I have known several personalities through the years and cows are some of the most interesting.</p><p>36x48" oil on canvas $2000</p><p><br /></p><p>Cows in the Stream</p><p>I was driving home from Yoder Furniture, in Hillpoint, with a van full of frames. These cows were bathing in a picturesque stream on the side of HWY S. I had to stop and take note of them as they looked to be posing for me.</p><p>9x12" oil on panel $300</p><p><br /></p><p>Little Cows</p><p>I needed a change of scenery, so Violet, Corbin, and I loaded in the car and took a drive. We headed to Spring Green, and went through Tower Rock on the way back home. These cows didn't stand still for long, but I was able to capture them before they grazed down the pasture.</p><p>9x12" oil on panel $400</p><p><br /></p><p>West Bluff Trail - Haloween Forest </p><p>On a semi-overcast day, I painted a beautiful scene of the late Autumn Oak trees near the West Bluff trail at Devil's Lake. The painting was made on Halloween, and as I progressed with the artwork, the haze in the sky also progressed. However, I was able to capture the glowing leaves of the trees in a sweet spot between the sun and clouds. </p><p>24x36" $1400</p><p><br /></p><p>Early Autumn on Schneider Road</p><p>I was strolling my daughter down Schneider Road, and noticed that the late afternoon sunlight was creating a atmospheric effect. the early Autumn foliage was just starting to turn, which added to my interest in painting it. I took Violet home, traded the stroller for my easel, and walked back down to paint.</p><p>8x10" oil on panel $150</p><p><br /></p><p>Early Autumn Farm and Vista</p><p>The soybean fields turned yellow in mid-September, and I saw that there was an exceptionally lovely field of them just beyond this farm on HWY 136. I set up my easel and painted quickly and expressively to capture the shadowed foreground to heighten the effect of light on the soybean field.</p><p>16x24" $500</p><p><br /></p><p>Tumbled Rocks Trail</p><p>I left home early, to get to Devil's Lake before the morning haze burnt off. I decided on a view from the Tumbled Rock's trail and was rewarded with an interesing grouping of rocks and boulders. One woman asked why I was painting at that time, while there was so much haze obscuring the bluffs on the other side of the Lake? I let her know that that quality of light and atmosphere was exactly what I was hoping to capture in my painting.</p><p>14x18" oil on panel $750</p><p>Autumn Trees</p><p>This grouping of trees were some of the first to change color in mid-September. I was so inspired by them that I painted them in a light drizzle. As I worked, I was surprised how many people stopped to say that they admired this forest, and how they were exited for Autumn to come.</p><p>12x9" oil on panel $190</p><p>Autumn Trees and Bluff</p><p>We had a week of rain and clouds in late September. Those conditions normally stop my from painting outdoors, but they do not stop me from taking my morning walks. On this morning, I thought that these trees and the bluff behind them looked so nice that I would paint them, even though there was a light rain. The umbrella went up over my easel and I captured the mood of the day.</p><p>9x12" oil on panel $190</p><p><br /></p><p>South Trail at Devil's Lake</p><p>There is a deer trail, that is unmarked at Devil's lake, that will take you to this overlook. This is a different view of the Lake than any that I have experienced before. </p><p>18x24" pastel on colourfix $700</p><p><br /></p><p>September Sunflowers</p><p>We had beautiful perennial flowers here on the farm all summer, but I was ready when this field of sunflowers bloomed on HWY 23. They are near the Raup farm stand and I enjoyed capturing the personality of each bobbing sunflower on a sunny morning.</p><p>18x24" pastel on colourfix $700</p><p><br /></p><p>Sunflower Field and Barn</p><p>This is an interesting barn that I captured on a trip up north with my cousins in September. We always take a trip to a new lake house on Memorial Day weekend, and this field of sunflowers had me turning the car around for a double take.</p><p>18x24" pastel on colourfix $700</p><p><br /></p><p>Mirror Image</p><p>I don't know if this cow realized that he posed perfectly as he drank from the stream, but he did. And I was lucky to capture him when I had the chance, because these cows were extremely curious, and muddy as they crossed the stream to greet me and see what I was doing.</p><p>18x24" pastel on colourfix $700</p><p><br /></p><p>Sunset Cows</p><p>I have to be patient with cows. The largest cow in this composition was a part of the heard until she decided to come closer to take a look at what I was doing. As she moved closer, the light created a halo effect around her, and I was happy that I waited for the perfect moment to capture her.</p><p>18x24" pastel on colourfix $700</p><p><br /></p><p>Curious Cows at the fence</p><p>Any time I pull the car over, to shoot photos of cows, they come up to the fence, to see what I am doing. I made a note fo the atmospheric quality of light on this evening and enjoyed painting the warm tones of the cow who was peaking over the back of her friend.</p><p>18x24" pastel on colourfix $700</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Kyle Martinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540885369847741277noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431458999258780548.post-63612768169836446392023-09-27T17:36:00.015-05:002023-10-12T17:03:07.253-05:00Save the Date for the Fall Art Tour - Paintings from August 2023<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Lato;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The 30th Annual Fall Art Tour is just around the corner, and we are excited to announce that it will be held on October 20, 21, and 22. As the longest-running studio tour in Wisconsin, the Fall Art Tour has become a popular event due to its longevity and the quality of artists. This year, we have 48 unique artists' studios open to the public. When you visit the tour you get to see the places where the artists create their work, and the artists also demonstrate their techniques throughout the day. The tour is free and it is a great opportunity for people of all ages to learn more about their favorite artists. I usually have a couple of school buses full of students pull up on Friday, and all weekend the Chicken Coop Studio is full of great conversations. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">As a committee member involved in planning the tour, I can attest to the effort that goes into jurying artists. The process starts every year in November, and we carefully select new artists to fill any open spots. After the jurying process, the new artists submit images of their artwork to be included on our website fallarttour.com as well as our print brochure.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Please save the dates and mark your calendar for October 20-22 and make sure to visit my Chicken Coop Studio at </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">S3749 Schneider Rd. in Rock Springs, WI 53961. </div></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Lato;">I hope to see you on the tour!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Lato;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Lato;">fallarttour.com</span></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8qVeiLXpJh-AXEZnPWl_H-0LXeIRtJZ64fYJXSm0cuRNOBQBTUYY55uq_SvUlHH5Uqxw_qSvp1dvq4PR5DLna-35NyjwGlJU9SzH8n6GcRXGuL4DXfQdXvSas6jK589Zn9VgZxCwEF4N2FnAABZA56FIQm71UJJCro7h3uLlVp-deM-DZIFmx9WijG9U/s2641/Farmall%20with%20Sunflowers%2014x18.jpeg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2077" data-original-width="2641" height="252" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8qVeiLXpJh-AXEZnPWl_H-0LXeIRtJZ64fYJXSm0cuRNOBQBTUYY55uq_SvUlHH5Uqxw_qSvp1dvq4PR5DLna-35NyjwGlJU9SzH8n6GcRXGuL4DXfQdXvSas6jK589Zn9VgZxCwEF4N2FnAABZA56FIQm71UJJCro7h3uLlVp-deM-DZIFmx9WijG9U/s320/Farmall%20with%20Sunflowers%2014x18.jpeg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Lato;">Sunflowers and Farmall</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Lato;">My mom gave me a call and let me know that she found a field of sunflowers that would make for a great painting.

