LARGE PAINTING, CALIFORNIA EUCALYPTUS TREES BY TOM BROWN



“ANCIENT SENTINELS”
12x16 inch oil painting
by Tom Brown

Thousands of these majestic eucalyptus trees were originally planted in Orange County, California between the late 1800s and 1940, creating towering green rows that were visible for miles.

They were arranged predominantly in a northwest-southeast direction, parallel to Santa Ana Mountains as windbreakers to protect the citrus groves from the winds that roared down from the mountains.

Currently they have no agricultural use since the citrus growing industry that gave name to Orange County has left the area, but there are still more than 18,000 of these ancient sentinels crisscrossing the land.

I painted this on location, working with thick juicy strokes of oil paint to capture the feeling of the moment in California’s history.

If you would like to own this piece of California history, email me directly: tombrownstudio@cox.net

LARGE PAINTING AND BIG SMALL WORKS SALE BY TOM BROWN




Today’s painting:
“THE MORNING DRIVE”
16x6 inch original plein air
oil painting by Tom Brown
This was painted on location while teaching a recent plein air workshop. The photo shows the camera’s version for comparison with my artistic interpretation. I wanted to capture my emotional reaction to the overall scene rather than simply recording endless details.

You will notice that I eliminated many elements such as light posts and signs that I felt did not contribute to the feeling I wanted to capture. And I used bold strokes of thick, juicy oil paint to depict the massive sweep of the freeway structure and roadway. I deliberately kept the colors muted, using very subtle grays mixed from my usual spectrum of pigments.

CHRISTMAS PAINTING, SMALL WORKS SALE BY TOM BROWN

Today’s painting:
“CHRISTMAS MEMORY”
10x8 inch original oil painting
by Tom Brown
SOLD

About today’s painting:
This is a childhood memory that I have shared before, and in the spirit of the Christmas Season I wanted to share it again.

When I was small, someone had placed a shiny red ornament on a pine tree in a local park; a Christmas surprise for little boys like me to discover.

My brothers and I had excitedly raced off to the park that morning when we discovered fresh snow. As we neared the top of our favorite sledding hill we spotted it. Hanging like a mystery in “the big tree” was a large red ornament, sparkling in the sun. (Did Santa do it?) We were awestruck!

This painting was done from the memory of that magical moment. My brothers and I never learned who had left this wonderful gift. But the wonder of it stays with me to this day.

Thank you, whoever you were.

This was painted earlier today during a Plein Air Workshop I conducted for other artists. It shows the entrance to a peaceful walking trail among the trees. I was interested in the color variations within the trees and the stonework at the entrance to the path. It was a beautiful morning to be outside with my paints.

“MORNING LIGHT”

Today’s painting was created en plein air (on location), at the edge of a busy street. The morning light was my inspiration, and I chose to use loads of thick juicy paint to describe the scene. I’m including a couple of detail photos to show the delicious texture of paint on the canvas, as well as a photo of the scene taken while I was painting.
