Artful Painter

Cynthia Rosen would rather paint outdoors working on location. Her paintings radiate an exuberant celebration of sparkling light, brilliant colors, and a world in motion. Cynthia’s marks are made boldly, with confidence, using a palette knife to apply luscious thick blocks of colors. Though she went to school to study art when she was younger, Cynthia put on pause painting while teaching and raising a family. In time, her burning desire to paint full-time was rekindled. She self-studied – learning from Facebook painting groups and workshops. Soon she was enthusiastically painting outdoors and participating in plein air events.

Viewing one of Cynthia's paintings is like listening to an improvisational jazz band. There is movement, rhythm, syncopation, dynamic range, unexpected interludes, and rich texture. Describing her approach to painting, she says there are two sides to her that have not totally melted yet. There is the very abstract side of her, influenced by non-objective color field artists such as Mark Rothko, and then there is her love of beautiful representational art. The resulting alchemy of abstract and representational art is work that sings in Cynthia’s unique, expressive voice. And, it’s a voice that some in the plein air community did not initially appreciate. Yet she stuck to her creative vision, one that connects with the many buyers of her art. To see one of Cynthia Rosen’s paintings is to see the hand of an artist who is not afraid of letting loose with color.

Suzie Baker’s paintings are full of light, color, and texture. Her paintings fill the viewer with questions, with the whole story not revealed. She seeks to evoke a response from the viewer by not filling in all the blanks. Her technique is loose, painterly, and impressionistic. Yet, she does not let one technique or style constrain her art - she experiments and pushes boundaries. The result is continuing improvement as an artist. Just as one who seeks to not only learn a new language, but also learn to express themselves more clearly, Suzie desires to seek better ways to express her response to the world around her in ever more fascinating and innovative ways.

In this conversation with Suzie, she shares her thoughts and amazing experiences participating in plein air painting events. We talk about coping as artists in difficult times. Suzie is a board member of the Oil Painters of America organization. She explains the mission of OPA, and the benefits of being a member. As we talk, it is evident that community is important to her. She loves to paint with others. She loves encouraging others. She embraces the challenge of competition. She enjoys teaching and coaching other artists in her workshops.

It’s clear in this conversation that Suzie Baker, as an artist, is on a quest of always Raising the Bar.

Kyle Ma is an extraordinary artist and a student of geology. His keen observation skills are honed by his geoscience training at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas. Whether he paints the figure, the landscape, or florals, his confident brush work and solid drawing skills expertly express his emotional response to what he sees. Kyle believes inspiration can truly be pulled from anything or anywhere.

In this inspiring conversation with Kyle, I was profoundly impressed with his humility. He has studied with some of the finest artists in the world. Though he would not personally admit this, he is easily their peer. Kyle candidly admits to feelings of inadequacy after taking workshops, wondering afterwards if he is even a good painter. Determined and disciplined, he doesn’t let doubt stop him. He has a quiet confidence in his approach to painting. He thoughtfully considers the lessons he has learned, picks up his brush, and carefully considers each stroke before committing it to his canvas.

Whatever the subject is, he is passionate about painting it as he feels it. Whether he paints outdoors or inside, Kyle Ma is resolved to keeping an open mind.

Jonathan McPhillips’ paintings shimmer with atmosphere and sparkle with light. Each painting he creates he views as a welcome problem to solve, a delightful puzzle to piece together, and a celebration of his surroundings. Working equally in the studio and on location, his work includes the harbors, beaches, vessels, and architecture of the coastal marine environment of New England including his home in Rhode Island. Chasing the ever changing light and air drives Jonathan to paint. The perception of atmosphere viewers sense in his paintings is the result of his impressionistic style, tempered by a touch of realism and draftsmanship. Whether he paints indoors or outdoors his method of painting is similar.

In this edition of the Artful Painter, Jonathan shares his multifaceted approach to painting. He relates how his early art education that focused on modern art influenced his work in a positive way. Jonathan encourages artists to take advantage of technology to promote their work. He candidly talks about working with galleries and that he views his relationship with galleries as a partnership. Jonathan teaches a number of workshops and explains his approach to teaching and how artists can best benefit from the experience. When faced with a myriad of choices in painting, Jonathan reveals he is drawn to scenes that show man’s intervention in the landscape. Indeed, as you peer into Jonathan McPhillips' paintings, you see a story only partially shown, perhaps suggesting a mystery, and capturing the presence of man.

Nancy Tankersly approaches painting with experimentation and curiosity. The results are impressionistic paintings that are not so much about the subject as it is about shapes. Her fascination with shapes perhaps began when she excelled in geometry in school. She began her painting career as a portrait painter. However, Nancy's inquisitive and experimental nature compelled her to branch out. Today she finds beautiful shapes to paint in the landscape, figure, and still life. She uses non-traditional tools, supports, and technology to express her impressionistic style.

When Nancy and her husband moved to Easton, Maryland, several years ago, she founded her own gallery and co-founded Easton Plein Air – considered one the premier annual plein air events in the world. Today, Nancy enjoys the rhythm of teaching, working in her studio, painting outside.

Nancy is one of three judges invited to the 6th Annual Olmsted Plein Air Invitational - serving alongside Leslie Lobell and Chris Garvin. In this episode, she candidly talks about the judging process and offers helpful advice to artists who participate in competitions. Nancy talks about the importance of getting to know who you are as an artist. She explains that experimentation is the key to the growth of an artist - a quest she continues to this day. Nancy Tankersly’s paintings expressively convey feeling, each securely anchored by the rich, beautiful poetry of the underlying geometry of shapes.

