100 OIL PORTRAITS IN 100 DAYS - Stape, 52/100, © Carol Nelson Fine Art
Day 52
This is Stapleton Kearns, professional landscape painter living in New England. I first became aware of Stape's writing through his postings in Fine Art Views, a free art newsletter published by Clint Watson.
Stape's blog is a learning experience with wonderful examples of composition fundamentals and a wealth of artful tips. You should definitely bookmark his blog.
I had such fun painting this portrait of Stape taken by one of his students at one of his snow camp workshops. There's so many fun things in the photo - the two hats, the glasses, the condensation on his mustache, and fabulous lighting.
For purchase information, please see my website or email me at carolnelsonfineart@comcast.net.
Don't forget, VOTING on portraits 41-50 ends tonight. Pick your favorite and email me your choice. THANKS!
