Faux Painting: Baltimore Art Star http://baltimoreartstar.com Mon, 01 Mar 2010 12:27:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 en hourly 1 “Artstar 1″ featured on this blog http://baltimoreartstar.com/2010/03/artstar-1-featured-on-this-blog/ http://baltimoreartstar.com/2010/03/artstar-1-featured-on-this-blog/#comments Mon, 01 Mar 2010 12:22:56 +0000 The Artstar http://baltimoreartstar.com/?p=934 http://mystyleanddecor.blogspot.com/
I just had the pleasant experience of taking a trip to North Carolina where some old clients and dear friends purchased several of my paintings…See “ARTSTAR 1″ featured in the master bedroom of this sharply designed house…these guys are amazing btw they have 3 off site storage units full of cutting edge furnishings and they actually “rotate stock” and dress different rooms in their house seasonally. Neither work “in the trade”, but they should. Needless to say Its a huge honor to have my work as a staple element in such a thoughtfully considered environment. Enjoy!

I did this job while working with the original Twin Diamond Studios back in
2000 and recently had a chance to work for the same clients again, this time for myself…I was so happy to see this timeless classic was still looking fresh in this hip and cozy space…

South Carolina Sunset

this painting was made on commission for a generous and incredibly cool couple in Federal Hill inspired by a panoramic photograph taken of their land in South Carolina…It was the first time I painted from a photo and found the job rather inspiring…It gave me purpose and direction and nature created the palette…I will do more collaborative work in the future rest assured!

Can you believe it? Im almost perfectly proud of this project except for the ridge where the color appears to leave a “lap line”…its in fact a rise where the concrete is higher than the wood…believe me I tried and tried to sneak up on it and make it disappear.
