Asheville art museum



This painting was painted in Madison Country North Carolina in a place call "Big Pine", it is a landscape of tobacco barns and farmland, and is now in the Asheville Art Museum Collection 2020.66.06@Linda Cheek.

If you are interested in what six women have to say about my painting, the link below will take you to the video.

 And thank you Megan Pyle for your creation of this video "Meeting the Moon", what fun "life is short; art is long; always a student."

Almost abstract

,

 A 11v14 oil painting, painted on the edge of a riverbank, starting with an underpainting of just big shapes, getting the values as close as I could and paint as fast as I could [but not thinking] with a large brush. I ended with a very loosely almost abstract painting. Shapes,color and spontaneity.

What on the easel?


 Two acrylic paintings 8X10 on panel, of an urban landscape. 

Color vs, Grays. I think the importance of painting with grays can be as important as any primary or secondary color. It is easier to look at a red car and decide which red to paint, than to decide what value it is. Thinking in terms of values instead of color.

Historic Buildings of Asheville NC


 Historic Asheville NC

A series - five 12x9 W/C paintings of some of the buildings in Asheville,NC

The first one in this series is the Flatiron building in downtown Asheville. Just across the street is the bistro on Heywood Ave. The third one is of the Gove Arcade building at the Carmel's bar.





The painting below is from the Thomas Wolf parking lot, with a view of the Basilica of Saint Lawrence Church.

The fifth, painting is of one of the buildings at Pack Square, The Posana restaurant and the patio, which is across the way from the Asheville Art Museum.
I added one more, a small W/C of the sunset, looking down Patton Ave and the Kress building.
