Pastel: GALLERY: Richard McKinley's Oil and Pastel Landscapes

7 Apr 2008 by American Artist

In the January 2007 issue of American Artist, we discuss how Richard McKinley guides a picture through a "dance," during which his medium exerts as much influence over the performance as he does. We present more of his oil and pastel landscapes in this online exclusive gallery.

I've always worked in pastel and oil as an either or proposition-I can't wait to read how the two work together. These landscapes are remarkable in impact.

Richard Your painting are beautiful, I love the way they capture the light and the sense of being there, like you can just simply take a step forward and you would find yourself in the picture. Thank you for sharing them with us. Gerry

I think all of these are brilliant, but the subtle shades of blue and light in "Snow Shadows" is wonderful. The piece is well named. Great work, a standard for which we should all strive

Hi Richard, I will be on the lookout for one of your Bucks County workshops. I have painted in watercolor for a number of years and for the last year or so have been doing pastels. I love your work and would love to take a workshop.

I am very happy for you. I don't paint a lot these days, but do enjoy the process, and I fondly remember the classes, sharing wonderful art with you and others.
