Description
The Original Oil Painting, “Shades of Venice, is sold. All Originals are viewed and sold showing you extra images at BaywoodGallery.com (copy/paste or type and open a new browser alongside this one).
A single window seen by the Artist from across a canal in Venice, Italy. Many houses have these awnings for the sun, but I wonder if they know the singular beauty each holds. I usually paint them much the way they actually appear.
Thank you for finding us on fineartamerica while searching for Art or a product it is printed on. Each premium artist is given a full website, on Pixels inside fineartamerica. It looks the same as the searching pages of fineartamerica but if you use the menu’s on fineartamerica you may not know that you have moved off of our landing page. We are Mary Grden and John Grden, and our website is inside Pixels with our own domain name of BaywoodArtGallery.com it is a complete link if typed or copied and you will see ALL our work printed on more than 25 products including seven different styles of wall-art. Some of Mary’s prints are very large, but can also be printed, very small. Use the menus on BaywoodArtGallery.com and you will stay on our site while searching our Art. Bookmark, or to help remember it, think of this acronym: “BAG.”
Mary’s Original Oil Paintings and John’s Prayers, Sketches and Drawings are shown and sold on our other website with almost the same name, BaywoodGallery.com (without the word, “Art”, in its name). There, you may want to keep two browsers open to toggle back and forth seeing prints on BaywoodArtGallery.com and more images of the same prints on BaywoodGallery.com (type or copy into a browser)
I am a self-taught Artist who began painting forty years ago in a form of Realism. “Oil painting is to me, much like writing is to an author, once the painting is complete many more than one can enjoy. Teaching yourself everything can be a long road, and what a journey to learn with God’s blessing every step of the way. The measure of success is the love or the passion you have for what you do and without it, an Artist can lose their way.” “I mix all my colors, rarely taking them straight from the tube, and create shadows for all elements like the sides of a buildings to oppose the front telling us if the sun is to rise or set. Perspective is enhanced with many color values as well, allowing us to see the realistic view of an open window, door, winding paths, steps, water and so much more. Composition can be difficult to perceive, and I am grateful that it came to me naturally.” I am self-taught in archival printing, website design and maintenance.

Mary Grden replied:
Hi Rick, thank you for the comment as usual you are so kind. I try to pain every day, but I have a very large inventory of prints that I render from archived files. Some of them are over 30 years old. I had illness slow me down for about the last 8 years, but I am getting my energy back.
