A Prelude to Autumn......

'Red Scarf'..........oil on canvas panel...........8x10 inches (SOLD)



'Art Fair'............oil on panel.............9x12 inches

~~FALL GALLERY NIGHT~~

I was recently invited to participate in Galerie Kornye West’s ‘Sixth Annual Invitational' group show located in the Fort Worth Cultural District. Two of my paintings ‘Red Scarf’ and ‘Art Fair’ (pictured above) were submitted for the event which took place September 8th, 2007.

Galerie Kornye West is pleased to continue the tradition of their Fall Gallery Night invitational show. Galerie Kornye West takes this opportunity to exhibit new works by artists previously exhibited at the gallery alongside works by other American artists not viewed in the Fort Worth area before.

You just paint little miracles!

Jennifer, beautiful sense of daylight in the lower piece. I love the movement you've given the people too.. has a very animated snapshot effect about it (that ain't easy to me!!).
Lovely rich colour in the portrait of the woman at top. I like how you haven't gone too tight with the drawing.. you've captured a great gesture in it!

always impressed, Mike!

Jennifer McChristian said...

Checkin up on ya, again! Your work really does inspire me to reach farther and farther. Rene says it precisely with "miracles!"

Hi Jennifer
Just looked at your site and I absolutely love 11 feet 0 inches. Killer painting all the way.

Stefan Nuetzel said...

It is so hard to write you a comment without becoming too repetitive. In both paintings your drawing is so good and your sense of color also.
In the previous post "The Ferrier's Demonstration" is another stunning piece.
It is always a pleasure to see your paintings.

I love your style Jennifer. Your color light its fantastic and your sintesis too. it reminds me to Sargent or Sorolla.

Gracia said...
