- Thanks for visiting my blog featuring my most recent oil paintings. I have an art degree from Southern Methodist University and spent about 10 years marketing my paintings through museum art shows, decorators and representation at the Dallas Decorative Center. I put the paints aside for a few years to pursue other business and design interests, but most recently have returned to oil painting. If purchase information is not listed, email me personally if you are interested. Thanks for visiting my blog.

ReplyDeleteI don't know Jim but I think this cowboy looks like William Shatner! LOL Well painted, my friend.
ReplyDeleteFantastic - LOVE this series, Ann
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, I'm really enjoying watching the evolution of your cowboy theme, especially the close-ups of these rugged guys. I love the warm light and the shadow cast by their hats. You've really captured personalities and a depth of a life experience and burdens I can't even imagine. The paintings of cattle show a freedom in your strokes like you weren't trying to depict reality but movement and light. They succeed. I don't know why we struggle with freedom in our painting—I do think we were not only taught to color within the lines but to never cross a line. As satisfying as it is to make a bold stroke, a few seconds later, I want to make it "nice" and "behave." :) But that's not all of it. I'm so driven to break out that I haven't sincerely put in the time to learn the craft of it, like I can make some miraculous leap without the discipline. I applaud you in your search as we both plod along . . . good work!!!
