<p></p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here is a batch from my personal inventory...many having not seen the light of day in some years. While a few are local, the vast majority are from my first workshop plein air venture to Juneau, Alaska where I had a great group of artists to work with. For a number of them, painting on location was fairly new and for others how to discipline and set up the palette and work with a specific palette strategy was to go to mode of instruction. Its been said 90% of the time something is not quite right with a painting, it will come down to an issue of values. We limited the palette number of colors to about five pigment colors, and limited values to three plus white...that is- dark, mid and light values plus white. And demonstrated how to utilize halftones as a stage separate from the initial breaking of value groups down. The painting process feels nearly like the subject is painting itself. As time goes on, more color is added...but in Juneau on this trip was the fact of so much overcast skies and if it wasn't about to rain, did...though for short periods. A lot of grays were observed. <br /><br />Decided it was time to let these oil studies find welcoming homes...and offering them at low ball prices to make that welcoming possibly happen. As a person of faith there are times to let things go at a fairer than fair price or even gift them. Scripture says, "freely you have received, and freely you should give" and I feel more than blessed painting. First, I consider having developed eyes that see a gift that pays myself rich dividends...not to mention the emotional joyful mental and spiritual good health painting brings with brush held in hand.<br /><br />If interested...private message me on Facebook, or Instagram, or leave a message thru this blog, or thru my artist site at FASO...and I'll red dot the work as soon as I can to indicate SOLD. Also, there are a number of smaller batches below posted previously still available for you to look over also if interested. To purchase, I will provide an encrypted safe PaypalME link...and factor $7-10 for shipping. Thank you</span><br /><p></p> <p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyRHYj33m09zkBMlxu_4UkV0Qs93gi2fAax6pTkWMPUo6kuiAk3PdVvlhbjV3hcJfiJOp7XxvhlSKp83wSsoAXUoqW5p8h9CZSSdLpy2rxcLlSCpo3ERgffN8AgMbIsXMVjGnj602jxBjgYx_jJUtTic_7jjCdSDDil9MbJiHFOE7N6T18CIHu0Gf1Fw0/s1600/chilcats-gastineauchannel8x10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto;

font-size: medium;">Roughly 17 or 18 years ago, I came home from my teaching day and logged onto Wetcanvas online artist's community. I was one of the original staffers of this nearly first such internet artist community. There were six of us including the founder, and I believe but four forums. Over the next thirteen years of my tenure before retiring, I would help create eight forums and moderate all of them, co-moderating the Plein Air forum. When I retired there were about 360,000 artist members from around the world...<br /><br />On this particular night, (moderators tend to get complaints they have to check out, and request/insist the gruff individuals play nice, or give warnings and even suspensions), it was brought to my attention a few artists were brow beating. By that I mean those a tad narcissistic and a gift to the world of art, (legends in their own minds) and everyone had best listen to their expertise or expect bullying and vitriol. Well..our site community user agreement to join and participate did not allow for such behavior. Again, just "play nice"...<br /><br />On this occasion was insistent that good paintings can ONLY come from the best materials, the best brushes..and we were talking $40 on up brushes. Many artists, (including myself) are not finding themselves able to afford such brushes. I myself paint with what I believe are supreme...called Rosemary Brushes, out of England, favoring the Ivory ...but, when I read into the arguments and scrolled, something in me snapped. Not in a "get in your face" way...but, to go out, prove a point concerning talent as a primary consideration along with dogged determination...and paint. I cut myself four sticks from alder brush near our home and headed to the local Mill Pond to paint setup on location (plein air).