5x7 INCH OIL PAINTING ON MASONITE PANEL
On New Year's Morning I always enjoy getting out bright
and early to create a Plein Air painting on location. This is my first painting
of 2015, created on-site at a scenic location near my home in Southern
California.
I am also showing a photo here that was taken as I
painted this. I thought it might be interesting for other artists to see how I
used my artistic license when creating this painting.
You will notice that I left out the newly-planted
saplings along this walking path, as well as lamp posts. I felt these things
didn't contribute anything to the scene and so I chose to leave them out. What
an artist leaves OUT of a painting can be as important as what he or she
includes.
As I painted this I was greeted by a number of early-bird
walkers and joggers passing by. Often they would stay to watch awhile or make a
comment about the inspirational setting. I like it when passersby stop to chat,
and it always brightens my day.
This was a wonderful way to begin the New Year! Thanks
for stopping to look, and I wish you a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!
