Sarah
Evans
As an impressionist oil
painter, Sarah Evans paints to capture the color and pattern of what’s out there. Color is her mania…color affected by light;
and since gardens are where the color is, she loves to paint gardens and
“I paint exclusively in
oils because they are so gutsy, excitingly rich, with unctuous colors and they
provide great texture. The way I prefer
to work is to start a painting on location, en plein air as the French
Impressionists did, and paint as much as possible before the light, shadows and
colors change as the sun moves. Then I
finish back at the same spot, same light, or in my studio, working from memory,
small studies or photos taken at the very beginning of the painting.”
