Beautiful Southwestern art from the Page Holland collection
Thomas Moran, the great western landscape painter, once said, “Art is nature viewed through a temperament.” A good landscape painting does not just re-create a scene, it selects and interprets the world around us in ways that convey the artist’s feelings and ideas about the landscape.
In great art, the artist always is present. It takes a great deal of skill to make a painting that convinces us that what we are seeing is “real.”
Page has the ability to compose a single compelling image out of the seamless confusion of nature. She is able to combine subject, color, composition, and technique in ways that conveys her objective to the viewer. This requires more than skill; it requires vision. Page's vision is captivating in this 22" x 28" oil painting of the amazing southwest landscape found in the Moab area.
