I’m on the road for the next couple of days so check back later for the next post here. I’m heading out to the Indianapolis area where I’m delivering a new group of work to Watts Fine Art, a gallery located in Zionsville, a suburb of Indy. I’m excited to visit this gallery and to meet the owners, Shannon and John Watts, face-to-face for the first time.
One of the paintings that will be heading to Indiana is this new piece, Enduring the Storm. An 18″ by 26″ painting on paper, it’s a piece that is really carried along by color and texture, both attributes having a heightened intensity here. The composition’s simple design allows the yellows to shine and the thick whorls of the gesso base contrast dramatically off the red crown of the tree as it flails in the wind. Simple and strong.
I will be back soon. Check back in a few days and have a great week.
