Near Loughcrew, Ireland, by NY artist, Celeste Plowden
I learned the art of acrylic and pastel painting through private instruction, after having spent my career as a designer of printed fabrics in the New York market place. I am a graduate of the College of Design, Art and Architecture at the University of Cincinnati, with a major in the History of Art, 1977. Later, I studied printed textile design at Parsons School of Design, in New York. Immediately afterward, I began free lance work for several design studios in the garment district of NYC, where I did re-coloration work for printed apparel fabrics, and sold my own designs through Bread and Butter Designs,also located in New York. In addition, during the 1980's and 1990's, I designed a number of needlecraft and stencil books for Dover Publications. Currently, I am working on a series of exotic birds and other animals done in acrylic paint, with a palette knife, for texture and brilliant color. I consider my paintings to be representational or impressionistic in nature, and I use fantasy colors because what I see often makes me feel these colors,and what would make an interesting composition, rather than using realistic colors.

Mountain, Landscape, Oil Painting, "The Blue Ridge" 18x24"
The past few years, I have been painting my little daily paintings, but lately, I have felt the need to go larger, and deeper.
This is a view of Water Rock Knob, just off the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina, one of my favorite places in this world.
I painted the background and much of the foreground with a palette knife.
I tried to stay loose with my brushwork too.
Life is good in the mountains!

Landscape Daily Painting "Mountain Wildflowers", 6x8" SOLD
Happy Monday to you!
It's always nice to wake up to something cheerful, especially on a Monday, so I hope this little daily painting fills the bill for you.
Not my usual painting of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this one is from those grown up mountains in the northwest. You know those real mountains, those rugged mountains, those manly mountains!
It seems to me that everything is more rugged in the west whether we are talking mountains, oceans, bears, seagulls, trees etc. Everything seems tougher and bigger and maybe a little scarier!
We are a little more beaten down, or should I say, gentler on the east coast. One thing that does not change, is the beauty of our country, no matter where you are!
Make this a great week!

Haut-Alpes Poppy Fields by Marion Hedger
Meander through the Poppy fields
Oil palette knife painting
24x30cm on canvas panel (approx 11"x12"
Yesterday I went on my annual pilgrimage to see the lavender fields in the Haut-Alpes. Some of the lavender was not quite in full flower but other fields were more advanced. Everything seems to be late, the sunflowers were still small and no where near ready to flower.
I came across a beautiful poppy field which was lucky as the farmer was in the adjacent field mowing his hay.
I shall post a few photos of the lavender fields tomorrow.

Into the distance, Landscape painting by Marion Hedger
15x15cm (6"x6") oil on canvas panel
Palette knife on a pink ground
The
second of my mini trials. This time I used an underpainting using cool
colours for the dark tones and warm colours for the lights. Again
everything is suggested. Unfortunately, and I left a lot of the
underpainting showing.
Unfortunately, the photo shows the purple as quite light - I will have to try to get a photo with a truer colour.
Here are the two paintings side by side
Which one do you prefer?

Meandering Path, oil landscape painting by Marion Hedger
Meandering Path, Landscape painting
15x15cm (6"x6") oil on canvas panel
Palette knife on a pink ground
These small sized paintings are great for trying different things. They are large enough to give a good effect and small enough to quickly complete. I painted three of the same scene trying different techniques. This one is painted with a palette knife and painted onto a pink ground. I also wanted to work on my tree technique - trying not to be too detailed but with enough information. I also just wanted to suggest the foreground. I quite like the result where everything is just suggested, leaving much to the viewers imagination.
I will post the other two over the next couple of days.
