It reminds me of the depression era of life in the 1930s.

I was using crutches to get around and I was avoiding using the stairs to go out. I did look forward to sitting out here to draw, paint and do some reading. The fire escape was my refuge. The flowers, herbs and vegetables in the planters, were basically finished for the season, but some decorations and ornaments still remained. The reflecting sunset sparked my interest and I decided I would expand the perspective give it a wide, comfortable feel. This painting was my last studio painting in 2022.</div></div></span></span></div></div></div></div>Stephen D'Amatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06129368930149380976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135160147853456375.post-37986387885832148052022-11-13T19:07:00.008-05:002023-05-11T22:19:50.064-04:00"Blue Skies Ahead"<p></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj15am-Q4nmD0G_URR1zglnCQ397tyCaBx5y8SP81_YXHgYheOkQ4TRn61xn8OKQaUpfh1WmEDccv5U9-dlR5DHaGavAqiw_hGBkvYgZdP3q9JdvGYt8ZaJ6dL6xGp7ULMXWkfgWOh4N3Ze4H0lg2xUKfYFS-WSjaRbGEq1795q5xHgqjYwmNQW8n7D/s2433/Blue%20Skies%20Ahead.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2433" data-original-width="1736" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj15am-Q4nmD0G_URR1zglnCQ397tyCaBx5y8SP81_YXHgYheOkQ4TRn61xn8OKQaUpfh1WmEDccv5U9-dlR5DHaGavAqiw_hGBkvYgZdP3q9JdvGYt8ZaJ6dL6xGp7ULMXWkfgWOh4N3Ze4H0lg2xUKfYFS-WSjaRbGEq1795q5xHgqjYwmNQW8n7D/w456-h640/Blue%20Skies%20Ahead.jpg" width="456" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto"> <b>"Blue Skies Ahead"</b> </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto">watercolor </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto"> 14" x 19" </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto"><br /> 300 lb.

This backview, of the red house on the corner, really got my attention as the sun was setting. We’ve had some extremely hot weather for a few weeks straight, so painting a snow scene from last winter was refreshing. This home has continues to inspire me.</span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span></div></div></span></div></div></div></div>Stephen D'Amatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06129368930149380976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135160147853456375.post-1200047478026752352022-07-24T16:15:00.004-04:002022-11-14T13:43:24.492-05:00“American Gothic 2 - Cranford 2022”<p> </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoJS2IdiLgMEvp4ykITg3sr4l9cp5h5FukOp190nFyEO2Ge2LsUnjYaNDo9kLFwoblreFnOOJdVKQkCLCG8MMNdDzKCVo0KKZxscEWhAJJAQQ8hm3cR9hYpWBa3CLwSntVN-PerPSxleVuUuMxNBPlHL5kVw9tD3xYW0Ym0mHmAeVsutJGDCkJW1wu/s3282/American%20Gothic%202-Cranford.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2343" data-original-width="3282" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoJS2IdiLgMEvp4ykITg3sr4l9cp5h5FukOp190nFyEO2Ge2LsUnjYaNDo9kLFwoblreFnOOJdVKQkCLCG8MMNdDzKCVo0KKZxscEWhAJJAQQ8hm3cR9hYpWBa3CLwSntVN-PerPSxleVuUuMxNBPlHL5kVw9tD3xYW0Ym0mHmAeVsutJGDCkJW1wu/w640-h456/American%20Gothic%202-Cranford.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh a8c37x1j fe6kdd0r mau55g9w c8b282yb keod5gw0 nxhoafnm aigsh9s9 d3f4x2em iv3no6db jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id hzawbc8m" dir="auto">“American Gothic 2 - Cranford 2022”</span></span></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh a8c37x1j fe6kdd0r mau55g9w c8b282yb keod5gw0 nxhoafnm aigsh9s9 d3f4x2em iv3no6db jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id hzawbc8m" dir="auto">Watercolor on 300 lb.

I know that a neighbor of mine had grown up in this home, many years ago. I also love the layout of this side view and during the twilight. It had a magical glow that I knew I wanted to express in my painting. The architecture is also very unique, like many of the homes in my neighborhood. Many do not fit any type of development style. The winter, bare trees gave it the haunting effect, that I wanted to accentuate.<br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>Stephen D'Amatohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06129368930149380976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135160147853456375.post-742196328700567942022-03-12T21:16:00.007-05:002022-07-16T17:37:01.726-04:00"Horror"<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRJZDWPPxAdDa4Xg7guEQaL6c7lAOjXvg1a3-uqLvdhqMCs940Ulm4M51WeS8Jxyk9haH6KPPxu8vsacyDppfNx18b3vh1mUs4BhAweYa4imqwt0a_hxH4OslJybO6ZHWaG4aKueYM1rjAuPOma0lS4JEFSIoX5MxAlfUdSqqlOLyBva25a6tnt8Xu/s740/BE700C38-3110-4B50-A9F2-7C080EA5855C.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="482" data-original-width="740" height="416" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRJZDWPPxAdDa4Xg7guEQaL6c7lAOjXvg1a3-uqLvdhqMCs940Ulm4M51WeS8Jxyk9haH6KPPxu8vsacyDppfNx18b3vh1mUs4BhAweYa4imqwt0a_hxH4OslJybO6ZHWaG4aKueYM1rjAuPOma0lS4JEFSIoX5MxAlfUdSqqlOLyBva25a6tnt8Xu/w640-h416/BE700C38-3110-4B50-A9F2-7C080EA5855C.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">"Horror", 2005, watercolor, 30" x 22" $700.00 (unframed)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>I painted this watercolor in 2005, after the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami happened.
