Monday, February 25, 2013. Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra (DSSO) Celebration Project. The DSSO is not just for listening to any more! Now you will be able to see. The DSSO has launched the Music Conductor Artistic Expression Celebration Project. Visual artists and poets have been asked to create work interpreting conductors Mr. Thakar or Mr. Meyer at work. The finished work will benefit the DSSO on various levels. I am happy to announce that I am a part of it. Over the Lake" oil. Meet me on Facebook.

Michelle Wegler Art: January 2013
http://michelleweglerart.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 28, 2013. I decided to make the river scene the same size as the flower scene. The flowers were kept to a minimum to emphasize the clouds and their reflections on the water. I also wanted to give this painting more of a feel of standing on the water's edge, so the flowers were included as a fringe at the viewer's feet. The woman who originally contacted me to create the first painting purchased this painting. That was a pleasant and unexpected surprise! Labels: art as gift. The final sket...

Michelle Wegler Art: June 2012
http://michelleweglerart.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 20, 2012. Portraits in Pastel - Red Heads! A year of work came to a delightful peak at the opening reception for "Portraits: Fair to Fiery.". Gathered together were all the paintings, family and friends, many of the models, and well wishers. It was a delight to have such a nice crowd at the event. Non artists have little idea how important it is to have people attend reception events. Why paint them if no one is to view them? Who do you know? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Meet me on Facebook.

Michelle Wegler Art: Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra (DSSO) Celebration Project
http://michelleweglerart.blogspot.com/2013/04/duluth-superior-symphony-orchestra-dsso.html
Monday, April 8, 2013. Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra (DSSO) Celebration Project. While listening to the Carmina Burana Suite during the earth harp concert at the New Year's Eve DSSO concert, various images went through my mind. There were the lights, the conductor, the musicians, and the hard work put out by the harp player. You could even feel the sound. How was I going to express the feeling in a painting? Something in the painting touched me. Forest interior, by Gustav Klimt. What do you "see"?

Michelle Wegler Art: Art lessons from a Master Painter - James Whistler
http://michelleweglerart.blogspot.com/2011/08/art-lessons-from-master-painter-james.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Art lessons from a Master Painter - James Whistler. The painting on the cover of a book. Caught my eye: a night scene by Whistler. I was not familiar with his night and seascape paintings, so I bought the book. I knew I was going to be painting a view of a harbor at night in the coming weeks at the Grand Marais Plein Air Painting Competition. The sun sets quickly, so. I started a sketch while it was still light. Great post, Mom. August 30, 2011 at 4:26 PM. Meet me on Facebook.

Michelle Wegler Art: Flowering Hillside
http://michelleweglerart.blogspot.com/2013/03/flowering-hillside.html
Wednesday, March 27, 2013. There are certain places that just beg to be painted over and over. I visited such a park with some painting friends. There is always the preliminary walk-about, looking for the best spot, then the set up of easels and supplies. This day was not too hot, so I didn't need to hide myself in the shade. I chose a spot at the base of a hill. Touched by Gold (top). Time to Dream (bottom). Each are 6x8, oil. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Meet me on Facebook.

Monday, March 18, 2013. Art lessons from a Master Painter - James Whistler Real Thing. When in Chicago, I make it a point to visit the Art Institute of Chicago. It is fabulous, but more about that.

Michelle Wegler Art: September 2012
http://michelleweglerart.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 19, 2012. Painting vs. Painting. My husband and I recently bought a new house while still owning our "old" house, making us a two-house family. That translates to 7 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, 2 kitchens and an acre of lawn! Much of my summer has been spent painting one house to get it ready to sell, and the other house to get it ready to move into. Not the kind of painting I prefer to do! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
