BASEBALL & PITCHERS MIT 8"x10" (SOLD!)

PURCHASED BY COLLECTOR FROM POUND RIDGE, NY

This is one of my favorite paintings; it contains formal elements that are akin to what I find so engaging about 19th century painterly naturalism. I'd also like to add that the "A Painting A Day" international art movement is liberating both artists and collectors alike. I truly enjoy making paintings and feeling unencumbered by over-intellectualism. On several levels one can equate Marcel Duchamp's subversive introduction of Dadaism to the art world to the "A Painting A Day" movement in the sense that one can work in a liberated fashion, and not feel compelled to over-think the process of art making. I see possiblilities for making art every where I turn; subjects present themselves to me.

Greetings,
If you don't have a blogger account, and rather not set one up, just leave a comment without a name. I'm interested in hearing what you think about the work, in addition to the international sustainable movement.
Thanks,
Hall Groat II, American Artist
