Marshall Noice
"Mood Indigo" Contemporary Abstract Landscape Framed Oil on Canvas Painting

About the Item

"Mood Indigo" is a framed oil on canvas painting by Marshall Noice, depicting hazy dark blue trees amid an indigo and fuchsia background. The colors suggest a darker and more evening time mood than most of Noice's pastel and bright colored paintings. This piece is finished in a silver floater frame with subtle beveling and a dark woodgrain effect along the frame's sides and interior. Pricing includes the pictured frame. Unframed dimensions are 48 x 36 inches. About the artist: Marshall Noice passionately admires western landscapes, and conveys that love through vibrant colors that illuminate his compositions. Residents of New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Noice’s home state of Montana may relate to the magnificent landscape he’s portraying in his luscious works. While painting is a natural form of expression for Noice, he began his artistic career as a photographer. In fact, he earned his living taking pictures for 23 years. Some of the work was figurative, but most of it was landscape photography. During the summer of 1977 he had the extreme privilege of being Ansel Adams’ workshop assistant, an experience that profoundly affected his life. It happened at an auspicious time when Noice was just getting into photography. “I learned how to see light from Ansel Adams,” he explains. “Adams was a great teacher. I really learned how to recognize landscapes through photography. I feel that my experience in photography has helped me to develop a heightened sensibility toward landscapes.” Throughout the two decades Noice worked as a photographer, he painted landscapes. Painting was done for the sheer enjoyment of it and not for the thought of future sales. When a new work was completed, he put it into a storage shed with his growing collection. During the 1990’s Noice noticed himself wishing he could move trees in some of his photos or manipulate the images in some other way, which was a strong and obvious sign that he craved and needed to express more individuality through his artistic work. “I knew I would be ready to paint landscapes when I retired from photography,” he says. “But the shift happened more suddenly than I anticipated.” After years of viewing the landscape through black and white photos, Noice’s spirit longed to express the beautiful environment in which he lived with as much color as possible. Black and white gave way to gold, red, azure, purple, and kelly green. "My paintings are made in response to things I see in the natural world. They capture a place at a particular time. And they capture a moment in my sensibility. My overriding goal as a painter is to create a work, an artifact if you will, that resonates with the spirit of the landscape that inspired me to begin painting." - Artist Marshall Noice

    "My life as a painter began in the late 1950s when abstraction was “The only game in town”. I followed and progressed through gesture, organic and finally, geometric non-objective painting. The radical move for me was to discover that the real world of landscape lurked behind all that past work. My childhood in the mountains of Pennsylvania pervaded my “way of seeing” and I wanted to investigate and celebrate the infinite variety of tone, color and composition that I found around me. Sky, the structure of trees, mist and water appeared to fill a hunger to look again and again. There was mystery and danger lurking behind the beauty, and my aim was to try to avoid the cliché and explore the infinite structure of the visual landscape. Now I use my camera as a sketchbook and search for images that seem to offer odd structure and “mystery”. I shoot multiple points of view, cull, crop, and mostly discard. The surviving photographs become the catalyst for the paintings and the process is always a mediation between memory and the small image pinned to my easel...
