Balfe is best known for his specific color palette and glazing style, along with his masterful eye of paint handling. “What I would say about painting for me is that when I paint in the field, I try to create something that is partly what I see and partly what I would like to see, or where I would like to be, and for me in doing this I am creating my own handwriting in oil paint.”
This painting unfurls the rolling lands of the Adirondacks, the towering trees offering shade as the lakes open up for the grazing cows. The sky remains in a warm-toned hue of gilded sunlight just peeking through the soft clouds. Gold framing included. 12x24”.
