View of a home overlooking the sea.  French art commentator and editor Bernard Dato had this to say about "A La Costa:" (translation)  According to me, William Buffet's alchemy (one of its secrets?), consists in mixing two confrontations: the graphic against the pictorial, and the abstraction against the figuration.

Buffett mixes all this as nobody else and, even when he approaches the abstraction, the reality of the place, the depth of the space, the breath of the wind and the rustle of the sea are always there, and we are immersed...

A graduate of The Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, William Buffett has sold his work all over the world. He is known for his tropical townscapes, featuring palm trees and glimpses of the ocean. As a native of Southern California, he represents these landscapes in a delicate and sensual way with subtle colors and intuitive compositions. After formal training in the arts, he moved to New Orleans to see the jazz players and hear their music. The painting of jazz musicians is his true passion and he seems to capture the sound of the music in his dynamic paintings. A world traveler, he has visited Europe, Mexico and the Far East studying the great art collections. He enjoys success as a portrait painter, designer and printer of limited edition serigraphs and as a widely distributed poster artist, in addition to exhibiting and selling his original paintings. Today his work is in the collections of universities, corporations, and private individuals in America, Europe, Australia and Japan, as well as many islands in the Caribbean and Pacific. He presently lives and works in Nashville, Tennessee and is married to the well known abstract artist and interior designer Brenda Buffett.
