"Country Village is a 16x20" original oil painting on black canvas.
I have been influenced lately by French Impressionist painter Camille Pissarro who was instrumental in helping to form the Impressionist movement. His paintings of small villages and the countryside, and also his strong use of light just draw me into his paintings. I can spend hours studying his work and that of other Impressionist artists. Consequently, I was inspired to paint my own small country village.
My style of painting is representational impressionism. I enjoy beginning with a recognizable subject and then embellish it as I would enjoy seeing it. Many times subjects do not need this embellishment but I may remove distracting objects, change colors, or add a stronger light source. I strive for feelings of peacefulness. When I paint a landscape or cityscape, I would like for people to imagine themselves in the painting, or to just sit back and enjoy it.