They even moved the red Farmall tractor near the sunflowers so that I could include it in the painting as well.

The phlox had just started to bloom which added a pop of violet color to the canvas.</div><div style="text-align: left;">9x12" oil on canvas $250</div></span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqeQyESIRgBS5GIKhqw1MuhLBO88ObE4tvOs3ObhYANr-jCqqJ7-ocBSSdWuwe3C6IhM4xdOcP0SxUJ_Nq4zIgT-tdiWO-1lae90WxRQGw1GXS4jFE8qRjCMAmatCj7pZro5mv4ec0_vtULknlt6O5SYvkvdU1S4tcjgqKcZJMoCEXB_rR5TkOPdAKSNY/s2857/July%206th%20bales%2012x16.jpeg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2159" data-original-width="2857" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqeQyESIRgBS5GIKhqw1MuhLBO88ObE4tvOs3ObhYANr-jCqqJ7-ocBSSdWuwe3C6IhM4xdOcP0SxUJ_Nq4zIgT-tdiWO-1lae90WxRQGw1GXS4jFE8qRjCMAmatCj7pZro5mv4ec0_vtULknlt6O5SYvkvdU1S4tcjgqKcZJMoCEXB_rR5TkOPdAKSNY/s320/July%206th%20bales%2012x16.jpeg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">July 6th Haybales<br />After my Sister's birthday party, I walked across the hayfield and found this atmospheric summer scene.

The midsummer month of July always passes by like a sun-soaked dream when I look back on it. Its a month of hazy sunlight when the corn tassels and the chicory lines the roads. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I got some good painting done in July 2023. I mostly worked close to home as our daughter is little and I want to spend as much time being close to her as I can. The still life paintings that are shown here were painted in my Grandmas flower garden. Grandma has been gone for a while now, but every year I get to see her perennial flowers and paint them. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We took a trip to Chicago this month, and saw the van Gogh show at the art institute. It was a great memory for all of us. Violet cried when we were in the gallery, and we were asked by a guard to take her outside. A couple approached us while I was changing her on a bench in the museum, who had the same thing happen to them while they were at the Louvre. Their son cried when he saw the Mona Lisa, and they were asked to leave as well. He is 21 now. The time goes quickly, and we are trying our best to recognize the small moments while they last.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Finally, I painted a barn as it was being taken down this month as well. It was a great barn, one that I first painted 8 years ago. It had a special shed built onto the side of the barn, so that the horses would have room to stand when they pulled the haywagons into the barn. I will make a youtube video about this painting session soon, and post it here on the blog.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I hope you had a good July.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thank you for reading,</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Kyle Martin.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPVar5a40_6eszqZ-lFgJdII20NOf1-MEmKQnY-h3thUDVuVSXDoIxYPY-0TvijDXIXUnMVzB9pvz3L7plzDW4N3r6EK0DWS05v2hQFZYWRF7yQP_IpVKOdLOj1MOy6tN2nWMYEZciJWtrgxsqPb9jMwM-pCjv6MWjuBUv_LtiJDDQ6lKTBfONUT0H41E/s4800/kickbaler.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3600" data-original-width="4800" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPVar5a40_6eszqZ-lFgJdII20NOf1-MEmKQnY-h3thUDVuVSXDoIxYPY-0TvijDXIXUnMVzB9pvz3L7plzDW4N3r6EK0DWS05v2hQFZYWRF7yQP_IpVKOdLOj1MOy6tN2nWMYEZciJWtrgxsqPb9jMwM-pCjv6MWjuBUv_LtiJDDQ6lKTBfONUT0H41E/s320/kickbaler.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><h4 style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="background-color: white; font-family: Lato; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">Kick-Baler</span></div><span style="background-color: white;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="font-family: Lato; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">We never used kick-balers to make hay when I was young, but I always enjoyed seeing them at work. When we made hay, one person would drive the tractor, scooping up the cut and raked hay into the baler, and then one person would stand on the wagon and stack the small bales. With a kick-baler, you need a wagon that is like a cage that catches the bales after they are thrown high into the air. A dusty trail always follows the bales through their flight path. </span></div><span style="font-family: Lato;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">My Dad never wanted to have a kick baler, because he thought you couldn't get as many bales onto a load, and also some of the bales are broken when you get back to unload them.

The hollyhocks are across the street from By the Bay Motel, near the beach. I stayed at By the Bay during my first painting trip to Door County in 2011. On that trip, I met the staff of the Peninsula School of Art, and participated in a painting event called the Dockside Quickpaint.

We may have waited until she was a bit older, but there was a special van Gogh show that is only on view for the summer, we could not miss that. There were many paintings by van Gogh, Signac, Seurat, and Cross in the show, which focused on paintings that these friends made in the suburbs of Paris.

