Six New Original Oil Paintings for Spring!

 Six NEW original oil paintings, created for my 2013 Collection is debuting at the Greenberg Fine Art Gallery!


"At The Met Series - In Love With Georgia"
Original oil on Senso Linen
"Santa Fe Series - Santa Fe Mountain - New Years Eve"
Original oil on Belgian Linen

I am pleased to announce I am now being represented by:

 Greenberg Fine Art Gallery 

in Santa Fe, New Mexico


Greenberg Fine Art Gallery is owned and operated by Mark Greenberg whose personal vision for quality fine art is elegantly represented in this prestigious gallery. Located on beautiful Canyon Road in Santa Fe, the gallery hosts multiple rooms filled with a striking blend of classical and contemporary paintings and sculptures. 



The 2013 Collection includes:


At The Met Series




My “At The Met Series” derived from countless visits to the Metropolitan Museum of  Fine Arts in New York.  It was fascinating watching the stance people don as they viewed the masterpieces.  I decided I had to paint these amazing moments.  The first edition of the “At The Met Series” had 4 paintings exhibited in six National Juried shows with several awards and  sold out.   Each piece resonates with my new fresh palette and creative textures rendered with the signature  brushstrokes indicative of my impressionist style.





Santa Fe Series



My “Santa Fe Series” is  brand new to my repetroire, inspired by a recent visit to New Mexico.  No matter the season, the light in Santa Fe is like no other.  The adobe buildings and sidewalks glow with a warm rose and yellow hue.  I purchased a special tube of oil paint, Gamblin copper, for this series, which when mixed with titanium white and naples yellow, with a touch of coral red, creates the beautiful hue I wanted to capture.



See the entire collection!

FABULOUS BREAKING NEWS! From Artist September McGee



GREAT NEWS!

I was just elected a Signature Member of the Pastel Society of America (PSA)! The Pastel Society of America is the oldest and largest Pastel Society in America.  Founded in 1972, this is a distinguished society housed at the National Arts Club on 15 Gramercy Park South, New York. This honor grants me the distinction of using the initials PSA after my signature on my paintings and in all my correspondence.


This makes my third Signature Member status - Pastel Society of the West Coast (PSWC) and The Connecticut Pastel Society (CPS)!   I also have an Elected Member honor with the Allied Artists of America, NY.  So I will forgo the initials of all my Signature Honors as my signature would be way too long!

These are some of the images I used for the jury towards this honored status.

WITH GRATITUDE FOR ALL OUR VETERANS

Original oil on linen 20" x 16"
First Sergeant Harvey E. Walden III

This is a commissioned painting I did several years ago of 
First Sergeant Harvey E. Walden III.  I wanted to use this image again to represent and honor all who have served in our armed forces. 

My deepest and most heartfelt thanks goes out to all  who have served and sacrificed for our country.  Your service to America is beyond measure.  

Have a wonderful Veterans' Day.

 Blessings,

September McGee

BIRTHDAY WISHES AND BRAND NEW IDEAS.

ONE OF MY BIRTHDAY WISHES THIS YEAR  IS TO DO THINGS I HAVE NEVER DONE!

It's been many years since I have painted an oil on gold leaf.  My plan was to do another nude similar to the one I painted years ago.  This piece not only sold right away it remains my top selling nude   print today. 

I AM PROUD TO PRESENT 

         MY NEW RAINY DAY SERIES 

                      ON GOLD LEAF  

                            ...AND.... 

                       SILVER LEAF

Light, as you know, is an integral component of painting, particularly, impressionistic painting.  How the light falls across the image and interplays throughout the piece creates an ambience for the viewer to enjoy as they uncover the artist's message. 


One of the fun things about painting on gold and silver leaf is the contrast created between the two elements...and the painting can change, markedly, just by moving the light upon which it is viewed.

IT'S NEW - IT'S UNIQUE - IT'S FUN!

See from the photographs of each of these oils how the painting changes just by my moving the light when I photographed them.  Almost like the morning to the dusk, these paintings have their unique glow no matter what time of day!


"Rainy Day on Gold Leaf #1"
oil on gold leaf panel, 12" x 9"




                                                      "Rainy Day on Silver Leaf #l"
                                                            oil on silver leaf, 10" x 8"


Hope you enjoy my new fun series.  Let me know!




THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR AND THE BEST
IS YET TO COME!
BLESSINGS,


                                              September
