Guest Artist--Gary Vincent, "Breeze"


48"x60"
Acrylic on Canvas
Sold

I will be focusing on illustration work for the next three weeks so won't be able to do as many little paintings as I would like. So instead, I will be posting wonderful pieces by other artists from here in Bend, along with what I might have time for.

This painting is one of Gary's favorites. He derives inspiration for alot of his work from aspens. They are particularly stunning in the autumn as they turn beautiful yellow and orange tones that have an electric blue sky as background. This painting makes me think of how the leaves are almost like glitter as they catch the sunlight while being ruffled by the breezes.
