American Heartland Landscape Paintings by Sharon France

 

I am a contemporary artist who specializes in rural American landscape paintings. I most often paint what I see around me in the quiet rural midwest. I love painting the peaceful landscapes of the old American Heartland. I have been working on a series of paintings that show my impression of these quiet landscapes. My work is in private collections throughout the U.S. as well as being sold to collectors in: Canada, England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Portugal, Iceland, Belgium, Italy, Japan and Australia.

I paint almost daily, usually six days a week. As you would likely guess, I love to paint! Since first seeing the easel in my kindergarten classroom, painting is what I have wanted to do! One of the hardest parts of majoring in art in college was having to first take the prerequisite drawing classes before I could enroll in the upper level studio painting courses. I paint what I see around me and from memories & photos of places that I have been. I hope that you will enjoying my original Heartland Art!

I have been influenced by aspects of impressionism, luminism, tonalism, as well as the abstract and realism. My paintings have been described as having an intriguing peacefulness, in their quiet simplicity.
