Traveling in north Michigan we saw lots of colors. Colors were about 80% this weekend. The beauty of creation in nature never ceases to inspire and awe. I don’t claim to paint exclusively plein-air, however this kind of beauty calls for a lot of direct observation. I’ll hope to post a few more of these works soon.
The idea to do a small daily painting began for me in November of 2006.
It was a way for me to make my paintings available to a growing number
of collectors. Since large works of original art cost much more than
many people are willing or able to pay, these small original paintings
can be purchased for little more than the cost of a very good meal in a
nice restaurant. I like that because it’s a very democratic idea to
make original art available so that many more can have a collection of
small original art in their homes.
I aim to create a new painting every few days. The paintings are small,
either 6” x 6” (15.2cm x 15.2cm) or 5” x 7” (12.7cm x 17.8cm) and range
in subject matter depending on the particular ideas I'm currently
thinking about. My interests derive from my travels and living in
China, Western Europe and here in the USA. My current paintings are
acrylic on gesso primed board and have a small edge or border so they
can be immediately hung without a frame. All paintings posted are for
sale unless indicated and I have shipped throughout the USA and
internationally.
I make a major effort to answer any questions you may have about my
art, my blog or my experiences as an artist, teacher and traveler.
Please feel free to send an email question on any subject and I’ll do
my best to give a timely answer.
