Blonde Gypsy - oil on linen - 30 x 40 inches
Throughout the year I will be adding more paintings and drawings to my new website. Here on the blog I will continue to share my interest in a painting style historically influenced by artists in the Atelier education system in Paris in the mid-late 1800s. They in turn where influenced by technical achievements of 17th Century Spanish painting where bold, gestural application of paint was born. In the Ateliers in Paris, artists blended this influence with the rigid traditions of Academic Realism to create a new form of Expressive Realism that was broad, painterly and dramatic.
These artists created the bridge from Academic Realism to Impressionism which came later. I like the view from this bridge and I hope you will join me on my painting journey.
