The ARTS Are Essential

in , , ,

As an artist, I believe that all “The Arts” create a vibrant, dynamic community. They connect us to one another. The Arts contribute significantly to our local economy as each artist, musician, actor is an entrepreneur who gives of themselves to enrich who we are and how we relate to one another.

Lennie Mullaney Gallery Talk

in , , ,

Gallery talk from a joint show with Ree Katrak at The Barn Gallery, Ogunquit ME in May 2019.

This video shows how I work from multiple plein air studies done on location in order to create a larger studio oil painting. Studies may include oil paintings, charcoal drawings, print making, and - yes- even photos. I like to return to the same location again and again, at differnt times of day or night, in different weather conditions, until I know my site inside out. All of the sketches and smaller paintings are then synthesized into a larger painting. The smaller ones are spontaneous and fresh. I try to paint no more than two hours outdoors each time as the light changes. Each plein piece teaches me something new.