<br /><br />I used no other brushes, did use my finger to smear and push some paint, but otherwise it was all applied by these sticks that I had whittled with a knife. The sticks themselves (which I have kept) still have the stain of the paint from that day. An 8"x 10" oil...which I consider now these many years later iconic and special.<br /><br />It is time I think this work finds a new home..perhaps gets rightly framed upon its arrival, and I am making this painting on primed panel AND all four of the stick "brushes" available. At one time, I would have sold this for about $550...and $75 more for a good frame, but...wanting to clear out some of my personal inventory I will make it and the sticks available for $300....contact me either thru Facebook, Facebook messaging, my blog here, or my artist's page at FASO<br /><a href="https://www.larryseiler-artist.com/">FASO artist site</a><br /><br />And note...if you click upon the image, you will get a larger image to pop up and look at closer.<br /><br />BTW...I took photos, went back online at Wetcanvas and shared the painting. I patiently waited until I received positive comments and review. It was THEN that I revealed my very expensive special brushes...which ended the bullying quickly, and of course reminding the artists once more to "play nice!"<br /><br /><br /></span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQdMhVJFP6lqjzKsvW6gPWT4bjPksPu8PagXtNOihLc24ZXdVMeLST14VdrvwdZG1jDySTNZQw74-gcRpw7N6PDcgGzvIpTF6vurAwuVTXUZM-XXjN4htP_UgK-2soq1oNbH7kNFRUDlHSuPg2DDhANZ61UTIXHpFEDSxYeoMWnZmvyeI3zZr6pZYz/s1400/millpondrd-stickpainting8x10PA.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1128" data-original-width="1400" height="323" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQdMhVJFP6lqjzKsvW6gPWT4bjPksPu8PagXtNOihLc24ZXdVMeLST14VdrvwdZG1jDySTNZQw74-gcRpw7N6PDcgGzvIpTF6vurAwuVTXUZM-XXjN4htP_UgK-2soq1oNbH7kNFRUDlHSuPg2DDhANZ61UTIXHpFEDSxYeoMWnZmvyeI3zZr6pZYz/w400-h323/millpondrd-stickpainting8x10PA.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mill Pond Access 8"x 10" oil plein air $300</span><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge1nZFPLGwrUZfre5NcZaGPHguLUGv11JVAJ4CGEI85TD_DPedBIB1F4TxGTko9_5RRg3pBdJysvsYT8vicC9U-kUZsgoS4Dl81WxetBgmyWc1GDQNWZ3eX4E74frIeCI08_tMHRkhf3wko6iR4gPTSYBrdvzbZXkwbI0eel6vrAZGii-aJBrEc1kj/s1400/detail-millpondstickpaintingPA.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="891" data-original-width="1400" height="255" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge1nZFPLGwrUZfre5NcZaGPHguLUGv11JVAJ4CGEI85TD_DPedBIB1F4TxGTko9_5RRg3pBdJysvsYT8vicC9U-kUZsgoS4Dl81WxetBgmyWc1GDQNWZ3eX4E74frIeCI08_tMHRkhf3wko6iR4gPTSYBrdvzbZXkwbI0eel6vrAZGii-aJBrEc1kj/w400-h255/detail-millpondstickpaintingPA.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">detail</span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXXFXtLftTEcbLCykFn9MT_Bkr46ZWb2kkw98n3xDEdSUshAKq_-oS2tXCF2POtssbvz3IbV-3jQ3X9bQEME8NMRb9c-kPK07JTafRnW0IHqGwlKNtUzAtyflJtD20f6b028nPv1pP1JVyImaUGszPorURC1L-7XHMdK2bZDozv7fvddowpxLBSCfF/s1400/alder-paintsticks.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="742" data-original-width="1400" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXXFXtLftTEcbLCykFn9MT_Bkr46ZWb2kkw98n3xDEdSUshAKq_-oS2tXCF2POtssbvz3IbV-3jQ3X9bQEME8NMRb9c-kPK07JTafRnW0IHqGwlKNtUzAtyflJtD20f6b028nPv1pP1JVyImaUGszPorURC1L-7XHMdK2bZDozv7fvddowpxLBSCfF/w400-h213/alder-paintsticks.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The four alder stick brushes for this painting</span><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /></p>...Larryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13869250615451794385noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7026807870857197975.post-36388228580469138382023-06-12T13:11:00.001-07:002023-06-12T13:11:34.362-07:00Third Batch of "Finding New Homes" smaller works Sale<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Here are more "out the door to new home" hopefuls...smaller works and studies, as most reasonable prices I can offer.

