Road to Marconi by Impressionist Carol Smith Myer

Painted with the California Art Club all last weekend at Marconi Center, it was a blast. This is my favorite of the six paintings I did. 11x14, oil on linen panel.

Fort Baker Andirondacks by impressionist Carol Smith Myer

The old army post where my mom worked is a fabulous destination to stay, hike, dine, or look out to the bay from the Andirondack chairs. 9x12, oil on linen panel. email

Sea and the Shore by Carol Smith Myer

This is technically the bay and Tiburon, but I was singing Robby Hecht's "Sea and the Shore" while I was painting, so that is how I will remember it. Great love song between the elements. 9x12, oil on linen panel.

Matanzas Creek Winery by Impressionist Carol Smith Myer

Our Friday plein air class went to the Lavender fields of Matanzas Creek Winery. Got a nice place in the shade looking over to the fields and the chairs and umbrella. 12x12", oil on linen panel.email

The morning started clear and still.  The water like a mirror, which was much of the reason I selected this scene.  45 minutes in and it started gusting up to 30 mph.  Ahhh…such is plein air painting.  You gotta love it!

Garapata California plein air oil landscape paintings

Garapata Strength   5" x 7" oil on canvas panel   $100.

I tried to take some photos of work in progress, but like usual I missed a few steps. For this painting I used a cotton canvas for the support, not my favorite. I used some of Gamblin's solvent free get to help move the paint when I first layed in the paint. It helped to spread over the rougher canvas weave.

The second painting was a small barn with a patch of wild mustard.

Wild Mustard  5"x7" oil on canvas panel   $100.

On to a new location tomorrow. I will be staying and painting with a friend in Redwood City, CA for a couple of days.

Talk to you all later.

Jimmy Longacre_subjective realist landscape paintings_SHADY RAVINE

Standing before this scene, I knew I was faced with trying to make sense out of what was a complex tangle of trunks, limbs, branches, twigs and leaves.  I was attracted by the strong diagonal and the rhythm of the trees.  My first step was to design this in a very small, two value 'notan' sketch.  That done, I arranged it into three values and emphasized the large tree trunk.  The actual coloration was very much all over green.  I imposed a color plan contrasting yellow green and magenta, with accent colors of cobalt blue and Alizarin. In all stages, it helps for me to remind myself: Dominance, Contrast, Repetition, Gradation.  A coherent value design arranged with a view to these for design principles will usually yield something fun to play with.

Jimmy Longacre_subjective realist landscape paintings_DESERT TWILIGHT

This was done from my sketch, by notes and a photo. A very difficult time of day to catch the sense of light. The sun is down and its light is refracted from the atmosphere onto the landscape below.

This is one of the times of day, like sunrise and sunset, that changes so quickly that only the most experienced and observant painter can hope to get a fairly faithful portrayal of light in a plein air painting.  No doubt that swiftly passing moment offers one of the most wonderfully gorgeous lightings on the landscape.  For me to attempt to capture it I blocked in my sketch composition and took it as far as I could in order to be ready once the sun went below the horizon.  Then, I tried to mix the color relationships and slap them in place as best I could.  Certainly not a painting that will make it to the gallery, but a worthwhile study. On another evening, I sat with my notebook and made observational notes about the effect I saw.  I also shot some photos that weren't particularly helpful except for recording where things were.  The camera's eye is not nearly as sensitive as the human eye, and you get very warped color results.  It all made for a fun time doing this version in the studio.

Jimmy Longacre_subjective realist landscape paintings_WORKSHOP_Putting Spontaneity and Improvisation Into Your Painting

I want to mention my upcoming, ONE-DAY PAINTING WORKSHOP in Corpus Christi on Saturday May 31st. We're going to focus on SPONTANEITY AND IMPROVISATION_Putting More Fun In Your Painting!

Nothing enhances spontaneity and improvisation like careful planning!  Contradictory as that may sound, having a clear idea of where you want a painting to go, and how you will get there is the key to you having more fun, and learning to paint better.  This workshop will cover essential information and skills necessary for your success in plein air and studio painting.  It is not intended to teach a painting “method”, but to provide the information you need to “play” and grow as a painter in a directed and meaningful manner.

•  You will learn the working principle and huge benefits of using NOTAN sketches to prepare your painting plan.  You will learn how NOTAN can pave the way to a more confident understanding key design and composition principles.

•  After presenting the basic subject matter, which includes the concept and logic of Notan and its relationship to composition, and color, I will demonstrate and answer questions.

•  There will, then, be time for you to paint and receive one-on-one instruction.

I work in oils, but the information is fundamental to all painting media and approaches.  Painting skill is mainly increased by painting.  We tend to do more of what is fun for us, and that is the objective of this workshop.  You having more fun!

The introductory workshop is intended for beginning to intermediate level painters, and is designed for working indoors, from photo reference, so that we can more effectively focus on the concepts and skills. Those interested in making progress in plein air painting skills will find the information we cover to be invaluable.
