Inspired by Summer, Montclair (New Jersey Landscape) by George Inness

Collection of the Artist
I've always admired the ethereal nature of the Tonalists and in particular George Inness, so I thought I'd like to "paint like Inness." I didn't really try to copy Inness but to channel him and to learn from the master. I once attended a workshop from a Nebraska regional artist, Judy Greff, who told me if it isn't working just, "...spatter the 'heck' out of it." I like this corollary—just glaze the "heck out of it." I think that works better for me.

Hello Nick It was nice to paint with you last week. I like your website and blog. I have felt like I'm on a battleground too in painting! Mary Grow