If you look through the retired dairy barn, you can see a working dairy farm in the background that is still in use. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="background-color: white; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">30x40" oil on canvas $1200</span></div><span style="background-color: white;"><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div></span></span></h4></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOk7uPT9mpDV-ZPi5yna67R8XiCxwFUn4l5IUUXYPruz8EuCz8xO3zNCxy9bMN-ISro4deTaj1A8pVZ_uAyO8ni7qIJV2HRmFqQQtX4ottw4AapoKoBEShqiPrkNJWUhLExncMgpZlfJy2Ll5eWYjCiUz4NN6g43JN6QPi2ILHTKt4DVomc1xsZ1aNATA/s3601/Vernon%20County%20Vista%2036x48.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2700" data-original-width="3601" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOk7uPT9mpDV-ZPi5yna67R8XiCxwFUn4l5IUUXYPruz8EuCz8xO3zNCxy9bMN-ISro4deTaj1A8pVZ_uAyO8ni7qIJV2HRmFqQQtX4ottw4AapoKoBEShqiPrkNJWUhLExncMgpZlfJy2Ll5eWYjCiUz4NN6g43JN6QPi2ILHTKt4DVomc1xsZ1aNATA/s320/Vernon%20County%20Vista%2036x48.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><h4 style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="background-color: white; font-family: Lato; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">Vernon County View</span></div><span style="font-family: Lato;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="background-color: white; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">I found this valley, which is outside of Hillsboro, five years ago. I have returned every summer to paint, and have gotten to know several people who live there. I made friends with a young man named Ira in the valley, and like me, he lives on the family farm. Ira let me go up into his hayfield, which is high above the road and gives a bird's eye view of the farm and valley. I set up my large format easel and created this painting over a series of three mornings, starting at 7:30 each day. I had a consistent amount of haze and atmosphere for each painting session and was happy to capture the morning light falling over the valley.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="background-color: white; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">36"x48" oil on canvas $1400</span></div></span></h4><div class="product-description" itemprop="description" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; line-height: 1.35; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 1.25rem 0px 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><p></p></div></td></tr></tbody></table> <p></p>Kyle Martinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540885369847741277noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431458999258780548.post-30674301615019986152023-07-05T15:56:00.012-05:002023-10-12T17:04:37.336-05:00Our Daughter is Born<p><span style="font-family: Lato;"> Hello,</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Lato;">We welcomed our Daughter into the world on June first, and Corbin and I named her after our favorite spring flower, Violet. As I write these words, we just walked back into the house from a walk down the path that I mow along the river. She is snuggled close to me, as she is still in her front carrier, sleeping on my chest. I couldn't bear to wake her after we got home from our afternoon walk.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Lato;">Violet is a healthy girl, and she has brought so much joy to Corbin and I, and our entire family. She is very alert and with it when she is awake, and often smiles when she hears her parent's voices, and tracks us with her eyes as we move around. My favorite time of the day is putting her in the stroller and walking her up and down the road for 3-4 miles every morning. This time is so special as we look forward to seeing the neighbor's dog, Rider, running towards us as soon as we get down the driveway. On our walks, we often visit with our neighbors, Rich, Paula, Nancy, Peter, The Harm's, and the Crary's. We also see sheep, cows, chickens, and plenty of birds on our walks.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Lato;">At the end of our early morning walks, I normally set up and paint. These are some new paintings that I have made since Violet has come. They are joyful summer scenes that echo my own happiness.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Lato;">Thank you for allowing me to share my work and my words with you,</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Lato;">Kyle Martin</span></p><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmu8hXXX5A6Cjr7biA4GK-IVL--KDKguaJfVGZ4juYrVbnRLpbaG_Nok8kk6XYvt47fItKySgMvnUYaFhGm7lxoEhkdI2xSUeYjmaQJWvHjx6jzFHrAVwAiej-v5XlFQe9ckVtoL3kL2v4AQ0soLkFf5-BevoxMC_q4meVbX3LaYRrnBaeFxtlydBLeDk/s4800/Summer%20Still%20Life%20with%20Geraniums%20and%20Enamel%20Pitcher%2024x20.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4800" data-original-width="3990" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmu8hXXX5A6Cjr7biA4GK-IVL--KDKguaJfVGZ4juYrVbnRLpbaG_Nok8kk6XYvt47fItKySgMvnUYaFhGm7lxoEhkdI2xSUeYjmaQJWvHjx6jzFHrAVwAiej-v5XlFQe9ckVtoL3kL2v4AQ0soLkFf5-BevoxMC_q4meVbX3LaYRrnBaeFxtlydBLeDk/s320/Summer%20Still%20Life%20with%20Geraniums%20and%20Enamel%20Pitcher%2024x20.jpeg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background: 0px 50%; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="font-family: Lato; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">Still Life with Geraniums and Enamel Pitcher </span></div><span style="font-family: Lato;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span color="inherit" style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">My Mother turned 70 in June, and she had a party that was filled with family and friends to celebrate.

Once, I was standing in his field, when an aerial photograph of his farm was taken, and you can see me set up in the field with my easel in the photo.<br /></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Lato;">12x16" oil on canvas $400</span></div><div class="product-description" itemprop="description" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; line-height: 1.35; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 1.25rem 0px 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Lato;"><br /></span></p></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzMqNwjg_QP0XuudfG2HIrjo_cBOOBV2GjE-XdTAvlMAyMgJ2QLdCFWnkBD-xjx0Myi7i1au76dZsDgifk8nVucDPzC7LYfCQiDt4XTJZJN5XfMNWOSldocHSQMrASP2vh_y3TZxKXp1qxg_y2Sc7Q3BynEoELoCLcjLaYlyjke9AGD5NY7a6nhsyspcc/s4846/Terrytown%20Bales%2012x16.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3600" data-original-width="4846" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzMqNwjg_QP0XuudfG2HIrjo_cBOOBV2GjE-XdTAvlMAyMgJ2QLdCFWnkBD-xjx0Myi7i1au76dZsDgifk8nVucDPzC7LYfCQiDt4XTJZJN5XfMNWOSldocHSQMrASP2vh_y3TZxKXp1qxg_y2Sc7Q3BynEoELoCLcjLaYlyjke9AGD5NY7a6nhsyspcc/s320/Terrytown%20Bales%2012x16.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 50%; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; min-height: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Lato; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">Terrytown Bales - Late Afternoon</span></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Lato;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">When they make the haybales, they usually take them away on the same day.

