John Singer Sargent rose to fame for his finely rendered oil portraits. At his peak, he was one of the most sought after artists for portrait commissions. But, did you know he was also a remarkable watercolorist? Watercolors brought out a different side to Sargent's work. His meticulous oil portraits feature Notan… muted colors, dark and imposing backgrounds, bright lights, and all on finely rendered subjects. However, his watercolors are bright, colorful, loose and impressionist. I imagine that after slaving away over his portrait commissions for important (and probably also needy) people, some of the joy may have been taken out of painting for him. I also imagine his watercolor work probably felt more like a hobby…a refreshing break. JSS ended up creating more than 2,000 watercolors during his illustrious career. And I enjoy studying every one. We will be following the John Singer Sargent approach to watercolor in my upcoming workshop scheduled for November 6 at the Little House at Sunnybrook Farm near Columbia, TN.

Getting the work together for my next show called FACING TRUTH at Gallery 14 in Vero Beach which opens Nov 5th from 5 to 8 pm. And I have my trusty helper who says the pet portraits are staying home.

Where Art Happens: Outside the Studio “If you are committed to creating, it is up to you to find a way. It is up to you to make it happen. Make art where you are.” - Emily Lynn Downey @emilylynndowney Check out Emily’s blog post this morning. I love what she says! While I am so crazy grateful for my studio upstairs, creating is mobile! Take it with you! Heather and I just traveled to Nashville for a fabulous workshop which filled me back up. I gave myself permission to paint my own pets, make gifts not work to sell, work in oils which I don’t do very often and absorb a workshop as a student which always makes me a better teacher. I love that Emily is creating at her son’s baseball games! Creating in unexpected places activates the magic in the muggle world. It inspires others. Be the creative that you want to see in the world! https://christinepeloquin.com/blog/2021/10/27/where-art-happens-outside-the-studio #christinepeloquin #inherstudio https://www.instagram.com/p/CViTrP-L9YO/?utm_medium=tumblr

Coffee and collaboration with the fabulous boss babes of Art & Soul. These artists, friends, and cheerleaders remind me the sky is the limit. We can have it all… career, family, friends, support, peace, joy, fun. Even when we get frustrated with the details of being solo entrepreneur artists, it’s good to know these ladies are there to remind me it’s all about serving others and having fun along the way. #makingithappen #artrepreneur #hardwork #nothingluckyaboutit #inherstudio @rrbarber62 @bnatural35 @sonjalyndicksonrine @thefaintinggoatcoffee #springhilltn (at The Fainting Goat Coffee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTKPz3irDKE/?utm_medium=tumblr
