Blue Sky
I enthusiastically embraced the exhilarating boldness of Fauvism intertwined with the gentle touch of Impressionism, employing oils to capture a vivid, pastoral scene. The use of striking, vibrant colors highlights not just the visual splendor of nature but also evokes a sense of robust vitality and emotional intensity. This artwork is meant to energize a room, inspiring both feelings and the gentle tranquility of a serene yet spirited landscape.
Plein Air Painting Experience: I created this painting on location using oils and oil pastels on 300-lb paper. It overlooks Chain O'Lakes State Park, which is located at the Illinois and Wisconsin Stateline. This is one of my favorite parks to paint in, and I have easily painted 50+ paintings in this park over the years.
Dimensions: 30 in. Diameter x 1 in.
Medium: Oil and Oil Pastels on Paper
Year: 2024
Backing: The painting backing is a hand-built foam-core support structure to secure the painting so it can hang safely on the wall. The paper painting has 3M glue tabs securing the painting to a sheet of foam core cut slightly smaller than the paper so the ruffled edges are exposed. There is a second support ring of the foam core, which this sheet is attached to. A wire is strung across the support ring.
Painting Delivery: Delivery, shipping, and handling fees are included in the price. The art will be shipped UPS premium/fragile and insured. The artist will deliver the painting to your home if purchased locally (within a 50-mile radius of Chicago 60601).