text-align: center;">As I opened the door this morning, a springtime feeling came over me. It is the first day where the temperature felt warm, and there were dark stormclouds overhead which will bring showers throughout the day. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Natured is waking up, and I am here for it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We get all 4 seasons here in Wisconsin, and I enjoy painting them all. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">However, only Springtime brings that fresh emotion and feeling of renewal.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">During the winter, I changed my painting hours and tactics. I was at the easel most days from 9am-Noon, working mainly in the studio at a pace that I told myself was a slow burn. It was more important to me, this time around, to work at a turtles pace and to stay consitant with my hours.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Now that it is springtime, I will leave the winter studio behind and nature will dictate my painting schedule.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am looking forward to this.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">These paintings are some from last winter, 2020-2021 that were on the desktop of my computer here at school. I'll have to photograph my winter paintings and get them posted here. Most of these are spoken for, but the images are good to see a year later.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thanks for checking in,</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The 2021 tour is taking place on October 15, 16 and 17 from 10am - 6pm daily.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">This week I am framing paintings and hanging them on the walls of the Chicken Coop Studio. It is nice to be framing and hanging paintings in the cozy studio with a fire burning in the stove. In addition to the paintings, I have a couple of new surprises that I will announce later in the week through this newsletter!</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I always hear that our tour guests love seeing our spaces - and it's true - the tour artists have re-purposed and inhabited some very interesting buildings. I am in an old chicken coop, Carol Naughton creates in a remodeled stone granary and Diana and Tom Johnston are in a historic limestone brewery. Everyone's studio is uniquely designed around their art practice and this is your chance to get a behind the scenes look at our spaces and to see how we create in them.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">This year, I will have 140 framed paintings on display. If you are interested in any of the paintings shown, please drop me a message.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Please plan to join me, and the 45 other artists on the Fall Art Tour.

In this class, I will present everything that I know working with color!</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Color is the element of art that I am most interested in, and I am happy to share what I have learned with you in this three day workshop! The class curriculum is designed to take the mystery out of observing and mixing the colors that you see in the landscape. You will learn how different lighting situations effect the mood of nature in this class.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">On Friday we will be working in the studio. We will start with a discussion of the tube colors that we will use, and different palette arrangements such as a limited-palette vs a split-complimentary palette vs a spectral-palette. These different palettes can all achieve different results and we will discuss each.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">I will present the concept of color space and we will then have a mini project that will get you observing and mixing colors right away. You will get a lot of practice with mixing color during the first exercise. </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Also on Friday we will work in the studio on a still life color study.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The landscape looks different at noon than it did at sunrise. The color of the light illuminating the subject effects the local color of every object, this is known as the light key. </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">By understanding light key you can create a mood in your paintings. </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">To get experience with this concept, we will paint a simple still life twice, once illuminated by a warm lightbulb, and once illuminated under a cool lightbulb. The local colors of your still life will be transformed in a similar way that the landscape is transformed at different times of day. </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the second day, we will be painting the landscape on location. I will demonstrate my full color seeing and painting technique that I use when painting en plein air. After my demonstration, you will set up your easel outdoors and and paint your own en plein air color study. We will build on the concepts from the first day, and you will gain even more mileage in observing the light key and mixing color while painting in the landscape. </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the third day, I will give a short demo, recapping all of the concepts from the first two days of class. You will have a large chunk of time to paint on the third day. At the end of the painting day, we will have a critique of all of our paintings, and some time to close up the class.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj1iUW5LWMSI3AW0x_qudjJ6Dv4T24oNWFQ_fyXUX_nAhlMYEjjH-T_xy-hWSBREM4hZYjFQYxr8aqTvRT0XNfuQPc6BVLkUX_E-4N46eit4cMhNBHv_ymSmIKT71pHhMK1oJVNuBEr80/s619/Screen+Shot+2021-03-23+at+9.18.11+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="494" data-original-width="619" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj1iUW5LWMSI3AW0x_qudjJ6Dv4T24oNWFQ_fyXUX_nAhlMYEjjH-T_xy-hWSBREM4hZYjFQYxr8aqTvRT0XNfuQPc6BVLkUX_E-4N46eit4cMhNBHv_ymSmIKT71pHhMK1oJVNuBEr80/s320/Screen+Shot+2021-03-23+at+9.18.11+AM.png" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></div>Kyle Martinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540885369847741277noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431458999258780548.post-3054559840648434462021-02-15T13:37:00.001-06:002021-02-15T13:37:13.776-06:00Frosty Vehicles and a couple Sunsets<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We are in the middle of the Polar Vortex, this morning the temperatures were -20 and the school that I work at had a two hour delay. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The paintings below were all painted this winter, but on warmer days.

