Art * Painting With Multidisciplinary Artist Phoebe Legere


FROM PHOEBE @Legere 's POSTS ON X:



Never underestimate the power of COLOR on the human retina. 

Painting: The Invisible Hand_oil_2022_Phoebe Legere












May you be filled with loving kindness...May you live with ease and confidence. May you be calm and at ease. May you accept yourself just as you are. May you be patient and open. May you feel joy and eagerness for life!!

Oil Painting by Phoebe Legere







There is just something magic about the Town of Medfield, Massachusetts. Here I am doing a plein air (outdoor) painting by the Charles River.


The big question is, do I have time to get in a little fly fishing in Canada before I leave for Italy?

Study for "They Are Coming Back"












Two paintings, same day, by me, Phoebe Legere. Visual Art is made from the dance of photons on our retinas--wiggling and jiggling and dancing--it is all an Illusion. 

Reality is a hallucination created by our limited senses and brain.

Says Artist Phoebe Legere:


“We'll be starting at sunrise. We'll probably paint until noon. Then we'll go back to the Dwight Derby House for a party. We'll have food, wine and music (Musicians TBA)  It's all #FREE and I am looking forward to a day of great experiences. 

 

“I painted Metacomet (King Philip). I interpreted the only known drawing of him. It is almost overwhelming to IMAGINE the physical magnificence of King Philip, Chief of the Wampanoag, Grand Sachem, Spiritual and Military Leader, heir to the Crystal Throne, heir to all the sacred objects, wampum history and lands of the most spectacular waterfront property on Planet Earth. 

 

“Look with wonder at the Royal Full Blood my brush conjured. It is wrong to SPEAK the name of one who has departed this life for the Happy Hunting Ground, so please forgive me for saying: Metacomet! Ah Ho!”
