chincoteague and James McNeill Whistler

21 x21 pastel

"To say to the painter that Nature should be taken as she is, is to say to the player that he may sit on the piano. " James McNeill Whistler

Don't you love that quote?
I was happy that this painting sold at the show. I think I will take this concept to the studio next.

Lovely atmospherics, Loriann!

Last weekend I saw a truly wonderful PBS biography about Whistler and thought of you all through it. Unfortunately, I have no other details. Look for it online or on your affiliate station. You'll love it!
