I just came back from a workshop in Vermont with my very favorite artist --- Stanley Bielen! The above is one of several paintings completed at the workshop. It was a great experience. Mr. Bielen is a generous teacher and all around nice guy. Below is a series of images from one of his demos.
Thanks for sharing. I've been a fan of Stanley Bielen for a long time. And I've been surreptitiously enjoying your work for a while as well.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the top image I thought it was in the style of Bielen so imagine my pleasure to open up and see the rest. What a treat.
ReplyDeleteYou did great - beyond great and cannot wait to see more of your new work.
Thanks for sharing his demo, Susan
Lucky you to take workshop with Stanley Bielen. His wok is fantastic, saw it a few years ago in a gallery. Thank you for sharing his demo pictures. And, as always I really like your painting too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting! Loved looking at the enlarged version and your wonderful paint handling. Thanks also for including Bielen's progress demos.
ReplyDeleteLove your work. How nice to have taken a workshop with Stanley Bielen. The demo was interesting and informative. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy seeing your painting style, and all styles that leave something for the eyes to finish. Thanks for including Mr. Bielen's process; it's fun to see when you can't be there in person.
ReplyDeleteLovely painting and demo by artist, Stanley Bielen. You have a lovely style and I am enjoying your blog.
ReplyDeletestanley is a great painter thanks for this... does he have any books published on his methods ?
ReplyDeleteHi Paul, no books; just the yearly workshop at Art New England.
