VIEWS FROM THE PAST - SMALL TO BIG - DIX BAINES COLORADO LANDSCAPE ARTIST

10/31/2016

Every painting is like a puzzle to be solved, with challenges and problems to be worked through. Often starting small is a way to work through some of the issues, before moving onto a larger canvas. Over the years Dix Baines has painted a number of 5x7 miniatures both to preview images for possible larger paintings and to sell at one of our two annual 5x7 auctions. The second of the auctions, "Notes and Brushstrokes," is always held the second Saturday of November and this year's event will be in two weeks on Saturday, November 12th. Typically, a dozen unframed, original oil paintings are offered, with beginning bids of $150. As they come off the easel, they are posted on the Studio Auctions page on this website and are opened for bidding. Here is a look back at some of the miniatures that turned into larger original oil paintings. -Kathlyn Gogarty-Baines

Recognize that participants may progress at varying speeds. Some may grasp concepts quickly, while others may need more time. To accommodate different learning paces, offer on demand access to training materials.

“I am drawn to the things which speak to the senses; the light and atmosphere of landscapes, the impressions of a moment or place, and the spirit of nature and of people. It is important to me to strive as an artist to paint a variety of subjects and to paint each equally well. I paint often on location, or from life. Whether researching sporting life images, landscapes, or places from abroad, painting directly from the subject is essential to capturing the impression of what I see.” -DIX BAINES
