My paint box was set up in 60 seconds when I saw these cloud halos. I knew there was no time to spare.
Clouds move quickly and having a paint box that sets up instantly makes it easier to focus on the task at hand.
The second critical thing is being able to handle colors quickly and accurately.
Colors are your vocabulary in the language of painting. If you want to be truly “fluent” in expressing yourself with your paints, you need to mix accurate colors without hesitation.
Then it all comes together like magic, and the picture seems to paint itself.
“THE SILVER LINING” is a 6x6 inch oil painting, very reasonably priced at the moment. Email for details if you would like to brighten your walls with this one. tombrownstudio@cox.net
I am an American artist and I host a TV Art Instruction show where I teach studio oil painting and plein air painting in the Impressionist style.
I also teach other artists how to paint through oil painting workshops and art instruction CDs and DVDs.
My Impressionist plein air landscapes, still life compositions, portraits and figure paintings have been represented through prominent galleries for more than 20 years.
My paintings are in corporate collections including the City of Irvine, Sears, Standard Oil, and Coca Cola. My work is often seen in leading art publications like Southwest Art, Art & Antiques, American Art Review, American Art Collector, Art Calendar and others.
I am a former president of the Orange Art Association and past member of the Laguna Plein Air Painters Association and Southern California Plein Air Painters Association.
On my Daily Painter blog I offer affordable small original oil paintings to introduce my work to new and ongoing collectors. Much of my work these days is done on a private commission basis, and I welcome inquiries.
Thanks for looking.
