Anything painted directly, on the spot, always has a strength, a power, a lively touch that is lost in the studio. Your first impression is the right one. Stick to it and refuse to budge.
- Eugene Boudin
Nothing makes me so happy as to observe nature and to paint what I see.
- Henri Rousseau

State of the Art (Jeff Hayes - update)

Posted by Charley Parker at 7:01 pm

Jeff Hayes Jeff Hayes published a nice post about Lines and Colors today on his blog State of the Art. I wrote about his painting and art-comments blog back in November.

He’s still writing fascinating posts about all aspects of being a painter, including this one about constructing a shadow box for controlled dramatic lighting of still life subjects.
