464 Amherst Street is the home of 464 Gallery. Most exhibits there are a week long and feature individual artists. This month, a large number of artists and artworks are displayed, salon style, with three or four in a column, covering all the walls in the front and more are in the back room.
These three paintings are displayed there, perfect for the fall loving local art lover. The top was painted at Bond's Lake, right at the beginning of Fall and I used a palette knife as my hand was in a brace. I have used the knives more often lately as it is easier on my grip and a bit of a challenge, as well.
The next two were painted last Fall. 'Three trees' is also plein air, in the lovely Fireman's Park right across the Whirlpool Bridge in NF, Canada.
I am showing the barns here with and without a frame. Sometimes it is amazing to see the difference a frame makes, this little painting becomes a jewel with a carved and decorative gilt edge.

As an upstate New York ex-pat, it is great to see some memories of Fall. There is very little fall color in central Texas.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness Fall is so long here, the colors emerge slowly, some trees keep their leaves until Spring. I was in southern Texas for a Fall. One day the leaves fell off, the next day was Spring.
