Beginning A Large Painting 3ft by 5ft

A few weeks ago a young couple came into the Stagecoach Gallery and were inquiring on commissioning a large painting.

Huge smiles from me, because a ‘young’ couple
Young! ... are interested in original painted work.

Do you have information for me about what you would like painted?  No.
Hmmmm
Well no is pretty broad, let’s break this down.

Our young lady has definite thoughts, a LOT different from our young fella.
Let the melding begin.

From our back and forth conversation and image referencing I concluded, a limited bold but muted, hazy palette.
Heavy on grey and white with touches of black.
For our young lady as her bold personality speaks she desires bold images, while our young man seeks calm.

Our first agreement is nature inspired.

Keeping with this bold personality feel, we consider abstract.
After image referencing, this becomes the preferred of our young man, this style brings him peace.
This style with strong boldness brings our young lady the huge personality she is seeking for her wall.

Our conclusion:  a nature inspired abstract!

We live with amazing venues of bold nature.
I love the inspiration from our states (South Dakota),  Black Hills.
Seems that so do they.

Black Hills Abstract coming to our future.

Stay tuned!
