plein air painter - Get Creative for 2013 !

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” -Mark Twain

plein air painter - September Feature Artist - Kathryn Townsend

Artist Statement 

 

I paint landscape, figure, portrait and still life, both in the studio and outdoor on location. My intent is the exploration of the visual/painting language in whatever way and with whatever subject matter moves and challenges me in the moment. I find the best relationship to painting is to consider everything that I do as an experiment and exploration in learning—to paint, to understand visual concepts, and to see and appreciate what exists in the world around me as well as my own vision.                                                      Kathryn Townsend

Phil paints strong, colourful panels of Canadiana with a passion for visually expressing the effects of weather on water, land and light.

plein air painter Louise Sackett
More of Louise's work HERE

To see the mundane, and see it with a new eye, is to recognize the creative force of a higher power.  My art is a recognition of that higher power and a synthesis of all that passes through my mind, eye, hand and heart. It is an ever changing personal journey.
 Hopefully, while seeing one of my works, the viewer discovers that passage and relationship. It is the act of the work itself that is the journey, the reality for me. Something I recently read said that artists do not own their works. What they own is the process, the act of the creation of art. For a plein air artist, what they sometimes own is a haste to depart a scene due to environmental pressures in the forms of uninvited pests, a suddenly dangerous locale, changing, fleeting light or a blowing sudden rainstorm.
To paint plein air is to exult in being the most obstinate type of artist. My mom would have said I am well qualified. My art is a personal interpretation of my own experience; the people around me and the world in which I live and the glory I see in all creation, despite the obstacles, challenges and blocks. It’s not like the air I need to survive, it’s much more than that.
