Thanks Jeff, I appreciate your comment. It is kind of thrilling to see what one can do with paint. There are things that might be worked out better. But, on to the nest one!
Hi Nancy. Just caught up on your paintings. All paintings down to and including the portraits are fantastic. It seems that you are a very good Portrait painter as well as Landscapes. Also this latest still life is brilliant. There is a touch of Sezanne there. All wonderful Nancy. All the best. Vic.
You may be right about Cezanne` Victor. Thanks for checking in. I could not get onto you site, but love the train depot! The shapes are wonderful. nancy
Thanks Debi, It would be fun to talk art with you again. Sometimes the time factor affects my work. Mostly it seems to come from an intuitive place. I aspire to the energy & color & spontaneous brushwork your amazing paintings contain.
When painting en plein air I’m drawn into a deeper sense of the beauty of the landscape. Capturing in paint some essence of God’s handiwork is an intriguing thrill. Shapes and colors change constantly via the elements, like a kaleidoscope turning as it is held up to the light. Sunlight and shadow, the movement of a breeze, makes painting en plein air so much more stimulating than painting from a photo.
I work to capture that flash of wonder the light reveals to me. Spontaneity contributes to the energy that comes through in my painting. My painting is a celebration of light and color. Light is a metaphor of Christ the creator. Light reveals color, exposing immediate substance. It reveals depth and detail. Light communicates relationships, revealing nuances that continuously change, yet have a timeless source. My Paintings are for sale in the sales gallery of Butler Institute of American Art & The Hoyt Art Center Gift Shop & on Etsy as "Pleinairimpressions". It is my privilege to be a participant in various juried artist shows, Denver Plein Air in Colorado, Ohio Plein Air Society, Butler Museum of American Art, & The Hoyt in New Castle, PA.

This is one solid and fantastic painting! Colors are so clear and lovely, and that towel. WOW! Stripes rule.
A far cry from what you are doing now in Colorado. The new work is so very, very loose and full of feeling. It is nice to see your progression.
How do you think Colorado has changed you and your work. Would be a nice post to talk about that.
Thanks Debi,
