Boston Public Gardens
This is a painting I did in acrylics, back in 1995, when I lived in Boston. I was still very much influenced back then by the pointillistic technique of Monet. I have since moved to oils, which are very rich and beautiful and allow glazes. /paintings
Northport Sunset
A watercolor scene in Long Island, painted many years ago. I used magic white to accentuate the reflections on the water./paintings
Wuthering Heights
The final painting I did in my landscape class. I uses a thick wooden panel, and my imagination. It took many layers of paint to start to create a texture I desired. Prior to that, the paint was just seping into the unprimed wood and tyhe look was very dull and flat.
Ocean
A painting I did last week in my landscape class at the School of Visual Arts (SVA). I used rough brushstrokes to emphasize the dynamics of the waves and clouds, which I noted to be repetitive forms.
Snowy Landscape at Sunset. "School of Visual Arts"
This is the completion of a painting I copied as part of a course at the "School of Visual Arts". I added bright cadmium yellow to the sky to add brilliance, and i added yellow to the cadmium red to increase the orange tones of sunset. I also smoothed the snow into flat interweaving planes, simplifying the pattern, broken by occasion bushes. I added a few highlights to the diagonally placed stream and I added flake white and yellow with reds to the central snow, showing it as an area on which the last fading rays of light illuminated. I have shown the earlier version of the painting as well, to demonstarte the most recent adaptions.
The teacher is Lucy Gould Reutzfeld, and she is teaching us to create luminous light filled landscapes. Her website is below...
