Meet My Inspired by Cezanne Collection!
These qualities are what I find charming about Cezanne's work. If you've hung around with me a while, you'll know Cezanne is one of the artists that I don't call a favorite, yet I'm fascinated by the fact that I can stare at his paintings like a hungry person. Why?
Still Life Inspiration from Sir William Nicholson (1872-1949)
I almost have the feeling that he would set about to paint something and honestly not know how he was going to pull it off. I don’t think he had any doubt in his ability to pull it off, it’s more that he was unafraid of different techniques and even rather unconventional points of view- odd angles, even including rather odd items or compositional elements. His unique perspective makes his work feel fresh to me.
Wallflowers and Wallpaper
I have once again fallen behind terribly at updating the blog. There are so many things to juggle in life, not to mention actually painting!
After getting back from Italy, Joseph and I bought a little brick house that we fell in love with, our teenage daughter got Chicken Pox, and we had to have one of our dogs put to sleep. Then of course we get to settle into the new old house and repair some things.
