Winter Paintings 4 - 6
These three paintings were not completed on location, but resulted directly from on location observations. In each case, I went home after visiting a location and completed these drawings and paintings from memory.
Fort Williams and Moonlight, Ice, Androscoggin were competed very rapidly in one setting. I didn't have my paints with me at the time, but I wanted to capture my enthusiasm and the excitement of the moments as soon as possible. The bulk of the larger oil was completed in one sitting as well.
I enjoy working through the design process as well, but when producing a finished painting, I like to keep things as spontaneous as possible. Painting on location helps me to "keep things fresh."
