Southland
While organizing my stack of unframed watercolors, I came across this colorful piece that I did as an experimental attempt at abstracted landscape. I used this as a background for a card that had print on the top. I did a few other pieces in this…

The Cracker Barrel
This is the store in our neighborhood of Shark River Hills on the Jersey Shore, that I grew up with. Bought my first pack of cigarettes for my mom here... one pack for her at 25 cents and another for me. I can't believe they sold them to a 10 year…

Observation/Planning/Execuition
I have decided to write about the process of making art. It will be my process derived from a lifetime as a painter. I am not sure yet what form this writing will take, but I have been thinking about it for too long and must do something tangible so I can get on with my life.I want to talk about the three stages of making art...the Observation, Planning, and Execution of the piece. I am putting this out here now to get some feedback from others on this topic. I feel like I have something to say…See More

Ann Brennan said… Hi Donald, thanks for your welcome message. We have never met, I was joined the Plein Air website but felt I wasnt doing enough outside work so felt I was cheating to be putting my work up on it. so this website suits me better as i do more studio work, Its a great site and very easy to upload work, Looking forward to getting more pics up and getting involved more.

Hi Don,
Think I messed up again with the photos. Some how managed to get one correct, then next 3 ended up on same page. Do not know how to fix them.
Thanks Judy

Ronald L Bigony said… Very proud to be friends with Don Maier. Don I have seen a lot of artist from all over the world, and I must say your vision in paint is just the best I have ever seen. I love the simplifications and your own set of symbols and the colors are exciting to look at.. I would love to hear more about your paints, and technique. Do you ever mask out, use gouache, , HOw do you do what you do ???? Deo a dvd of start to finish on about 5 of those southwest paintings and you will have a buyer.

Don- Thanks for the critique on Feeding the Birds. I was a little uneasy about all that empty space.
