FALL LAMBS -- CHESTER COUNTY, PA

I've been playing around with this painting for a long time. Going back and forth with the lighting and trees. I started on it again last night with the intent to have it finished, so that I could include it in my upcoming show---see my AW blog or website (www.jeaniechadwick.com) for information--I don't know about you, but when I get into that painting zone, late at night, without interruptions, I become wide awake, focused and alert. I've been this way all of my life. Anyway, it was finished about 3am. Usually I lose all sense of time and don't snap out of it until I hear the traffic starting up again outside. "Fall Lambs--Chester County, PA", 14"x11", oil on deep, gallery-wrapped canvas,framed. YOU MADE THIS #7 FOR THE DAY (11/18/07)IN FINE ART-THANK YOU! SOLD

This painting has such grace and charm! A lovely job.... I have painted a few at night too... usually I'm too tired, but you are so right: no disturbances, easy to get into "the zone",creativity flourishes!

bit red but nice idea

Artist Reply: thanx Alice. It's not quite so red in person....could be the digital photo quality. I appreciate your input and time. Blessings.

Wonderful piece of work, I especially like the color and shading transition in the background trees and grass. Great job!

Artist Reply: Thanx very much John. I always appreciate your input. Blessings.

Beautiful pastoral scene. Incidentally I'm another nighttime painter... No one will disturb, no telephone will ring and all around the atmosphere feels empty of everything except what one is concentrating on. I do paint in the day time too but sometimes nighttime is so very special.. Anyway this painting of yours is lovely.

Artist Reply: thanx for taking the time to look and comment Ann. You know, I have found that many artists have that same internal clock. Even if they do work at another job, especially a "day job", it's a struggle for them. Blessings, Jeanie

Brilliant work on this. Such lovely golden hues and a marvelous bucolic scene. Really excellent work. But sweetie, I told you about those all nighters like I do. Great painting and best of luck on this upcoming show. Sell out. Michael
