Jimmy Longacre_subjective realist landscape paintings_ BULL CREEK REVISITED


When I find one of my old paintings that I think can improve or that I'm interested in experimenting with, I use the painting as the reference for a new interpretation.  Interpretation is my game!  For me, every subject is an invitation to reinvent what is there.  God made it beautiful.  My job is to use those clues to invent and design a painting of my own.  I'm not interested in trying to render the facts as they exist in nature.  I want to use them as suggestions for shape, value, color and edge arrangements.  Fun!

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

  #mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study.  We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that.  I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it.  I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas.  Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available  GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website
