Hearne Pardee makes paintings, drawings and collages from landscape. His subjects range geographically from Maine to the American West. His approach combines Impressionism and European modernism with the tradition of landscape painting in America. Working directly outdoors, he documents the natural landscape and its transformation by development. His studies of agricultural, industrial and suburban sites lend the subjects personal resonance through their emphasis on space and color.

    Hearne Pardee was educated at Yale University, the New York Studio School, and Columbia University. He exhibits regularly in New York City at the Bowery Gallery. He also contributes reviews to Artnews and other art publications. He is currently Professor of Art at the University of California, Davis.
