An idea I once had for a children's book.

I saw colors and textures, brightly lit by the warm sun...

]]> Paths Of Light by Michael Gillespie Thu, 03 Nov 2011 23:46:52 GMT http://fineartamerica.com/featured/paths-of-light-michael-gillespie.html

An original plein air painting, I had to work fast to stay ahead of the changing light. Minimal touch-up in the studio. On canvas board ready to frame.

]]> Checkerboard Theater by Michael Gillespie Sat, 24 Sep 2011 23:23:57 GMT http://fineartamerica.com/featured/checkerboard-theater-michael-gillespie.html

Found this empty building in San Angelo, Texas. Looks like it hasn't been opened in decades, more dilapidated than the painting makes it look. Part of my series of "small town downtowns".

]]> Don't Bother Me by Michael Gillespie Tue, 13 Sep 2011 00:00:14 GMT http://fineartamerica.com/featured/dont-bother-me-michael-gillespie.html

My inspiration (other than the photo of my son) was the pastel figurative work of Mary Cassatt.

]]> Pig Stand by Michael Gillespie Thu, 28 Jul 2011 13:56:40 GMT http://fineartamerica.com/featured/pig-stand-michael-gillespie.html

My parents met at a different Pig Stand in San Antonio in 1934. He was a cook and she was a car hop.

I don't know why I would want to paint a small town scene like this, maybe there's something about the repetition of verticals, along the warmth of the brick against the cool of the sky. Someone made the place more attractive with blue paint, too.
