Musings by Janelle Goodwin: Summer Studio Painting
http://janellegoodwin.blogspot.com/2014/07/summer-studio-painting.html
Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Friday, July 11, 2014. Oil on Stretched Canvas. Some artists enjoy painting plein air. I've done my share of painting outdoors, painting directly from nature. But over time I come to realize that I'm more of a "memory painter". I can observe the landscape in silence. From there I record with my camera or sometimes simply from my own interpretation of memory. Amazing: You can paint so much from memory, another beauty. July 11, 2014 at 9:46 AM.

Musings by Janelle Goodwin: June 2013

Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Wednesday, June 5, 2013. Oil on Linen Covered Panel. One of the best parts of summer, I believe, is getting up with the sun. I prefer open windows in summer. That way the sounds of the birds wakes me up before first light. There is a kind of spiritual beauty to watching the sun rise at the start of a new day. Like opening a present. Links to this post.

Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Sunday, July 21, 2013. Oil on Stretched Canvas. We're in the middle of summer already, hard to believe. I love the sounds of the outdoors at this time of year, when it's cool enough to turn the air conditioner off and open the doors and windows. Mostly it's the sounds of the cicadas buzzing. Like a long exhale. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Janelle Goodwin Fine Art. Glen ellyn, IL, United States. View my complete profile. Please click on impressionsbyjanelle.

Musings by Janelle Goodwin: November 2012

Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Thursday, November 8, 2012. Here Comes the Bride. My daughter, Jessica, got married on September 22 this year. This bridal gown was my mother's, mine and now hers. As you can see there are lots of buttons going down the back and it took me and two bridesmaids, taking turns. to get them all buttoned. The flower girl counted them as 46 in all. Links to this post.

Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Monday, November 3, 2014. A Most Inspring Quote. Oil on Stretched Canvas. I read a most inspiring quote recently. I need to use it as my mantra every time I get ready to paint. There is a vitality, a life-force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost." (Martha Graham). Links to this post. Last ...

Musings by Janelle Goodwin: Eucharisteo
http://janellegoodwin.blogspot.com/2014/06/eucharisteo.html
Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Monday, June 2, 2014. Oil on Stretched Canvas. Eucharisteo is a beautiful word, simply meaning gratitude or thanksgiving. Today I'm feeling healthy and whole and I'm grateful. Back in April, I had an unexpected thing happen to me. I caught the flu. The kind that involves vomiting and that kind of thing. Usually people rebound from this after about three days. But I wasn't getting any better. Now I'm back to normal and feel extremely grateful. Eucharisteo. June 2, 2014 at 5:34 ...

Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Monday, May 20, 2013. Warm or Cold Weather. Oil on Cradled Panel. This time of year I enjoy the cool of the evening. Today reached into the low nineties. My seasonal clothes are stored in my mother's cedar chest, which I inherited from her. Out came the shorts, sleeveless tees and sandals. I said farewell to my favorite sweaters until next autumn. How would you describe yourself? Links to this post. Tonalism. oil painting. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Janelle Goodwin Fine Art.

Musings by Janelle Goodwin: August 2013
http://janellegoodwin.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Thursday, August 29, 2013. Oil on Stretched Linen. I have been reading a big hefty book this summer entitled "A History of Tonalism: 1880-1920". It isn't the kind of book that I would read cover to cover. It is the kind where I read some and then ponder on the morsels. In it are beautiful examples of the great American Tonalist works by artists such as George Inness, Homer Dodge Martin, John Henry Twatchtman and James McNeill Whistler. It was a time of renewal and hope. Lynne ...

Musings by Janelle Goodwin. Sunday, August 17, 2014. The Essence of Things. This small painting just sold through my Etsy store. It is one of the simplest paintings I think I've ever done. To me it describes the essence of what I love about the landscape. I have other paintings from years past that are more technically accurate. But over the years I found that I wanted to express something different. There is spirit in the landscape. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Janelle Goodwin Fine Art.
