American Landscape Art by Sharon France

 

I am a contemporary landscape artist who specializes in rural American landscape paintings. I paint what I see around me on a quiet midwestern farmstead. I love painting the heartland and most often works in acrylic paint for my peaceful landscapes. I often paint scenes of old historical Americana, views of old barns, farms, houses, cabins, hazy days & big blue skies. I have been working on a series of paintings that show my unique impression, of these calm and quiet landscapes of the United States. As I progress as a painter, I have become increasingly interested in the mood and feeling that my paintings give.

About the Artist

 

The contemporary modern landscape paintings on this page are from several series that I have been working on. 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.
