I have been painting landscapes in Acrylic and am trying to get the majestic feeling of the light and the use new and bold colors. The palette is very provocative and I am sure will strike some viewers as garish but so be it. I think I am just starting to understand the old adage that an artists job is to be creative, unique, and interpretive and I feel pretty strongly that this work has all three of those qualities. It is my goal to make this fairly expressive and impressionist work a major direction for the new year. I believe that changing and following new paths is the secret of growing as an artist and I really have never been content staying in one place for too long.
Good art is the result of hard work and dedication. It happens only when the artist finds his or her own story to tell — and then learns to do so with his or her own unique language.
