My working process is a simple one; I start on location, sketching, photographing and painting. Some of these field studies make their way to the studio. In the studio I use all of that visual information and combine it with the sense or feeling I had for a location and create what is inevitably an abstraction of sorts in that it is not merely a copy of a photo but an interpretation of place. I hope that you enjoy the work!
In this video, I break down what I think works in Carlson's piece, "Forest Silence". If we can recognize what is working in artwork that we love, maybe we can apply some of those same principles or attributes in our own paintings.
