As you purchase a painting, we suggest you consider the following:

"Davis Farm" by Harold Frontz	Basic drawing and painting skills are essential. Regardless of painting style, the artist must be able to control the way the subject is represented. In this impressionist, somewhat abbreviated painting, the structures are both accurate and expressive, capturing the charm of a fall farm scene.
"All Aboard" by Leslie Frontz	A good painting has a light-and-dark pattern that integrates the colors and shapes into a cohesive whole. These light and dark tones are referred to as values. Simple, clearly-organized value patterns that make the most of a subject are typical of the paintings of master artists. Fine artists will tell you that while color gets all the credit, values do all the work. There is a lot of color and activity in this painting. But the train, foliage, vehicles and architecture form a strong, broad shape of similar values that provides a solid framework for the painting.
"Coastal Clouds" by Harold Frontz	The colors, shapes and textures that make up a painting should express the character of the subject and identify it as the center of interest. There should be a balance of bright and neutral colors and expressive textures. The strong colors and shape of the clouds leave no doubt that they are intended to be the focal point, and the way the color is applied beautifully suggests the prominence of coastal cloud formations.
"Paddington" by Leslie Frontz	The brushwork should appear confident, clean and direct. A minimum amount of brushwork dexterously applied can suggest an object without resorting to unnecessary detail. An accomplished artist can make the subject appear absolutely authentic while leaving much to our imagination. In this painting, a few well-placed brushstrokes convincingly portray the light, space and bustle of a busy train station.
