After the Rain #2 by NY artist Celeste Plowden
16x20 acrylic on canvas, a new painting that will han gin my upcoming show at the Spectrum Theater, Albany , NY Mar 17-Apr 26, 2016
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.

Golden Marsh palette knife painting in oils by Marion Hedger
Golden Marsh by Marion Hedger
Oils using palette knives
18x24cm (approx 7"x10") on Canvas panel
AVAILABLE IN MY ETSY SHOP
A
study following Lois Griffel's method of painting. I have previously
used Susan Sarback's process with pastels of blocking in with warm colours for light and cool colours for the darks, then layering the paint in 4 steps. This is the first palette
knife oil painting using Lois's method which is a very similar process
and way of thinking. I took her example photo and flipped it and changed
some of the marsh detail. I like the sense of distance achieved and the
light shining through. I shall try a few more of these but larger I
think as working small is quite difficult.
