with the movement of
clouds. A slim peek of distant mountains with a sliver of
blue
sky gives the painting great depth and perspective. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Roots", Oil on Panel, 14 X 20 Inches A large painting. Despite the realistic
subject and manner of painting,
this
ultimately is an abstract work, weaving the complex root
patterns
into a burst of color like flames or flower. The tree is
obviously fallen for many years, the roots thrust up in a sculptural
form, enhanced by their intricate texture, holes and striking
animation. This work was of importance to the
artist,
speaking of perhaps his own life intricacies. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Moon over Long's Peak, Estes Park, Colorado", Oil on Panel, 10 X 14 Inches This is a painting of peace and quiet. Long's
Peak and Mt.
Meeker rest under a full moon, while the glow of the sun turns
the
distant peaks a soft red. The same glow touches
the rocks, but it's the soft yellow light of the moon that sets the
tone. Much of the scene is in shadow, drawing our attention
to
the moon and colorful sky. |

"Big Tree at Sunset" (Study), Oil on panel, 8 X 10 Inches We are sometimes asked, "how do you determine a study or
finished
painting?". Good question. Some are obvious, in
that there
appears a larger version of the same composition. Other
times,
it's more of a comparison with similar works, so it's different with
every artist. This study is actually fully developed and
stands
on its own. |

"Wind Blown Pine at Sleeping Dog Rock", Oil on panel, 8 X 8 Inches This marvelous small painting is a vignette, not a
study. The
painting concentrates on the small bannered pine seen in the lower
right of the painting below ("Sleeping Dog Rock"). It is a
complete statement fully developed. The color reflects the
painting below, but the composition nicely develops the character of
the lone pine, growing among the rocks and surviving the challenge of
the elements. |

"Sleeping Dog Rock" (Clouds at the Timberline), Oil on panel, 10 X 14 Inches This painting takes us where few people go... a place
where one can
see for a hundred miles and leave the crowded cities behind, and feel
the vast space of the world in which we live. The image may
be
stark and real, but the painting leads us into a flow of dreamy
imagination of another life, another place. |

"Aspens among Red Rocks", Oil on panel, 12 X 16 Inches A wonderful statement in the primary colors... red, blue
and yellow.
The center of the painting is a virtual feast of colors, each
superimposed on the other to create a fine vibrating interaction.
Added to these are the scattered secondary colors of green
and
muted purples. A quality exercise in color. |

"Bannered Tree" (Windy Ridge, Setting Crescent Moon), Oil on panel, 9 X 12 Inches This was the place preferred by Emerson Glass.
Here he sought
the trees that showed the character of west, surviving even in the
harshest of circumstances. Literally, the storms of life hit these
trees, where the winds blow up to hurricane force, lightning strikes
and the snows run deep. |

painting. |

"Quarter Moon: Dusk at Leaning Rock", Oil on panel, 10 X 14 Inches There is a certain light that seems to glow but not
overwhelm just
at dusk. At the far right of the painting, below the pale
yellow
moon, is the muted lavendar of the distant settling evening.
The
tops of the trees and large rocks barely catch the last light.
Fine muted color to catch the most fleeting of moments of a
day. |

"Sunrise on a Lightning Blasted Tree", Oil on panel, 12 X 16 Inches The color of sunrise... the yellows and reds... make the
mood of
even a scarred tree seem tranquil. One would normally think
of
these colors as aggitation and heat. But here, they create an
overall peace and unity to the painting. The cooler reds in
the
rocks and complementary greens keep the scene alive. |

"Moon over Pikes Peak", Oil on panel, 12 X 16 Inches Even in the night paintings, the artist finds much color.

![]() |
"Fallen Pine, Rocky Mountains", Oil on panel, 11 X 14 Inches The fallen trees were a recurring theme for the artist. Perhaps there was some identifying with them... but more likely, it was the contrast in textures and colors that drew him to the subject. Probably both. |

![]() |
"Study in Green and Red" (Fallen Pine), Oil on panel, 8 X 10 Inches It's often about the color... here the sky is painted a fine green to teal color, with soft cool reds to compliment them.

"Sunrise in the Rockies", Oil on panel, 8 X 10 Inches A literal explosion of color. The images here do not do the painting justice at all.

