Snow Canyon Paintings

 Artwork, Snow Canyon, UT

I went to St. George UT, for a pastel workshop. It was 5 days and we painted Plain Air in pastel.
It was great fun. Here is what I painted, and a little slide show of the workshop.

I gave the first painting to a donation, unfortunately for me I don't know who owns it now. When Troy Eden Medical Clinic closed, I went and picked up my painting there. I had almost forgotten that these wonderful pastels were hanging there.

I am so delighted to have them back. I have the perfect place in my home for them. I don't think I will be donating any of these now.

Interview with an Artist

Jean Hart

 

 This is the last interview for this series.

"Making of an Artist"





Now that my paintings have been delivered to the  Museum for the

 Elements art exhibit.

Aug - Oct 2013

Northeastern Nevada Museum,

Elko, NV

I have been asked a few more questions. So, I will do my best to answer those questions here.

 

We have talked about what inspires me. Where I get my ideas from. What has attracted me to the style of painting I do.

What's next for Jean Hart Artwork?

Yes, that's the question I'm being asked.

Even before I have had the reception for this newest show!

Well, here it is.

There is a certain, let down, if you will, after the completions of a large body of work.

I've been working on the Element show for the last 8 months.

I thought I would take some time off. ....NO just kidding....

 

Exhibition are only part of what Jean Hart Artwork does.

I have just refreshed  my card racks with new note cards, key chains, magnets, to keep everything new and exiting.

Over the years I have learned about marketing and advertisement. I would like to expand

 Jean Hart Artworks to be an ART Agency for new and emerging artist.

 

Jean Hart Artwork, has also taken on a new Photographer, Kerry Hart.

 I will be marketing his photos of amazing landscapes of Nevada.

 

For me personally as an artist. I will continue to paint each day. Write my blog  http://jeanhartartists.blogspot.com/

on Art History, spot light new emerging artists,

critique artwork on ArtCanyon Art Galley, where I am an administrator.

This Fall I plan on making a new book with my artwork.

I will also be starting a new BOOK Club Blog called,

"Invisible Women" coming this fall.

People ask me why I paint???

WHY DO I PAINT?????

 

People ask me why I paint???

 I think it's a silly question, but, they look so serious when they ask me.

I think it's because as a child I was very shy. Words would not come to me. I think in a different life I expressed myself more clearly and concise.  Now as an adult words are flying all around me and my paintings help to express them in a more flowing and comprehensive way.

I paint because it's fun. Because it makes me feeling free. I paint my life mostly. If you are in my life, and some how have made an impression on me, there's a good chance that you will find yourself in one of my paintings. Of course, I will never tell.

I love to hear how people relate to my paintings. What they see, what they feel.

I paint with my soul of curiosity. I paint what I like and I put words to the painting that inspire me.

I hope people like what I do, enjoy the artwork and connect to it.

But if not, well, that's fine too. My job is simply to create. Not judge it, change it to fit someone else ideal of art or impress you.

The artwork is mine to share with you.

Paint your toes, your house, your face. Paint pictures of your family and your life.

 Just create and express yourself. That's what I do.

Painting is part of my healing. It was there when nothing else was. It gave me a way to express my pain, and my love, and my life.

I paint everyday. I read about art everyday. I look at artwork everyday.

Art is my life, I am art.

Are you feeling inside the circle, or do you hang outside the circle?

 

Blue Monday

Blue Monday, circles, by artist

Jean Hart

 

Circles, awe, what can I say about circles?

Circles are everywhere, mostly circles are about cycles. No ending, no beginning......

But not when you paint them. There is a beginning, and hopefully the ending,  if your lucky will match up with the beginning again.

Are you feeling inside the circle, or do you hang outside the circle?

My circle, your circle, inside the circle of trust, circle of friends....it goes on, on, and on....

Beware of running around inside the circle's, because a circle once inside can trap you in and hold you there.

I have painted a lot of circles. When I went through a period of mandala paintings. All the mandala paintings are circles.

Circles will make you crazy, but Mondays will make you manic.
