Painting a city

Comment?

By Henk ter Heide

Describing the art work of Stephen Magsig (painting), Michael Pieczonka (painting) and Rod Buckle (drawing and painting).

Searching the Web for artsites I come across a fair amount of daily painters. Usually they are people with good paintings skills but not that much imagination. Almost all of them paint still lives of apple and pears.
But not the site Postcards from Detroit from Stephen Magsig.
Stephen lives and works in Detroit and fills his site with painted highlights of this city.
Although painted with oil his painting look almost as though they were drawn. With an eye for detail.

Michael Pieczonka also paints with oil. His subject are both buildings and ships. His painting feel as the traditional oil paintings. Much attention for color and less for shape.

Rod Buckle draws and paints with ink and watercolor. His subject matter is diverse. Buildings, nature, old air planes and a few paintings of people at work.
Some of his drawings are sketches. Others are very nice watercolor paintings. Some with a great eye for detail, some with a lot of attention for color.