This means some works that have accumulated need to physically "go" somewhere. Either to new homes or possibly another burn pile. Going to a new home means I am building the possibility of a dream to make my hopes for a new studio/workshop space sure and you are helping me make that dream possible. Such a space is to my thinking a necessity.<br /><br />So, I am posting works as I photograph them, rethink their need to remain in my inventory. Many are earlier plein air works, some studies and experiments. My work usually prices per sq inch...and know these will be marked roughly 70% less than my current work these sizes.<br /><br />Feel free to contact me and we can arrange to work things out, I have been known to work out payments to stretch things out more manageably. I am not at this "Covid" moment beholding to a gallery as for my pricing consistencies. Whatever I sell...I intend to go toward savings toward this new workshop construction...hopefully come this Spring I'll be able to have workers break ground. <br /><br />What I will do upon inquiry is provide a "paypal.me" link for those comfortable with online encrypted safe payments. We will have to discuss other arrangements. (*Note shipping will be an additional expense on the buyer's part) <br /><br />*click on an image to see a larger view...</span><br /><br /><br /></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: large;">Time to go thru my hutch of accumulated small oil studies</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have four smaller works, oil studies here that I will let go one-hundred dollars or best offer...contact me. Each will fit in a small ideal cardboard box I have for shipping these...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The first two are plein air studies, the first done in Alaska around 2007...off Douglas Island at Juneau, Alaska...the other near home here in NE Wisconsin, off Alderton Rd...four miles north of Laona...both are 5"x 7" oils on pumice panel. Pumice is mixed with gesso primer, adds some absorbing grit qualities I like, lightly sanded that receive paint well.<br /><br />The next two are small wildlife studies, 5"x 4" Redhead drake, alert pose swimming, and looking down onto a black bear and Pike River in northern Wisconsin...painting in higher key... 5"x 7" oil on birch...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I will provide you a paypal.me link for easy quick secure payment...or can create a paypal official invoice pay link...<br /><br />*Note...click or select, and a larger image will come up to view...thanks</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The sketching of notans, and composing or fleshing out a scene in a small sketchbook is not an uncommon practice among plein air painters, (those that set up on location and paint from life). It has long been my practice, and in my workshop instruction...to encourage students to carry a small board with sections taped off (to simulate larger possible compositions) and do 10-15 minute oil comps, to push ideas, composition, color palette strategies, and light keys.<br /><br /><br />I used to prime MFD board to carry along, but since I've been prepping Thunderbolt cardstock (Kraft ph neutral 80# paper), I have found it more convenient both to paint, and then thereafter to store (either in a plastic bin, paintings separated by wax coated paper...or a small art portfolio). There are just a couple examples...of practical application.<br /><br /><br />Setup on the Temperance River...along the west shores of Lake Superior, in Cook County...and painting in the Grand Marais Plein Air event...I was looking at the mouth, the light, visitors (often skipping stones once they got out there), and realized that morning, that the light was definitely going to change in a hurry, and change the whole sense of the drama in the small gorge. I decided that a couple quick 4"x 6" taped off prepped cardstock paintings would be ideal...to decide if I would like the horizon of the distant water high with less sky, or low with more sky...and get the shadows down?<br /><br /><br />It proved to be a good plan...after choosing the second quick study, because as I believed it would...the light having moved into the gorge created an entirely different setting. The subject remained worthy as a reference, but it no longer held true to the compelling drama that I wanted.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Following the opening of the AIS event, I had to drive 4 hours home as I was teaching a plein air workshop next morning, and that another 1-1/2 hours west of where I live. Following the workshop that day, I and my wife drove back up to Door County for the duration of the opening AIS events.<br /><br />My paint students proved to be fairly new at painting outdoors on location, so I demonstrated a simple palette, first a values driven black and white mix of a dark, mid, light plus white...and then did the same with color choosing several dominant colors of the scene to set up my mixing palette with a dark, mid, light of each color. If the work required more color transitions, I would leave the option over to include two halftones to each main value group.</span></span></div>

I ended up painting a 12"x 16" of a sailboat tied up in Ephraim, but scoped out a spot by the public beach looking across over at the town. I thought it would be fun to do a small study, but make that distant land mass appear nearer. Then, did another study of a sailboat tied up at Clark Park, in Fish Creek...but, decided to play with the daylight reference photo and try to pull it off as a dusk, or early nocturne piece. Both are 6"x 8" oils...on paper...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Had an opportunity at the Big Easel and Bistro of Wabeno, our arts consortium, to see this Mark 9 (1954-60s) Jaguar, and it had "paint me" in its setting all over it. These are two small paper studies with oils for that reason...</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Have spent a lot of time on the water this summer. With 1200 lakes in our national forest, it is hard to not give in to such.