Sold |
![]() |
"Moonlight on a Lightning Blasted Tree", Oil on panel, 7 X 9 Inches The beauty and the danger go hand in hand in the high elevations of the Rockies. The trees are exposed to wind and harsh conditions, but it's the lightning that often takes its toll. This tree was ripped apart by lightning, but yet survives, even in the harsh environment. |

"Windy Pinnacle", Oil on panel, 12 X 16 Inches If you have ever climbed to such a small knoll as this, you can understant the dynamics of nature in a profound way. The wind rules everything, steadily gnawing away at the rocks, bending and twisting the trees and shredding the clouds. Here, only the most tenacious life survives, setting a standard by with all other life can be measured. These paintings represent the life of the artist like no other can. |
Sold |

"Windy Pinnacle" (Study), Oil on panel, 7 X 9 Inches The ultimate expression of the impressionist manifesto, if you can call it that. The mixing of color one into the other; the movement of the clouds, quickly applied; the effects of lighting to dramtize the subject. A marvelous painting. |

"Setting Quarter Moon over the Tetons", Oil on panel, 12 X 16 Inches The reflection of the bright moon is everywhere... in the clouds, the water and, if you look closely, even in the outline of the mountains. The abundant reds nicely counterbalance the overall blue/green of the sky. |

"Bright Moon on a Rocky Ridge", Oil on panel, 10 X 14 Inches The rising moon is brilliant in the eastern sky, while the rest of the scene is in shadow. The focal point of the moon is brilliant with yellows and reds. Not exaggerated, for anyone who has been in the dark hills on such a night. |

"Sunlit Tree at 9,000 Feet", Oil on panel, 8 X 10 Inches Red, yellow, blue and green... the bright color for which the artist is known for.

Sold |

"Last Light, Rising Moon", Oil on panel, 22 X 30 Inches The largest and most major work we have seen by the artist. Suiting for it to be a moonrise painting. In the High Sierras of California, the last light of the setting sun, is backlit from the moon. A technical challenge for any artist. |

"Cornstalks, Quarter Moon", Oil on old wood panel, 6 X 8 Inches This is a very early work, judging from the old panel on which it was executed. We estimate this painting to be from the mid 1950's. The panel is fragile, but the hand of the artist is unmistakingly there. |
Sold |

"Wind River Range, Wyoming", Oil on panel, 14 X 18 Inches There are few places on earth more rugged and beautiful than the Wind River area in northwestern Wyoming.

"Moonrise" (Study), Oil on gessoed board mounted fiber board panel, 6 X 8 Inches An amazing small study painted on a black underpainting. The contrasts set off the rising moon and make a most believable interpretation of the light effects. The reds in the clouds add a vibrant color touch. |

"A Grizzly in the Rockies", Oil on panel, 10 X 14 Inches The wildlife paintings of Emerson Glass are just as much color expressions as they are depictions of animals. Here, the reds of the grizzly both blend and complement the blues, greens and yellows of the surrounding landscape. The purples of the distant mountains are immediately juxtaposed with the same reds for a startling contrast. |
Sold |
![]() |
"Rocky Top", Oil on panel, 8 X 11 Inches The windy ridge is a favorite theme of the artist. The color possibilites are endless, contrasting the blues of the sky with the warm tones of the subject foreground.

"Old Willow with Antelope", Oil on panel, 9 X 13 1/2 Inches When the sun sets, the light often filters through different aspects of a scene.

"Moose at Sunrise" (Yellowstone), Oil on panel, 10 X 14 Inches The final version of the study (below).

Study for "Lavender Sky, Twilight
with Setting Moon", Oil on Panel, 8 X 8
Inches At last light, interesting things happen to color in a landscape. The fading red glow of the setting sun combines with the darkness of the end of day. This brings an invasion of color into the deepening shadows and causes the various elements in the scene to glow with the same color. In this fine study, the work is actually a complete painting, with all details and effects in place, just as the larger version. |

"Lavender Sky, Twilight, with Setting Moon",
Oil on Panel, 16 X 16 Inches The large and final version of the study (below). The feel of this painting is remarkably similar to the study, the drawing, color and composition all bearing the same hand. Read the notes for the study, they all applying to this fine and major work by E E Glass. |

"Moose in the Timberline (Rocky Mountains)",
Oil on Panel, 12 X 16 Inches The freedom and energy found in the laying of paint in this fine work reflect that of the subject. The Rocky Mountains, from Colorado to Montana, have an edge to their atmosphere. The rare air and hardness of the land make for a toughness, both in animals and men. The moose typifies the character of the land and his presence is like a signal for requirement to survive. |

"Approaching Storm, Timberline", Oil
on Panel, 7 X 7 Inches Some lessons and characteristics come from the masters. Here, the influance of van Gogh is quite evident... the swirling clouds of color fit together well to make the statement of an approaching storm. The feel of the vulnerability of life at the timberline is felt through the energy of applied pigments. |

"Fallen Tree, Colorado" (Ponderosa Pine at
Timberline), Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches The fallen tree becomes a vehicle for carrying color for the artist.

