Gregory Hennen
Last Light on Slaters Ridge Wyatt Mt - Blue Sky Green Mountain Landscape, 2017

2017

About the Item

The verdant green, mountainous landscape of Gregory Hennen's Virginia home are the subject for this rich, highly detailed contemporary landscape painting in oil on panel. Recording the changing light from the mountain ridge, Hennen captures its many shades of green, teal, blue and flecks of gold against a serene pale blue sky. Framed in a light, natural wood float frame. Signed, dated and titled on verso. Although the artist names his paintings after places, his complex compositions are usually composites of several location sketches and visual memory, not exact reproductions of a specific place. A naturalist as well as a life-long painter, Hennen has a close relationship with his environment. On his daily walks he fills sketchbooks chronicling the land, the effect of passing light and the seasonal changes. From these many field sketches, a final sketch is used as a guide for rendering a drawing with graphite onto the 3/4 inch wood panel for a painting. By building up tens of thousands of small brushstrokes, Hennen’s paintings are a complex collection of small marks gathered and made solid. The landscape paintings are at once astoundingly complex and perfectly calm. Hennen makes what can be described as ego-less paintings, perfectly crafted and stunningly beautiful; his paintings are a joy to experience.
