Artist Comments
"This painting depicts a typical sunny afternoon in Paris," shares artist Faye Vander Veer. "The long shadows coming in from the right draw you into the painting as your eyes move past the people seated at the tables and to the lady walking into the distance. You can almost feel the summer heat bouncing off the ground." Faye's work creates a warm and inviting scene through her loose painterly brushwork and vibrant and neutral earth tone palette.
About the Artist
Artist Faye Vander Veer seeks out moments with engaging narratives and captures them with an impressionist style. She describes herself as an observer of people living their day-to-day lives. Her goal is to offer viewers a look into her sensory memory while also prompting the beginning of a story. Faye always keeps her camera by her side, ready to capture reference material. "For me, each painting is an opportunity to explore my emotional reactions to the color and light I observe," says Faye. She enjoys being in her glass-walled studio surrounded by nature to inspire her creative process. When she is not putting paint on canvas, Faye can be found in nature, journaling or writing poetry. Her artwork has been showcased in both American Art Collector and Art of the West magazines.
