About the artist.

Raphael Senseman 1870-1966 was active in New Jersey as a noted watercolor painter, Senseman supported his family with his artwork for over seventy years. Often he was a visitor from his environs of the South Jersey woods to Washington DC to sell his work in that area.
He rarely worked in oil, because oil was expensive. Senseman had a good eye not only for local beauty, but for the local market. He made art out of South Jersey's woods, waterways, and changing seasons - working on as many as six pictures at a time - and made them affordable to working people. No wonder Senseman is still beloved by fans - like the dozen people gathered at the society's museum on Park Boulevard in Camden for a one-day exhibit. About 20 watercolors and oils were on display, most depicting pastoral vistas. His work, especially watercolor are held in many private collections across the U.S. See less