If you would like to be notified when those workshops are announced, please email me at kylemartinfineart@gmail.com </p><p><br /></p><p>I replied to a thread on the plein air forums on wetcanvas, and thought I would share my thoughts on painting sky's here as well. Thanks for checking in!</p><p>Kyle</p><p>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p><p>Concerning Sky's. </p><p>One thing that I consider when starting a plein air work is, are we looking into the sun, or away from it? In the example below, I am looking into the sun under morning light. All of the particles of atmosphere are influencing the colors of the sky, and you can see a little lemon yellow color near the top of the painting, right in the middle. I was observing the sun in that space.</p><p><img alt="" height="362" src="https://www.wetcanvas.com/wp-content/uploads/hm_bbpui_temp/wzlrjif4c3ti9uf2hyptp5g7z8hp07p3.png" width="632" /></p><p>In this piece, I was painting during the golden hour. The sky was transforming very quickly before my eyes, and because I was looking away from the sun I was interested in the way that the color of the sky was different near the horizon vs higher up. I think that the key to painting a good sky is variety. </p><p><img alt="" src="https://www.wetcanvas.com/wp-content/uploads/hm_bbpui_temp/4j5cp42bl5dskk0h847d1wpkkxsylqe9.png" /></p><p>The piece below was painted in late afternoon, in early summer. The light is coming from the left. You can see yellow/green in the upper left corner of the sky and the color gradiates to a pthalo blue in the middle and then to a different blue in the right corner. Also, I used a violet color to underpaint the sky, and let some of that show through.</p><p><img alt="" src="https://www.wetcanvas.com/wp-content/uploads/hm_bbpui_temp/tgq182v985nq8wadulku87o9znbfetoy.png" /></p><p>There is a big thunderhead in the piece below, but still plenty of plain blue sky. I tend to underpaint my summer sky's with violets and pinks, and then paying attention to the landscape for clues as to how the sky color is changing from horizon to apex (having to do with atmospheric condititons), as well as how it gradates from side to side (having to do with where the sun is at).</p><p><img alt="" src="https://www.wetcanvas.com/wp-content/uploads/hm_bbpui_temp/4bxfjsuco2hqsjzwibzxf8zsdubuufhj.png" /></p><p>Below here, I started with a yellow ochre toned surface, and then underpainted with purple. I did the underpainting a value stop darker than the sky greens and blues that are on top of it. </p><p><img alt="" src="https://www.wetcanvas.com/wp-content/uploads/hm_bbpui_temp/i8mpsnvyplsyf5slg0u5k9p724qldprg.png" /></p><p> </p><p>There is much variety even on sunny days. One tip that you could do is to take a piece of cardboard, poke a hole in it, and observe the sky through the hole. Now, move it left to right, and up and down, and see how the sky color changes depending on where you look. </p><p>Also, get a mirror out, and while observing the sky in front of your face, reflect the sky from behind you and you will see a big contrast. As with all things ion painting, variety is the key. Have fun and post the results! </p>Kyle Martinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540885369847741277noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431458999258780548.post-71791717918687870232020-10-16T10:00:00.003-05:002020-10-16T10:06:40.618-05:00Virtual Fall Art Tour - Paintings are Live!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6EmQtC1gmdY" width="320" youtube-src-id="6EmQtC1gmdY"></iframe></div><br /><div class="SubheadingText" style="color: #00aad4; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><span color="#000000" style="color: black;">Hello,</span></div>

The subtle brilliance of the setting sun offers clarity and wipes away the business of the day. The golden hour offers inspiration in the moment, and it is a ritual for me to paint during this favorite time of day.<div><br /></div><div>The Fall Art Tour has gone virtual for 2020. </div><div><br /></div><div>I will be premiering new art every day, virtually, during the Fall Art Tour. </div><div><br /></div><div>On Friday October 16, at 10 am, I will premiere a new video featuring my Golden Hour collection. The paintings will also go live on my website and <a href="https://sellfy.com/kylemartinpaintings/">online store</a> for sale at that time. My Golden Hour pieces are my most treasured paintings, and this show is my way to share the moment and the feeling of the Golden Hour with you. </div><div><br /></div><div>On Saturday, October 17, at 10 am, I will be showing my new pastel paintings here on my blog and also on my online store. I enjoy working with pastels and find that they are a great compliment to my oil paintings. As an impressionist painter, pastels work well to layer different colors and to create shimmering effects. Autumn leaves falling, brilliant blue skies, and and intense evening colors will all be shown in my pastel paintings.</div><div><br /></div><div>On Sunday, October 18, at 10 am, I will be showing a selection of works from my archive. Some of these paintings will go back a dozen years. Standing at the easel, and painting on location burns the experience into my memory - when I look at paintings that I created over a decade ago, my mind travels back to the moment. It will be fun to revisit some works through the years and to share the stories of the paintings with you. </div><div><br /></div><div>It won't be the same Fall Art Tour, without you all in my Chicken Coop Studio, but I am going to do everything that I can to give you a great virtual show.</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnj0IBNnXmtzU091Z7ymZUx5kHiElodzkiEhNnCXRMqzSl9uv61ZBgnHRFSTvR4__fw_oJe2UQc8du8RpmlXgPn86Wr4ddcvCjYFmj2QL4Zi_F9BLmX8VP4a6FLlmwhEeZxwb85S70JQw/s2048/GOLDENHOURTerrytown+Golden+Hour+12x16+%2524450+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1554" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnj0IBNnXmtzU091Z7ymZUx5kHiElodzkiEhNnCXRMqzSl9uv61ZBgnHRFSTvR4__fw_oJe2UQc8du8RpmlXgPn86Wr4ddcvCjYFmj2QL4Zi_F9BLmX8VP4a6FLlmwhEeZxwb85S70JQw/s320/GOLDENHOURTerrytown+Golden+Hour+12x16+%2524450+copy.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9UAU4kxwQqVrOBwbiBz8KIeL44MbiNsqg3oxDH6xC0mFrvqSDen0sQvSj2GODMmliXtG2NAxsoZGqoE6s9qlfGQ2B5kXNqxebOXK1i9ymwh3gXIs8NntobUIdODHxqOoMhzJOecuZvkc/s2048/GoldenLightBarabooNeighborhood.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1556" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9UAU4kxwQqVrOBwbiBz8KIeL44MbiNsqg3oxDH6xC0mFrvqSDen0sQvSj2GODMmliXtG2NAxsoZGqoE6s9qlfGQ2B5kXNqxebOXK1i9ymwh3gXIs8NntobUIdODHxqOoMhzJOecuZvkc/s320/GoldenLightBarabooNeighborhood.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyB86hFI_j45N7KSadtyax5q1JRkKd7mSaqgx8fClx7ojWdkC3V8wvK00dMzDCyGTrJogHwhGbHUyJYYBkbAt-YuISGdGOchTaB9nxyaySFhF4Zsg7fgFvIU8luIBqEcQTvntFIiZZZbw/s2048/GOLDENLIGHTendofthedrivewaysunset6x8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyB86hFI_j45N7KSadtyax5q1JRkKd7mSaqgx8fClx7ojWdkC3V8wvK00dMzDCyGTrJogHwhGbHUyJYYBkbAt-YuISGdGOchTaB9nxyaySFhF4Zsg7fgFvIU8luIBqEcQTvntFIiZZZbw/s320/GOLDENLIGHTendofthedrivewaysunset6x8.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJQf7rXT9AY_ytKot8ToermJb3pInHLvMoWJ2b9dUgoutKYAKxikSInPccTRkNBiQxK8loX6InyWe8qB-MjgyWy0HUuU_TSsdwlIxU8E8PWMdvfZDABN1jgU6C5i_9K9QExeHadfrM4Nw/s2048/GOLDENLIGHTFarmVistaGoldenLight9x12+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJQf7rXT9AY_ytKot8ToermJb3pInHLvMoWJ2b9dUgoutKYAKxikSInPccTRkNBiQxK8loX6InyWe8qB-MjgyWy0HUuU_TSsdwlIxU8E8PWMdvfZDABN1jgU6C5i_9K9QExeHadfrM4Nw/s320/GOLDENLIGHTFarmVistaGoldenLight9x12+copy.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1m0LUKAvqSbPqqfT65Q_kNm0hcPbSpWsVtDozoUc9zzs7J_HMWukw2h8lgcjlj1OhoFRhSStPk1WXSP1lOAo487gWrWl9F_WRTN-nU83unw9ajNeZ2z8GqPDCBKTByHm4ZaaKS_rh4GY/s2048/GOLDENLIGHTpurpleclouds.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1m0LUKAvqSbPqqfT65Q_kNm0hcPbSpWsVtDozoUc9zzs7J_HMWukw2h8lgcjlj1OhoFRhSStPk1WXSP1lOAo487gWrWl9F_WRTN-nU83unw9ajNeZ2z8GqPDCBKTByHm4ZaaKS_rh4GY/s320/GOLDENLIGHTpurpleclouds.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /> </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Many artists on the Fall Art Tour have online stores, and you can check everyone out at fallarttour.com.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Kyle Martinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540885369847741277noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431458999258780548.post-4995952278271864032020-09-08T09:41:00.001-05:002020-09-15T11:53:56.158-05:00Late Summer Paintings<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Autumn is such a wonderful time of year.

