This was the third painting I did in my Beginning Painting class last spring ['04]. We were given an artist and had to pick a landscrape around Clemson that is rarely seen in other prints and then represent it using the given artist's style of painting I had Wayne Thiebald...he paints thickly, almost like icing on a cake at times [which is the subject of several of his most renowned paintings] and he takes different perspectives and views of a landscape then combines them in one picture...usually representing the huge hills of San Francisco. I combined an area by a student parking lot, then went over a hill [one of the largest in Clemson] and did the same road further down near the stadium. This picture has been cropped..there's more to the left and top..including the rest of that big tree in the foreground and some in the very back..plus the stadium..but it sucked so I didn't mind cropping it out. haha. Fun stuff, cropping.
This is acrylic paint on canvas...12 X 36. |
