I’m a
plein-air painter, painting with the color palette of an impressionist. When
I work I imagine that I am painting the color of the light in the scene, not
the actual objects themselves. I apply the pastels to prepared sanded paper
which I mount on board. With the paper mounted I have great flexibility
holding and moving it around as I work on the painting. I never use and
easel to paint. I use color as an impressionist, like Claude Monet or
Vincent Van Gogh, juxtaposing brilliant complimentary colors and allowing
the eye to blend them into the color of light. I take every opportunity to
be outside painting. in the beautiful countryside of the Delaware River
Valley.