When I was going to college at UW-Platteville, I used to drive past this scene of a barn, hills and trees every night on the way home. It always drew my attention, and I decided to paint it on my way home from the Mineral Point plein air festival - <i>Paint the Point.</i> I didn't enter this piece into the plein air show, because we could only enter two pieces, but I think that I captured somethign of the late evening on that day. Sometime, I will go back to this location, and paint a larger piece, but for now, I will remember the location by this little painting.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivnmt46lhx4hY346pZS24OBYKKUMDzV6KDS4-EvdBF_7TgoIyMIvyYifN3UOHsVlLYtBv4C164IGwQejsTxs6nzzN0FZeZ40y0pzgViDd8ijYhxsQdxTF0Byazu7wCd0Kzc7lEk6iHAHk/s2048/JulyFarm+8x10+%2524150.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1617" data-original-width="2048" height="258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivnmt46lhx4hY346pZS24OBYKKUMDzV6KDS4-EvdBF_7TgoIyMIvyYifN3UOHsVlLYtBv4C164IGwQejsTxs6nzzN0FZeZ40y0pzgViDd8ijYhxsQdxTF0Byazu7wCd0Kzc7lEk6iHAHk/w328-h258/JulyFarm+8x10+%2524150.jpg" width="328" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">July Farm 8x10" oil on panel <a href="https://sellfy.com/kylemartinpaintings/p/july-farm/">Link to Online Store</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is a farm outside of North Freedom on HWY PF. A classmate of mine farms out in this neighborhood, and there is a nice selection of fields of crops and farm buildings out in this area. I painted this over a couple of evenings, focusing on the golden light transforming the colors of the barn and hills as well as the dark shadows creeping onto the soybeans. Summer has such a special quality of light, the humidity creates dirty purples and pinks in the sky at this time of evening, and I was happy to be painting it.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK6aB6hJnVk6Q80vRcKuWuYiZz4dzNtqvgaZYvTq11_UEUEMhpH3NjVfz0MIBD1HHgLCol14HclgNhd5AkDldmkB9jTnNtp91SorMirGG0MSCxeRTj0jz3f2ixQHKkeRbmcrda2EpWBL0/s2048/Midsummer+Evening+6x8+%2524100.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1562" data-original-width="2048" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK6aB6hJnVk6Q80vRcKuWuYiZz4dzNtqvgaZYvTq11_UEUEMhpH3NjVfz0MIBD1HHgLCol14HclgNhd5AkDldmkB9jTnNtp91SorMirGG0MSCxeRTj0jz3f2ixQHKkeRbmcrda2EpWBL0/w328-h250/Midsummer+Evening+6x8+%2524100.jpg" width="328" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Midsummer Evening 6x8" oil on panel <a href="https://sellfy.com/kylemartinpaintings/p/midsummer-evening/">Link To Online Store</a> - Sold</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love these summer evenings, where the sun breaks through the clouds, creating contrasts of yellows and violet clouds.

I was drawn to the light on the barn, and the fence created a nice element to the painting as well.

This was the second painting that I did on the first day, after the barn shown above, and after I got back from skateboarding at the Platteville skatepark. I wasn't planning to paint this tractor, but when I say it sitting there, with the angle that it was parked at, and with the light illuminating it, I couldn't resist.

love painting the special quality of light that is present in Mid-July.
During this humid time of year, there are particles of moisture in the
air that create a prismatic effect of light falling on the landscape. To
me, nothing is better to me than painting the summer light. It often
seems that painting was made for July. </span></div>

Green hills can look dramatically different from day-to-day, and even

moisture particles in the air created a quality of atmospheric

<span _mce_style="color: #606060;" style="color: #606060;">Even
though I try to drive down every back road in my area, I can still find
new places to paint. I was curious what I would find in the hills East
of Loganville, and this scene made me pull the car over and paint
immediately, it was very inspiring. I was drawn to the pattern and shape
of the treelines and hills in the background, the long shadows being
cast over the foreground, and of course the old red barn. The evening
light is poetic to paint, and it was a joy to paint all the while
keeping the shapes simple and the color fresh.</span><br />

noticed this field of round bales one afternoon, while driving to Sauk
City to have dinner for my Mom's birthday. The bales were still in the
field when I got home late in the evening, so I loaded up my palette and
worked quickly to capture the warm effect of light contrasting the cool
shadows. This was also the first day that the mosquito's were
noticable, and between them, the smell of fresh cut hay, and the golden
light, it felt like summer. </span><br />

