About the Item

Sunset at Grand Teton National Park - Plein Aire Landscape in Oil on Board Vibrant plein aire landscape by Thomas Bradshaw (American, b. 1972). This landscape was complete on site, most likely at Grand Teton National Park. The viewer is at the edge of a stream, looking across it to a valley with mixed sunlight and shadows. At the far end of the valley, rows of mountains rise dramatically to a pale blue sky. The vibrant magenta under layer of this piece shows though in many places, giving the work a sunset glow. Signed "Bradshaw" in the lower right corner Artist's card affixed to verso. No frame. Panel size: 8"H x 10"W Richmond, Virginia based Plein air artist, Thomas Bradshaw (American, b. 1972), has been honing his painting skills since he was a small child watching his grandmother create still life paintings in her basement studio. After graduating from the Art Institute of Atlanta with a degree in Graphic Design, he moved west to Jackson Hole, Wy where his evolution into a Plein air artist began to take shape. Having always loved the outdoors, Thomas began to paint in and around Jackson Hole setting up his easel to capture the breathtaking western landscapes. He soon realized it was the perfect marriage of his two passions, painting and being in nature. “Jackson Hole was a place where I could immerse myself in the style of art that has always been my first love”. Thomas often says “ I have always loved seeing a painterly painted painting”. His loose painterly style allows him to imply detail without overstating it. Using brushwork and a palette knife to create a textural impression which draws the viewer in for a closer look. Utilizing a limited palette, Thomas is able to create shimmering light through temperature and value and bring to life the way in which it illuminates the scene as a single moment in time. Painting Plein air forces the artist to recognize that light is the heart of any painting and that light is the quality that inspires the dynamic nature of the landscape. Thomas is currently teaching a Master Class in Richmond and he is enjoying the pleasures and challenges of painting, teaching and spending time with his family.
