Rendered in textured abstract expressionist technique, this vertical composition captures the quiet stillness of a lakeside scene at dusk, with a soft gradient sky transitioning from blush to pale blue and reflections shimmering across the water’s surface. Layers of thick, stippled pigment form the treeline and foreground, while a graceful branch draped in Spanish moss stretches across the upper corner, adding depth and atmosphere. Signed “Perez” lower left and marked on the back of the canvas. Housed in a faux bamboo-style wood frame with a linen liner. A moody and evocative Southern scene from a celebrated regional artist.

C. Lewis Perez was an artist of extraordinary talent wo is best known for landscape paintings featuring three dimensional or raised trees, bushes and leaves. Perez, whose real name was Chester Lewis (1923-2010) worked also under the trade names, Louis Perez, Lewis Perez, and often simply Perez throught the 70's, 80's, and 90's, until his unofficial retirement from painting around 2000. Perez began his career as an artist in the Old Town area of Chicago and later moved his studios and residence to suburban northwest Indiana. Prior to becoming an artist, Perez was an Illinois registered pharmacist and his curiosity and knowledge of chemical compounds led him to develop a type of paint that resulted in a 3D subject that is extremely durable, easy to clean and simply unlike any other painting on the market at the time.
