"Beauty in art is the delicious notes of color one against the other. It is just as fine as music and it is just the same thing, one tone in relation to another tone. Real sentiment in art comes as it does in music from the way one tone comes against another independently of the literary quality of the subject - the way spots of color come together produces painting. . . . . . There are just so many tones in music and just so many colors but it's the beautiful combination that makes a masterpiece." - Hawthorne
I’m dreaming of homesteading again…we’ve cast our net wide and dreaming BIG! I’m thinking of a peony flower farm since peonies are my favorite flower. Until then, I will continue to paint them. And what better name than to call it Saint Francis Farms :-)
Me and Monet ❤️ I painted this portrait of Monet about 15-years ago. I wanted to paint just like him. I’m no Monet but I hope that he has left an impression in each one of my paintings.