"Rising Moon at the Timberline", Oil
on Panel, 13 X 18 Inches A major work by E. E. Glass. Please view the detail images of this work, where impressionist techniques are fully explored.

"Sunrise on an Outcropping", Oil
on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches This fine small painting exemplifies the artist's passion for color.

"Timberline", Oil on Panel, 9
X 12 Inches You feel like you are there. At the timberline, the trees struggle in the harsh environment, but some survive setting roots deep into the rocks for a strong grip and water.

"Stone Wall, San Antonio", Oil on Canvas Mounted
on Panel, 8 X 10 Inches Atmosphere and distance are beautifully rendered in this painting filled with arial perspective.

"Approaching Storm" (Thompson River, Colorado), Oil on
Panel, 10 X 14 Inches All the dynamics of nature are in play in this fine work... the approaching rain storm, the rushing mountain stream and the setting sun playing light in a dramatic scene.

"Sunset at the Rocks of Vedauwoo" (Wyoming), Oil on

"Hazy Sunset, Colorado", Oil on panel, 10 X 10 Inches A truely marvelous example of the American impressionist style (and reflecting great influance of Glass's friend, Birger Sandzen).

"Windswept Pines", Oil on panel, 12 X 16 Inches A similar work to "Hazy Day, Colorado"... this larger painting was executed under midday light with the very feel of the wind in the clouds... the conditions in which the pine is caused to bend and twist in directions contrary to it direction of preferred growth. |

"Our Last Night in Lindsborg", Oil on panel, 9 X 12
Inches If you read the biography of E. E. Glass, you will glimpse the affection he had for Birger Sandzen. As a bit of testimony to that feeling, this painting was titled by Nina Glass in conversations and discussions of this work. Her obvious respect for the older Sandzen was often referred to discussions with Mr. Tate. |

"Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado", Oil on panel,

"Kansas Twister, Setting Sun", Oil on panel, 6 X 8

"Windy Ridge, Rising Moon", Oil on panel, 10 X 14

Sold |
|

Study for "Windy Ridge, Rising Moon", Oil on panel, 5
X 7 Inches There are significant differences between this study and the finished studio work above. The light and dark contrasts are switched, making the rising moon an even more striking object. The streaking meteorite (or perhaps a comet) are not included in the larger work. There is actually a possibility that the sky object is Haley's Comet, which would have made this work to be executed in 1986, a year before the artist's death. A coincidence that the comet has always been an icon of impending death? |

"Emerald Sky, Rising Moon" (Ponderosa Pine), Oil on
panel, 12 X 12 Inches This is the quintescential work of Emerson Glass. The moon paintings are perhaps the most important of the artist's works, and this one is the finest of the moon paintings we have found to date. The execution in this painting is free and confident. The colors are bright and full of contrasts, yet the painting maintains the quiet mood of the rising moon, mingling briefly in the branches of the windswept ponderosa pine. A truly complete and satisfying work of art. |

"Sunrise at Chok-Wee-A-Ho", Oil on panel, 9 X 12 Inches
Little is known of the location or meaning of "Chok-Wee-A-Ho"... obviously an Indian name, but no references can be found for location or translation of this mysterious scene. The far ridge is painted in a very loose fashion, similar to the work of Vincent van Gogh, an artist known to be much admired by E. E. Glass. |

"Haystacks, Marquette, Kansas", Oil on panel, 9 X 12
Inches Marquette is a small farm community less than an hour's drive north from Lindsborg, Kansas. Quietly in the country in the early morning hours is another favorite time of Emerson Glass. This is one of the few works that is identified for location on the back of the painting. |

"Morning Light on Long's Peak" (Junipers and Pines),
Oil on panel, 13 X 18 Inches Emerson Glass is known to have lived in or near Estes Park, Colorado during the mid to later years of his life.

