Painting of the Day, November 20, 2011

By Donna Poulton

“I am still convinced that a literal naturalistic painting can still satisfy the passions of an intellectual mind.”  Clyde Aspevig

Montana artist, Clyde Aspevig was first introduced to painting when bedridden from a horse-riding accident.  He lists John Singer Sargent, Anders Zorn, and Winslow Homer as artist he studies and aspires to.  His large-scale work Winter Glow is a luminescent example of the simplicity, pattern and pulse he finds in nature.
