I did this painting not long after I discovered Alizaron Yellow by Williamsburg Paints.  I love that color!  When mixed with white, it gets a warm, buttery look similar to cadmium yellow, but otherwise it is transparent and just glows.  On its own and mixed with other colors, it has a bit of an "acid-y" look.

"Simpatico"


16"x12" unframed, 22"x18" framed
Oil on Board
contact River Bend Fine Art Gallery for purchase information

I did a little 8x6 of this subject a couple of years ago and have wanted to go larger with it ever since. I love the solid feel of the two of them together, taking care of each other. The scene is at a rodeo. Maybe you'll recognize the cowgirl in the boots, hat and dress from another painting.

Yes, I'm on a cowboy and rodeo kick these days! I love drawing and painting subjects that feel full of energy. On this one, I particularly had fun with the palette knife as it accentuated the movement and the explosion of energy as the horse tries to get rid of that rider.

While working at the gallery today, I managed to sneak in this drawing. As I was doing it, the song, "Shake It Up" kept going through my mind, so that's the title!

Good to be back! It's been a great two weeks of meeting a new grandchild, visiting and playing with the others and finishing up work for the Ranch Life and Rodeo show in which this block print will be included. It's been refreshing to do some traveling and get some inspiration!
