Rosemarie Caffarelli Original Oil Painting on Canvas Autumn Grass Sauvie Island

Plein Air Painting of Oregon. It measures 12" by 12".

Painted Black Sides 1 1/2 inch wide Can be framed also. My work is done mostly in Plein Air, which means on site. In that way I become one with my subject.

As I progress into the piece, the weather plays a large part. Temperature, humidity, sun and location all contribute to my finished painting. After I set up my materials and easel I begin to sketch my subject. In that way I get a feel for the challenge ahead. I pick and choose what will be in the painting, allowing a specific scene to develop.

As my composition developed, I decide where my center of interest will be. Next I choose colors that I feel will compliment my work.

In choosing my colors I then decide weather the painting will be warm or cool. The season, subject and area dictate my range of color and value. I try to pick colors that will compliment the piece knowing I need lights, middle value and darks. At that time I may make minor changes or just stop.

With the forgiving nature of pastel and oil I can always go back into the painting. This item is in the category "Art\Paintings". The seller is "art_an_framedude" and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped worldwide.
