Paula Martino
Colors of Fall, Oil Painting

2019

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Paula Martin paints a perfectly crisp morning in early fall. The sun shines brightly, causing brilliant hues and shadows along a row of deciduous trees to reflect on the lake. Painted with paintbrushes and a palette knife, Paula intentionally scrapes back into the paint, allowing parts of the canvas to show. The rich and saturated colors create dramatic contrasts within the composition.


About the Artist
Artist Paula Martino paints impressionist scenes, especially of places with water. “They reflect the energy and emotions I feel when I see a compelling locale I visit,” says Paula. Using various tools, she applies thick layers of color with oil or acrylic paint and sometimes uses stencil work. With her palette knife technique, she unveils strands of lighter hues amidst her dominantly saturated palette, creating a semi-abstract element. Paula worked as a CPA for thirty-five years running her own tax practice while raising three children, with one having Down Syndrome. All the while pursuing art part-time in a studio her husband built for her in their basement. After retiring in 2020, she decided to pursue her art practice fully, studying in earnest with nationally recognized colorists, portrait artists, and landscape painters. “The experiences of caregiving and tax prep forced me to be very conscientious and organized with my time and efforts. I needed to be so completely organized for so long that it is a relief to be a little messy in my studio.”

  • Fall Trees, Oil Painting
    By Vahe Yeremyan
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    A sunny hillside in early autumn, the trees beginning to glow in rust and orange. Highlights of pink and blue in the distance add dimension and lead the eye back to the clear blue sky. Part of Vahe's long-running series of forest scenes. Following in the tradition of the French Impressionists, he returns to painting the same locations at different times of the day and year to capture the changing light and colors of the landscape.