"About to Strike", Oil on panel, 7 X 10 Inches You can almost feel the scales glimmering off the back of this trout. A quickly executed impressionist painting of a difficult subject makes this work even more impressive. The reflections of the sky in the water and distortions caused by ripples are both executed in believable fashion. The lively paint strokes only add to the activity of both water and fish. Be sure to view the detail image on our gallery postings. |

"A Deer in the Aspens", Oil on panel, 8 X 10 Inches At first glance, one hardly notices the deer hidden behind the quaking white birch trees. Technically, this painting has layers of thick pigments, one on top of the other, overlapping to reveal color underneath. A challenge for an artist to keep the eye moving and interested in the central subject. |
Sold |
|
|
"A Pond in the Rockies", Oil on panel, 5 X 7 Inches This small work was probably done on location. It's size and obvious quickness of execution done en plein air define this work as a study. Apparently done with a setting sun in late winter, the cold of the evening was likely setting in on the artist as he worked. |
Sold |
|
|
"Cycles of Life", Oil on panel, 8 X 10 Inches In the high ridges and lakes of the Rocky Mountains, life often struggles above the timber line. The elements of cold and wind take their toll, both of life and form of the vegetation. Here, the colors of the painting are quickly applied in contrasts, adding to the feel of that struggle. |
Sold |
|

"Setting Sun, Setting Moon", Oil on panel, 9 X 12
Inches Again, the early evening hours are revealed in a dramatic expression of light. The sun is setting, as is the sliver of the early moon. Not so evident in our images are the subtle mixtures of color around the moon and the planet Venus... dabs of light that indicate the effect of even the smallest light and its effect on the atmosphere. A fine and satisfying work that attracts much attention, even from a distance. |

"Last Light at Sugarloaf", Oil on canvas mounted to
panel, 9 X 12 Inches This painting is an ultimate expression of the color interplays that the American impressionists are known for. The sky colors range from pinks and yellows on the left to violets and blues on the right. The colors are picked up in succeeding layers in the mountains, overlaid again and again to offer reflections of the colors of a cool late afternoon in the Rocky Mountains. This is a fine impressionist painting, evincing the full range of the color mastery of Emerson Glass. |

"Old Pine, Wyoming", Oil on panel, 9 X 12 Inches Even on a calm day, the feel of the old west is upon the landscape of Colorado and Wyoming.

Sold |

"Rocks at Vedauvoo, Wyoming", Oil on panel, 8 X 10

"Moonrise over the Rockies", Oil on Panel, 7 X 10 ½

"14° Below Zero, Windy", Oil on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches This painting is titled on the back... a testimony to the answering of the call to the real west by Mr. Glass. Undoubtedly done on location on a day with the tempterature and conditions evinced in the title. Few people would venture into the Rocky Mountains on such a day... however, an artist must if he is to convey the feel and reality of just such conditions. The pioneering spirit of the early artists who explored the west did not live in comfort, but carried their supplies on their backs and walked the trails to work. |

"Manitou Springs" (A Series of three Paintings), Oils
on Panel, 9 X 12 Inches each We have placed these three works together as one painting. They depict the same mountain range of Colorado at three different times of day... morning, midday and early evening with the rising moon. These works are very quickly done with brush and paint, with an urgency to them that reflects the need of the artist to capture the essence of the scene under different conditions. |

"Lone Pine", Oil on Panel, 12 X 16 Inches Color over color over color... that is the way of this fine painting. You can see in our images the striking overlays of color that add to the impact of this scene of morning on a high ridge in the Colorado Rockies. The clouds have a quick fleeing feeling to add to the motion of the atmosphere, the lower clouds in the valleys relfecting the same. A fine work depicting a difficult technical challenge of light and atmosphere. |

"Lemon Meringue Pie", Oil on Panel, 6 X 8 Inches The artist most certainly had a sense of humor... finding a whimsical but studied expression in even the most common of subjects. The pie is the subject, but the real object of this work is the expression of color. |

"The Cathedral Group" (Grand Tetons, Wyoming), Oil on
panel, 14 X 18 Inches This is a fairly early work... the ultimate techniques of the artist not yet fully developed.

The grandeur of the Tetons of Wyoming is fully developed, as if one were standing there in awe of the majestic mountains. |