<span _mce_style="color: #000000;" style="color: black;">I always set
aside time to paint down by the tracks in July. Even though the tracks
stop here, there is a bike trail that starts here and continues along
the route that the trains used to take. Even though the old warehouses
no are no longer used, there is still a working Feed Mill in the
building on the right side of this painting. The purple lady rock lines
the old tracks, which point to the West. </span><br />

I love capturing the change of season in my paintings. The month of May was beautiful this year. The trees started the month bare and now they are full with summer leaves. I decided to paint as much as I could in the Spring, to capture the transition that the landscape is going through. I ended up completing 32 paintings, and I am sharing many of them with you in this post, along with a couple from the last week in April. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I read somewhere recently that the meaning of momentum is having an idea and not talking yourself out of it. That is a good way to sum up my month of painting. If I saw something with good shapes of color, I set up my easel and I painted it. </div>

I was surrounded by beautiful things to paint on this Sunday afternoon. There was a backlit scene with blossoming trees to my left, and another subject to my right. I decided to paint the light falling onto Park Street and the Queen Anne house. There were buds forming on the trees which gave me some lovely spring greens, and also great contrast of light and shadow.</td></tr>

This was the second painting that I worked on on this day. On my way home, I noticed the shape of the yellow tree on the left hand of the painting. The leaves were brilliant yellow, and the tree had been cut back so that it wouldn't grow into the power lines. This shape was enough to peak my interest.and I painted one shape of color next to another, creating a abstract and simple painting that is a lot of fun to look at.</td></tr>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">May 7 - Pawlisch Magnolia - 12x16" oil on panel - $350<br />
There are some signs of Spring that appear before the pink magnolia trees, such as fresh chartreuse grass and bright yellow forsythia, but the magnolia is my favorite sign of spring. I paint them every year and I learn more about them every year. I have painted this particular magnolia a couple of times, once from the porch of the house, and once very close up. On this day, the tree was lit up by the afternoon sun, while the house behind it was backlit. The contrast of bright pink magnolia against the blue/grey house made me want to capture this magnolia again this year.</td></tr>

The rolling hills come to life with color each year in the springtime. For this scene, I was looking into the sun, which created a dramatic contrast of light and color. I used a broken color technique for this painting, to capture the shards of light.</td></tr>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">May 9 - North Freedom Farm under Morning Light - 16 x 20" $500<br />
This was painted under morning light, and the contrast is much softer than the afternoon light of the painting from the day before. The painting shares the broken color technique, but this one has a more restrained pastel palette. The effect of the atmosphere decides how my paintings look, I simply have to stay open to whatever the day brings.</td></tr>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">May 11 - Backlit trees in the Marsh - 12 x 16" $350<br />
I am surrounded by fields, farms, the river and marsh. In the springtime, when the light shines through the budding trees, they become so illuminated that they look like they are on fire. The way that I capture the light, shining through the transparent buds, is by using a wash of thin paint to create the shapes of the trees. The thin paint works almost like stained glass, the light reflects off of the white canvas, and gives a brilliant and rich color. If I was to mix white with the yellow/orange of the trees, the color would become chalky, and not have the radiant effect of light. Capturing these sorts of fleeting effects, and learning how we see the light, makes painting challenging but more enjoyable.</td></tr>

Baraboo is full of flowering trees in May, and when the sun shines, there is so much beauty in the neighborhoods. I stood in a bank parking lot, and painted this white house and plum tree from across busy 8th Street under mid-afternoon sun. I was starting to pick up a lot of momentum, by painting every day, and I think it will come across that I was in a great mood on this day.</td></tr>

In Baraboo, East Street is lined with Serviceberry Trees, which are a delight to observe and a fun challenge to paint. I can remember painting these same trees 10 years ago, and discovering that Prussian blue (lightened with white) and Naples yellow light created the color of the Serviceberry trees on my palette. Of course the light of the day affects this color as well, and on this day the bright afternoon sun made the lit up masses of trees, road and church even warmer. Two of my students hung around while I painted this. They remarked that they couldn't tell what I was painting, and that might be true, but I reminded them that sometimes the subject is the color and the light of the day vs. recognizable subject matter.</td></tr>

On this day, I got a chance to paint it, and I am glad that I did. The blue of the sky was reflecting off the little stream, and the yellow/green leaves on the young birch trees were shimmering in the afternoon breeze. Everything was fresh on that day, with spring light and color.</td></tr>

I painted this neighborhood a few years ago, and returned because of the beautiful light and color on this afternoon. There was a bright red cherry tree in blossom next to the blue house, and behind that a large magnolia in front of the grey house. Some painters feel like green is a harsh color and they try to tone their greens down. To me, there is very little that is more beautiful than bright green grass on a spring day. If I was to subdue the green, some of the poetry of Spring would be lost.</td></tr>

The golden hour effect of light flattened the shapes of the trees and the church on this afternoon, which made them very graphic and fun to paint. On the right hand of the painting is the Little Village Restaurant and the Al Ringling theater. I was visited by a fellow teacher on this day, and also someone who was picking flowers on the square. The abstract shapes that make up this painting were painted rapidly, and as the light faded I was pleased that I was able to capture the fleeting effect in the language of paint.</td></tr>

This was a beautiful, sunny afternoon which came after 4 days of clouds and rain. I originally went to Baraboo with the idea to paint near the library. On the way, I saw this scene, and stopped to paint it instead. It's easy to make plans of where to go and paint, but it's often better to just go out and keep our eyes open for subjects.<br />
My goal with this scene, was to have the yellow of the house and gazebo remain in shadow, while the railing on the porch was in light along with the blue shed and pink cherry tree.</td></tr>

