After Bierstadt WIP aka tribute to my artistic hero

Comments

I've put my back out picking up a paper tissue .... I sympathize. I like this, but then I like most of your work = and I don't know much (um: anything?) about Bierstadt - I must look him up.

Wonderful, so atmospheric. I looked up Bierstadt too, I see where the influence comes from.

I really like this. Your paintings seem to be getting lighter and brighter - a move towards the positive. My husband finds that riding a camel fixes his back, but i don't know where you would find them in lockdown.

You have some beautiful colours in this, Michael.

Hadn’t heard of Bierstadt and so I looked him up this definitely has a feel of his work. I love the overall glow you have created it makes a very atmospheric painting.

I love this guy. I have a weakness in my back though and it nearly went today thanks to my idolatry of the great Albert. I stooped to pick up a brush and wince wince groan!! Lol

About the Artist

Michael Hanrahan

I love art but it's very much up and down as I go about my day to day life as a painter and often I really struggle to paint therefore I fall out with it. You're only as good as your last painting as they say. My greatest love is music and I prefer to write classical music for orchestra than paint…
