Leigh Palmer
Incident: Large Framed Vertical Luminist Style Oil Landscape Painting

2007

About the Item

Oil on canvas 60 x 48 inches This large vertical painting of an expansive pastoral landscape was created by artist Leigh Palmer a few years after his move to the Hudson River Valley. The image possesses a dramatic, sublime essence, juxtaposing the quiet fields and clouds with the distant "incident" on the horizon, where billowing smoke suggests impending disaster. Palmer's realistic technique captures the many textures of the natural world, from meticulously rendered blades of grass to the clouds that hover gently overhead. The painting floats in a thin, light-wood frame with a wire across the back for instant, professional-quality hanging. About the artist: In 1987, Leigh Palmer moved with his family from suburban Duxbury, Massachusetts, to Tivoli, New York, a quiet town on the Hudson River, north of New York City. His subject matter shifted to the sprawling hills and countryside of the Hudson Valley. “I wanted to respond to the new landscape I was seeing, to catch something of the feeling I had just before dark,” says Palmer. “I took a lot of photographs, but I was happier with the paintings I created from memory.”
