Plein Eire

Your Site For Artists Who Paint Outdoors

This painting was chosen from over 600 total entries, 60 artists were selected for "Strokes of Genius" judged by Stephen Doherty,editor of Plein Air Magazine(hmm does this make me a genius now? ha ha) Painted from several plein air sketches and my memory of this very special place in Albuquerque, NM. The Sandia mountains are everchanging. On a cool Autumn evening the distant valley and intermittent golden cottonwood trees glowed. In fact, the whole scene glowed. I hope I caught some of the magic.

ha ha ha   Patrick you are full of blarney..............  genius indeed.  

I must say it was gratifiying to be part of the show and especially having such a prestigious judge  Generally I stay away from shows and competitions.  I don't like them at all and feel it takes away from the spirit of creativity.  Besides it is a bit like comparing apples and oranges.  Take care

Yes you certainly did catch some of the magic. Not surprising you were selected for being a Genius:-).

I like the way you have given a description of your working method and impressions of the place.

Thank you for your kind comment Maria.  I do love this painting mostly because I love New Mexico so much  There is a wealth of possibilities in the desert palette.  I go there every year