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Perhaps one of the most life enrichening experiences was taking the White Pass train out of Skagway with my wife. We were on a cruise thru the Inside Passage, our second cruise, and teaching plein air workshops. <br /><br />We had been given a heads up to take the last rear car, because then one could go out the car door and stand on a gated balcony and see as well as photograph the whole experience. The trip for us was about 37-40 miles before having to return, and I stood for perhaps 80% of that. Quite breathtaking...</span></span>...Larryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13869250615451794385noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7026807870857197975.post-1709255318763430792018-04-19T10:59:00.000-07:002018-04-19T10:59:08.981-07:00Peeking Sunlight...oil on cardstock...<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">A study that took some personal sticktoitiveness and goading on, as we just got hit with another 18" of snow our third week into Spring...and was almost hard not to feel some weariness with the season...hahaa...but, I did finish.

When one side is done...the first few are dry, get pulled off and put into a bin with wax coated paper sheets to separate one painting from another, and stored. Eventually I take those out and put them in black art portfolios, which make it convenient to take an armload of paintings in one binder form to share.</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Inspired by a lot of time on Lake Michigan fishing with my father, both of us serving in the US Navy (on what my dad called "the Big Pond!") and Lake Superior not too far north of our home in NE Wisconsin, just below Upper Michigan. Love surf...time on the water, being around water. Painting at a number of events. I have done my share of plein air work up in Marquette, Michigan off Wetmore Landing, Presque Isle, and so forth...and over in Grand Marais, MN (about three hours north of Duluth). This study is much like my normal painting efforts to simplify the complexity of water, reflections, transparency, rocks, bottom, light penetration. Fun stuff...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Some of my wildlife art past emerges every so often...and these are quick and simple studies. Using the largest brush, a flat possible. I am a brush wiper...meaning instead of a separate brush for color, values...I will get mileage from one, the largest I can paint...and exhaust what is possible with that one larger brush before moving to the next smaller brush. It helps me focus on essential suggestive brushwork and constrain temptations to detail.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have long had this love affair for the mundane here in northern Wisconsin. Plein air events which gather artists from around the country is fun...but for new participants to that event and location, every scene appears as eye candy though local residents have likely well accustomed to shutting out the normal.<br /><br />I like to imagine were a local...what things would I be sensitive to in my daily passing, things that have long become passive and the mundane. <br /><br />In northern Wisconsin where I live in a national forest, are 1200 lakes, rivers and streams and many many waterfalls. Perhaps 80-90% of my paintings tend to have water in them in some form. I grew up on water fishing Lake Michigan with my father, and then like my father served in the US Navy or what we liked calling, "the Big Pond!"</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />But...I have come to enjoy the design I sense within chaos of simple things like dead matted grasses of early Spring...bits of green emerging to promise warmer days. I like the chaos of many vertical grasses and tag alder stems and branches. It is fun to attack the negative space (space in-between and thru) which will define with much greater ease the suggestion of the complex without laboring to depict actually each thing.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So much around us in nature carries a natural asymmetry (informal visual balance) that may need a little fleshing out to see it.