Patrick Saunders’ paintings have won many awards and received much recognition. His studio works earned him membership in notable painting organizations, including becoming a signature member of Oil Painters of America. When Patrick began plein air painting in 2013, he won awards from numerous nationally recognized events and organizations. However, whether he paints indoors or outdoors, he does not want to be known by where he paints. He doesn’t want to be known as a plein air painter nor as a studio painter. Rather, he considers himself simply as a painter drawn to many subjects.

The subject matter of his paintings include landscapes, cityscapes, animals and pets, and florals. Many of these subjects Patrick discovers along the thousands of miles he and his wife, photographer Kimberly Saunders, travel in their Airstream across the country. Patrick avoids the many sweeping vistas he travels through, preferring to capture the intimate details of life. As he and his wife travel, he searches out the colors, textures, and values of everyday life that are all too often taken for granted.

In this episode, Patrick talks about the challenge of overcoming preconceptions about how something should be painted. It requires keen observation of what is before us. Our belief that some subjects are more difficult to paint than others may also be the result of deeply rooted preconceptions. Careful observation, and the willingness to view art making as a series of little mistakes corrected and adjusted throughout our painting session helps us overcome our preconceived notions about painting. Patrick Saunders work clearly demonstrate that he diligently strives to paint with no preconceptions.

Matt Ryder is an award-winning British artist living and working in Dubai of the United Arab Emirates. Matt finds inspiration in the wild beauty of the natural world – whether it’s land, sea, or sky. It’s astonishing that there are still wild places left in the world that have not been painted. That’s the unique situation Matt finds himself in where he lives in the Middle East. Matt takes advantage of the cooler seasons to paint outdoors among the majestic mountains where few people live. Inspired by John Singer Sargent’s landscape paintings - The Moraine and Simplon Pass – Matt strives to capture the feel of the rugged, boulder-filled landscape before him. Braving desert heat, enduring “you shouldn’t be here” looks from people in rare encounters, and bemused by camels curious about what he is doing – these are all in a day’s plein air painting session with Matt Ryder.

Before these isolated landscapes change and are lost forever, Matt is on a mission to capture with oil paint the extraordinary, rugged beauty of these wild lands unseen by most of us. Matt Ryder is truly an enthusiastic painter, earnestly painting these wondrous and mysterious landscapes with a clear vision.

Michael Chamberlain says that if Vincent Van Gogh were alive today, he would be a vlogger on YouTube. Van Gogh was a prolific letter writer to an audience of one - his brother Theo. However, as a vlogger on YouTube van Gogh’s message would likely reach hundreds of thousands of fans. As a 21st century California-based impressionist, Michael inspires an audience on YouTube of well over 160,000 subscribers. In his videos, he tries to show the mistakes he makes. He candidly admits that none of the paintings in his videos are gallery ready. Upon returning to his home studio, he tenaciously works out whatever problems they may have until they are ready to hang in a gallery.

You know that old adage, “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks?” Michael says it isn’t true! He says an old dog has more time and experiences that can make us better students of painting. The key to learning is coming to grips with the rate of failure. Failure is a necessary part of the process. When first starting out learning to paint it’s all too easy to believe in the myth of the genius. Michael admonishes that we can’t allow ourselves to buy into the illusion that professional artists turn out one great painting after another. Indeed, there are many failures in between the good ones.

Michael says that the difference between a good painter and a great painter is the ability to say “I’m going to figure this out and I’m going to be tenacious about solving these problems.” And that is exactly what he strives to do: Michael Chamberlain is tenaciously forging his own way.

George Van Hook is a painter adept in both oil and watercolor. What he paints is a visual response to the subject before him – whether it’s the landscape, a figure, or still life. The rich textures, harmonious colors, and design of Van Hook’s paintings are the ultimate expression of two converging forces – the external beauty of the world around him and his deep internal emotional response to what he sees.

George Van Hook lives in Cambridge, New York – a beautiful nineteenth-century village in the Hudson Valley. His artistic journey began early in his life, and like Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, it took him through many formative experiences and places that influenced him to become the fine art artist he is today. In high school, he traveled throughout France and England working as a filmmaker. This experience exposed George to the wealth of museums in Europe and their priceless treasures of fine art. Seeing firsthand the breathtaking art in these museums nurtured within him a deep interest in not only art history but also in becoming a professional artist.

In this exuberant conversation, George Van Hook shares his fascinating take on art history, his philosophy of creating fine art, the rewards of working closely with artist friends who are dear to him, and the meaning of truth and honesty in art.

Jim McVicker imbues atmosphere and light into his paintings that stir the heart. Whether it’s an expansive view of the Pacific coast near his home in Humboldt County, California, or an intimate interior still life set within his studio – his paintings are filled with a sense of solace and peace. Jim began painting full time in the mid-1970s. His early education as a painter began when working closely with artists Curtis Otto, James B. Moore, and George Van Hook. Painting nearly every day together, Jim assimilated what he observed, but developed his own voice. Though his primary joy is in painting representational art, Jim experimented heavily with abstract and non-objective painting for a few years. He says the lessons he learned from that period of experimentation positively influenced his approach to representational painting.

Jim values painting outdoors and in the studio. You could say he has two studios – the great outdoors and his home studio. In this episode, Jim encourages us to embrace painting direct from life and to allow ourselves to be taught by nature. Rather than rigorously follow tedious formulas and rules of design, Jim encourages us to trust our intuition as an artist. Jim’s keen use of his artistic eye, mind, and heart have beautifully honed his way of seeing.
