So you like art but say you don't know anything about it. This blog is for you.
You only have to know one thing, do you like what you see? If so, then that is all you really have to know to enjoy art. What is good art to one person isn't necessarily what is good art to the next – otherwise all the artists would find out what "art is" and would be doing the same thing and the same painting year after year. And it's because they are not doing the same thing, that makes art and ones taste for a painting very subjective.
You don't have to be part of the wine and cheese crowd that visits galleries to enjoy art or even be a gallery hopper to talk about it. In my opinion, that crowd does a disservice to art by intimidating others who can't look at an artist work and talk in the terms they use.
Today's painting is simple. It's a response I had to the half mile hike into the woods after following the tracks 4x4 off roaders made illegally into the woods in the Mississenwa Reservoir. This 6x8 inch oil on masonite is a quick study of the end of the trail where the tracks when up a hil and curved to end at a fallen tree just out of sight of this view.