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I enjoy painting portraits, have done many over the years. I have always found it interesting and even amusing people thinking of the artist as one thing, say a wildlife artist...are then surprised and will say something like, "OOOoohhh, didn't know you could paint portraits TOO!!"<br /><br />As an artist, well aware we operate with a visual language of shape, color, values, line, texture, space, form...I make it my point when painting to concern myself with the color of light, the shape I need to pay attention to an put down, and the proper values (light and dark) and then let the viewer recognize the what of what I am painting. I have often been asked because of my experience painting water scenes, "how do you paint water?" and tongue in cheek, yet quite serious, I respond, "the same way I paint someone's nose"<br /><br />Think about it...what is it we see that is not a shape, does not have color and value? Armed with such simplistic philosophy, I paint without fear that because I am unfamiliar with a subject I ought not be able to paint it. Because I AM FABULOUSLY EQUIPPED as an artist to see, and recognize the visual language of what I am seeing.<br /><br /><br />I have often painted myself over the years, which is a habit of many artists. Sometimes more flattering, sometime not so much. Without my beard now at 63yrs of age...I appear about ten years younger. My hair is still relatively dark, though is streaked now with gray hair. With a cap on...the white beard or gotee seen only advances my appearance of age. I am prone to become bored with my appearance. My hair grows uncharacteristically fast. I can have my hair short for the golf season (as I did coaching), and then not cutting it til the next golf Spring season...grow enough hair to put it up in a ponytail. I am not stretching the truth by any at all.<br /><br /><br />The artist intensely studying...looks intense, sometimes appears angry, eyebrows furled, low...and in this quick cardstock study...I appear even tired and overall older. But, such studies are about being truthful and putting down what you see. I come off here I think...looking like a grumpy old man! hahaha...</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have a proven past...where labored many hour works endlessly rendered and detail turned out hyper realistic paintings, but starting to paint plein air in the mid 90s more or less began my change. Nature is not mindful, doesn't care that you are painting...and the light is often very fickle here in northern Wisconsin...not like the long days of endless summer Alaska light, or hot days of Arizona and the Southwest. We have a saying in Wisconsin that if you don't like the weather, wait around for fifteen minutes.<br /><br /><br />Thus, the power and efficiency of each brushstroke became critical...no paint a stroke...go back and fix. I have put out videos and taught workshops on brushwork alone. My creed when I determine it...which is most often, is how I view "alla prima" which means to "start and finish in one sitting"...is that a "brushstroke laid is a brushstroke stayed"...thus, getting mileage out of the intended brushstroke to suggest, with the precise color and value you intend.<br /><br /><br />With "studies"...I have no agenda to prove myself, only to gather and put down. With "Ken"...I could have striven for a more perfect likeness...but such was not my goal. It was to put down shapes, color and value squinting the eyes with immediacy and a sense of urgency. Were I to opt...photo references as well as studies depicting color, light, the moment in a study could reproduce a larger in-studio more labored and rendered work.<br /><br /><br />As it turns out...as I have found, many have put it to me that my attempts to get things down urgently and efficiently in a study are an art in and of themselves. I do enjoy them...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Calling this "Seven Mile Walk" because our off road vehicle appeared at the time to have quit running, and were this far from where we needed to get back, none too long before it would get dark. Beautiful view in Oregon</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #990000;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: large;">Getting my first ATV quad run down how to ride, my son figuring my past years riding motorcycles would be enough that I'd catch on. He was right...but it was also my first time taking such a vehicle (that was on site and not mine), and trust I could handle it going nearly a mile down the mountains to a creek bottom below. The final stretch was a severe sharp angle having to keep it in low first gear all the way, careful not to hit the front brakes to flip end over end. My son went before me...which gave me some confidence, still I was in the moment looking for evidence to hold confidence in "myself!" I admit...I was nervous...but, I wasn't NOT going to do this. Lots of good memories out in Ontario and the mountains...</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

