MOUNTAIN LANDSCAPE ...

Here's a link to Robert's original painting ...

... if you look at Roberts painting at original resolution, you'll see a painting constructed using pencil, pastel or a soft colored pencil and black pen, which could be Sanford's ultra fine permanent marker. This method of constructing a painting was one that I found natural using pencil, watercolor and then ink outline with the Sanford's pen.

... I downloaded Robert's scan of his original, took it to Virtual Painter, chose drawing, the used settings scale 100, material 0, rendering 12, coloration 100, deformtion 24 and focus 10. You see the results.

... Robert has a standard procedure for arriving at what he wishes to say about a given image, I would guess he begins with the pencil, moves on with his colored pencil and then provides his sharp contrast with the black pen. The results are a visualization of something or some place he wants to tell you about. His genre is expressionist-literalism and he is very successful at what he does.

... what I've done is splash the color around while taking it to its maximum saturation and then adding wildly to the line work with Virtual Painter software. This moves the genre to Fauve. Another name the Fauves once enjoyed was "wild beasts."

... Robert has most of his work in the public domain, which is good. I've never worried too much about anyone taking my stuff. If they can improve their lives with it, then bully for them. My joy is in the doing of it.

... Thanks Robert, for letting me play with your images. I've been playing with the Fauve concept all week, and I'm going to post a lot of the fun I've had. My favorite is a radical Fauve/Calligraphic/Minimalist process that you'll see a lot of in my future posts. This will go on until I get to yawning and the stumble onto something new to pursue.
