Painting in the Hyatt Moore studio continues to be an exploration of themes and approaches. It’s in composing this monthly blog that gives the appearance of continuity. The pieces here have all been produced this year, are all available, and can be seen on the Standing Portraits<\/a> page of the website.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Black Dress<\/a>, 43×24,
\nWhite Skirt<\/a>, 46×28,
\nBlue Smock<\/a>, 47×28<\/h6>\n

All of the seven shown are of approximately the same size. The arrangement here is only to provide some organization of thought. Black Dress<\/em> (left) started as a demo and long after finished in studio. By then I’d become used to the understated look and left it pretty much that way. White Skirt<\/em>\u00a0incorporated a (new for me) drawing\u00a0technique with\u00a0oil bar. Click on the picture(s) for a better view of detail.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Museum Girl<\/a>,
\n47×28,
\nBlue Muse on Red<\/a>, 47×28<\/h6>\n

The two shown here and the two to follow are all from photos on my camera. In the above instances, it’s the particular gesture that caught my attention. The paintings are a combination of imagined color and, in all four cases, lots of line work, even charcoal, introduced and left in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Red Shawl<\/a>,
\n47×29,
\nRed Handbag<\/a>, 47×28<\/h6>\n

The photos are from travels, Red Shawl<\/em> shot in South Africa (though she was from India) and Red Handbag<\/em> photographed on the streets of Kyoto, Japan. In style, these are part drawing, part painting. But then, painting is always based on drawing, just not usually so\u00a0apparent. It reveals something of the process of the art making, and gives a pleasing element, don’t you think?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Austerity Pleasures<\/a>, 13×20<\/h6>\n

Austerity Pleasures<\/em> is one of a number of recent pieces of Anne’s on display at Laguna’s Sandstone Gallery where she is the featured artist this month. The show opens today, during the popular First Thursday Art Walk. How she comes up with these titles is one of her many mysteries, along with the slightly comprehensible script within the piece itself. As with all of these, they should be seen in person to fully appreciate. Come if you can.<\/p>\n

And plan to come to our open house and show, next month. Details are below. It would be great to see you, and I know you’d love it all, too.<\/p>\n
