Wow! I know this paintings are surprisingly simple but the rich use of color and restraint of depth is pretty stunning. These paintings make me want to just run away and go on vacation and then sit on a beach with a large fruffy cocktail with an umbrella. Care to join? Robert Roth is a Ohio based painter that has a lot of fancy credentials and his work is in the private collections of AMEX, The New Yorker, and Columbia University....
I can not believe that it's almost, June. It seems like winter and spring just simply flew by. I am stuck on these urbanscapes and I can't stop painting them! I am on a 45 day count down, until we leave for Paris. Woohoo! I have been attempting to practice my horrible French and I am probably going to embarrass myself. Tim said we could buy a little bit of art while we are in France :). He loves mixed media work, and I am a sucker for classic painting. Happy Memorial Day weekend, everyone :)...
I had my wisdom teeth pulled this week and it was my first time to have to been knocked out. On my way being taken out to the car after surgery, I did give each nurse a big hug and thank them for taking care of me. :) I was pretty looped up. I am recovering pretty well and I have been back in the studio 2 days after surgery. Here is a little painting of before crossing the bridge back to Astoria, Oregon. Happy Weekend Everyone :)...
I just finished up this painting of the ever beautiful Sauvie's Island during fall. Fall is always so beautiful there because of the changing trees and the quietness of the countryside. It was a perfect October day but very cold. 2009 has moved by so fast and I can't believe we are already approaching the new year and I have lots of things in the works and lots of painting. I do have a first Thursday opening at Equilibrium next week from 6-8. Happy Holidays Everyone!...
More paintings for the big 100 . Since I am totally addicted to coffee and since I pretty much only wear converse. ...
Dere is a commission piece that I just recently completed. Its this little town nestled in the mountains in Italy called Callesano. The most challenging part was making sure I was able to capture the essence of this small town. I wanted to keep a really limited color pallette due to rustic and quiet nature of the town. I used cad red, cad yellow, naples yellow, ultramarine blue, burnt sienna, and burnt umber. Also coming up for first Thursday in December, my solo show at Equilibrium in December, which I will have several new pieces. Another December announcement is that I am in the big 100 which I will have 20 pieces. There is 100 artists which means 2000 pieces of art and it is a cash and carry show which is right on time for the holidays. ...