So, it is more my honest go for the jugular feel what I am seeing and experiencing. From books I have an current sciences, it appears that the eye of women are physically structured to be sensitive and see color better than men. I admire many women painters...and feel for myself, color requires more a conscientious and intellectual intent. It may be so as well for my female artist peers, no different than I...but the joy so many wonderful women painters flow I wonder if the science is not right, and I think so many are just fortunate to have that color sense "edge..." I feel I have to work for what I manage.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">This above was just sent out this morning heading to Alaska, and a partner to bless another...5"x 9" oil. I love backlit subjects. Perhaps now have two retinal tears (left and right eye) and laser surgery I should rethink my plein air habits (though this was a studio study). I like the opposing contrasts of light, dark...warm and cool colors. Painting is for me..."the color of light"...and putting marks down alla prima efficiently...cleanly is most satisfying.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Another (above) that went out this morning, 6"x 8" study of sunset light thru Spring flooded timbers along the Peshtigo River not far from home. I did an original plein air study, then this studio experiment, and then a 16"x 20" larger linen that was accepted and exhibited this past year in the American Impressionist Society Exhibition out in Utah. What a wonderful honor that was. This piece is actually available should any wish to inquire...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Many may not know, but I paint portraits, started by painting wildlife for the first seventeen years of my career winning various state and regional awards, stamp designs, etc; and then I did "Sporting Portraits" for a good while. I am fascinated by treating the face like a landscape...a fore, mid and background with similar rules of depth perspective, warm and cooling color and values. My small studies are close in keeping to "mud heads" where labored rendering and likenesses are not near important as paying attention to the color of light, the shapes and values of those lights and artfully playfully with the brush applying paint. </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, I have been on an adventure somewhat removed from many other things because of this obsession of painting small cardstock studies. Prepped on this paper to receive oils, drying within 1-2 weeks, I can store as many as seventy paintings in a smaller four inch deep plastic bin with lid, separating each with wax coated papers. In time, I bought a couple black portfolios, black pages with clear protective sleeves and have been able to carry all these original oils underarm to share. Pretty crazy really...</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The advantages painting these <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">small studies has proved ENORMOUS for my prolific habits, now retired from teaching art and use of a larger classroom, my years and years of books, materials home. A nice house, three bedroom, but no basement, <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">smaller closets. One bedroom is where I do my studio painting when not outdoors painting plein air, and where I practice my music and song writing/producing. My closet is full of guitars and sound reinforcement equipment<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">, a corner of the room taken by a computer used for recording tracks of my music. <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have an attached room between garage and the house full of framed works, and no room really to grow.<br /><br /><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have plans and intent to build a 16<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">'x 20' outbuilding on my property, with a loft for storage where I can paint, carve, greet <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">the curious that s<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">top by. But, what to do a<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">bout that habit of painting? By <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">painting on <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">cardstock and small, I can work out ideas, experiment, use what I think are successful studies to then lead to larger in-studio <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">stretched or <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">linen panels. But, the sheer volume of painti<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ngs I ca<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">n do without deficit of lack of space doing th<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ese <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">has been energizing!<br /><br /><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In the meantime...I<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> have come to know from time to time friends on social media that share dire situations, urgent care needs, medi<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">cal life saving procedures...and quite frankly could use some help. They may have go fund me pages up, they may have links, and li<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">kely a Facebook page <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">that people can join...understand the challenges being faced, and enjoin and partner to face those challenges together. <br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Thus comes the purpose of me sharing these small studies here. <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I do not know truly how ma<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">ny of these small studies I will let go. My original intent was to approach gallery owners to see the lot of them, and hope they might see <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">a half dozen they would want me to paint much larger and give me space in their gallery. The one thing I am intending, is to <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">take high res<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">olution images of the work, and eventually put together a DIY coffeetable typ book of the works, with descriptions, perhaps one or two <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">step by step instruc<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">tionals and thoughts near the end of the book.
