Alysanne McGaffey This 1981 watercolor on paper of an abstracted landscape with ducks is by Bay Area artist Alysanne McGaffey (1931-2018). Born in Seattle, McGaffey moved to San Fr ancisco in the mid 1950s to study at SFAI with Bay Area Figurative pioneers Joan Brown, Nathan Oliveira, Jay DeFeo, Bruce McGaw, and Manuel Neri. McGaffey also took classes at CCAC and UC Berkeley, and received an MFA in Painting from the University of San Francisco. She became involved in community arts organizations, holding offices in several, including the Coastal Arts League and Pacifica's Cultural Arts Commission. Eventually McGaffey's gaze moved from the figure to the landscape, and she spent the last thirty years traveling the Northern California coast painting watercolor seascapes. 1981Watercolor on Paper 12"x9" unframed Signed lower right.
