My recent acquisition, a painting by Chris Long. More at chrislongpainter.com
I hung this precious beauty just above my monitor. So it's in my site line. You wouldn't even know this exquisite paint is only 3"x3"
He also sent along a sticker which I affixed to the cover of my traveling pochade box so I will always get a glimpse of before starting to plein air paint.
I know I sound like a groupie. I'm experiencing whats referred to as Stendhal Syndrome. A psychosomatic reaction to sublime beauty. I had to look up the definition, and yes this reaction does exist.
Have you ever been moved by a piece of art that can bring tears to your eyes? It's the emotional connection to what the artist portrays. I hope so.
