Light is a key subject in the work of these three artists. Everly’s paintings are grounded in an intuitive response to observation. Light gives shape and texture to the structures in her landscapes.

It’s never simple to keep things simple- especially when you are talking about painting complex forms. Translating your ideas into paint and getting them down on canvas simply requires mastery of skills and materials. It also requires focus and good painting habits.

Filmed in my own studio, this offers a glimpse into my process as I work from life to paint two different floral arrangements.

In the midst of the pandemic we are all experiencing together, I notice that I am having a lot of negative thoughts about art making. Thoughts like, “What you’re doing is not important,” or “You’re not saving lives here, ” or perhaps the most negative of all- “No one cares about art at a time like this, so stop sharing.” Does any of this sound familiar? I hope most of you hold more positive thoughts, but if not, know that you are not alone.
So I’ve been waiting. Waiting for these thoughts to turn positive or to go away before … Read more ...