Corbin joined me on this evening painting session, and I always enjoy it when she comes along with me. I think I paint better when she is along because she is always giving me such good compliments as I'm painting. She knows that I'm pushing for more abstraction and it's never a bad idea to have a second set of eyes on a painting. This backlit scene was very dramatic, and the light was changing quickly as I observed, mixed, and painted the flowering tree that was in front of the shed. Backlit scenes make for dramatic and easily seen shapes, and there were plenty of sparkles of color on the edges of shapes for me to play with. </td></tr>

I was in Madison a couple of days on this week, and I noticed this shiny blue Bug parked in front of Percy's VW service station. I came back the next morning, and the car had moved, but it still looked great. The owner of the shop let me know that the owner of the Bug was on the way, and that I had an hour and a half to paint before the car would move. I set up and worked quickly to capture the light falling onto the curves of the bug.<br />
I met so many great people on that day! The owner of the Bug was happy that I decided to paint it, and I also spoke to a family whose house I painted near 3 years ago. I had a great conversation with that family, they said that when I painting near their house, there was a vintage Jaguar parked nearby, and they thought it was mine. That made me smile. The painting that I worked on that day happened to be a springtime scene of a magnolia in front of a white house, and the woman ended up purchasing it off of the easel. When I went inside, she had a great collection of art, including some work by Elliot Clausen.<br />
Adding to the challenge, was the weather. The sun would shine for a few minutes, and then clouds would roll in for a few minutes. I mixed the colors when the sun was shining, and painted when the sun was behind the clouds. I captured the essentials of the bug, and was able to finish just as the owner took the car home.</td></tr>

I have spent a lot of time on the University of Wisconsin campus, and I have created a lot of good memories there. When I was in my early 20's, just graduating college, the clutch in my Ford truck went out in the exact spot that I painted this from. I thought I could reverse the truck, into a parking spot down the hill, but ended up going sideways into the road, and had to stop traffic and wait for a tow truck. It's funny that I think of that more than all of the times that we used to skateboard down the steep hill. That's just my take on this location, and I'm sure those of you who have spent time on campus have your own stories to add.</td></tr>

On the last day of May, I found myself in a neighborhood that I hadn't painted in before. This is the Alt family farm outside of Plain. I stopped in and introduced myself to the farmer, and let him know I was hoping to paint the farm from the side of the road. He was very nice, and let me know that I could pull my car onto a field road, and drive up a hill, in between a hayfield and cornfield to paint if I liked. He was right, the view was even better than I had seen from the road. I'll be back to paint in this area in the future. The rolling hills and old barns make for great compositions.</td></tr>

Baraboo is full of colorful trees in late October, and this afternoon was one of the nicest days of the Fall.

This is a favorite place to pull over and paint, and I return a few times each year to capture this farm and the bluffs behind it. on this afternoon, there was a wonderful quality of light falling onto the snow.

2019 is the 26th year of the Fall Art Tour, and we are a month away! The Dates are October 18, 19, and 20th from 10am - 6pm daily.<br />
<br />
The tour is always a high point of my year, and I'm sure a hilight of all the artists on the tour. It is our chance to open up our studios and share our work with the public.<br />
<br />
There are 43 artists studios who will be open to the public that weekend. We have a brochure that acts as your treasure map to the studios. I am attaching the artists listings from the brochure below. If you would like your own physical copy of the brochure, you can email me at: kylemartinfineart@gmail.com and I will get one in the mail for you.<br />
<br />
I will look forward to seeing you on the Fall Art Tour!<br />

I always try to get the best images of my work as I can, but a photograph of a painting will always leave something to be desired. If you would like to see my summer paintings in person, please set up a time to visit my in my chicken coop studio, or plan to visit me on the 2019 Fall Art Tour which is October 18, 19, and 20. </div>

This was painted in early May. It was one of the first nice evenings of the year, there were buds appearing on the trees for the first time and great golden light. For me, this meant that I was seeing colors in the landscape that I had not seen for some time. I painted this from the parking lot of the new Baraboo police station, in the shadow from a huge quartz rock that they excavated when they were digging the foundation for the police station. </td></tr>

I set up my easel in Vernon County a couple of weeks ago and painted this farm in a valley. There is a little stream running alongside the pasture, and several layers of hills in the distance. Vernon county is just far enough away that I don't paint there very often, but when I do get there it all feels new. I also filmed my painting session, and the video is below.<br />

I drive past these cows every day on the way to Baraboo, and have painted the farm several times. On this day, the barnyard was flooded, and the water made for an interesting blue shape at the bottom of the canvas. One cow in particular became very interested in me, and I became interested in her as well. She sort of stole the show on this one.</td></tr>

This was a demonstration painting that I gave at the Peninsula School of Art in June. The building depicted is the School/Gallery and it is a very interesting structure. It is sort of like a double layered round barn with a cupola. The gardens at the school are always well done and on this day there was a blossoming tree that I could not resist in the foreground. </td></tr>

I have two spots left for the plein air workshop at my farm, on June 22 and 23. The cost of the class is $200. If you would like to register, please email me at: kylemartinfineart@gmail.com<br />
<br />
The class will be from 9:30 - 4:40 on each day. I will start each day with a marker sketch and plein air demonstration painting. The focus of the demo's is composition, values, and color. I have some special tools that we use that will help you to paint the light. After I demo, we will break for lunch, and then it's time for you to set up your easel and paint. We will cover a lot of ground, you will take home some new concepts. Most of all, I want to show you how you can make better paintings and have more fun when you are painting.<br />
<br />

<span _mce_style="font-size: 10pt;" style="font-size: 10pt;">This piece was painted on an April evening, standing in the corn field to the east of my studio. I found it hard to look directly at the sun, so I relied on a mirror to look at the scene backwards for much of the information that I needed. As the sun set, it's intensity obscured outlines of the shapes of buildings and added color to an otherwise muddy scene. </span></div>

<span _mce_style="font-size: 10pt;" style="font-size: 10pt;">Plein air painting is always a discovery. Had I gone out on this day with a pre-conceived notion of what I wanted the painting to look like, something quite different would have emerged. I teach a way of painting that enables you to see as a painter, and how to use your perceptions as a point of departure into your creativity. Painting is one path to finding beauty in everyday, seemingly-unimportant experiences, and I hope to share in that with you.</span></div>
