James Carter (Born 1948) is active/lives in Connecticut. James O Carter is known for Trompe l'oeil still life painting. James Carter is known for his for his airbrush acrylic paintings, serigraphs and lithographs. Some of his paintings have written text, and his style combines carefully controlled trompe l'oeil and abstract Surrealism influences.
James Carter was born in Port Chester, New York, in 1948. He studied at Silvermine College of Art in Connecticut and graduated with a B.F.A. from the Maryland Institute of Art. Carter’s paintings and prints have been exhibited at the Zenith Gallery, Washington, D.C., the Horizon Gallery, New York, and the Bell Gallery, Greenwich, Connecticut. His still lifes display the influence of Surrealist painters of the 1930s such as Rene Magritte and Max Ernst. Like the Surrealists, Carter juxtaposes unexpected objects – teacups, whales, and blue skies, for example – which often sit uncomfortably within his pictorial space. But he has also been influenced by the late-nineteenth-century American trompe l’oeil painters William Harnett and John Peto, as demonstrated by the great detail and surreal, tactile presence of the objects in his work.
Art Galleries that have exhibited his work include Newbury Fine Arts, Boston, MA; Telluride Gallery, Telluride, CO; Summa Gallery, New York City; The Flest, Paris, France; Uptown Gallery, New York City; Left Bank Gallery, Wellfleet, MA; Clibbon Gallery, Provincetown, MA; Upstairs Gallery, Los Angeles, CA

Photorealist painting cannot exist without the photograph. The first generation of American Photorealists includes the painters Richard Estes, Ralph Goings, Chuck Close, Charles Bell, Audrey Flack, Don Eddy, Robert Bechtle, Ron Kleemann, Richard McLean, John Salt, Ben Schonzeit, and Tom Blackwell. Photorealists routinely tackled mundane or familiar subjects in traditional art genres--landscapes (mostly urban rather than naturalistic), portraits, and still lifes. Later painters included John Baeder, Hilo Chen, Jack Mendenhall, David Parrish and Idelle Weber. less
