paul_schmid Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 If anyone would like to see some paintings of the Cascades, Olympics, etc. I've put together a site for my work. Any work sold helps to buy time so I can get up there to paint more. paulschmidstudio.com Quote
Dechristo Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Any work sold helps to buy time so I can get up there to paint more. I'm against putting paint on mountains. Quote

minx Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Don't be wankers. Check the site out before you burn the guy. Quote
cj001f Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Don't be wankers. Check the site out before you burn the guy. Some nice stuff Quote
sweatinoutliquor Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Hey Paul, I think you got some cool work there! I probably wont be buying any of it cause I couldn't afford breakfast this week (much less nice art), but anyway, good luck and keep up the good work! Welcome to cc.com! Quote
DirtyHarry Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 I didn't see any pictures of mountains, just trees and rivers and shit. But some nice pieces. Oh yeah, on behalf of Distel: Eat shit and die noob. Quote
Gary_Yngve Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 I'd love to see more mountain shots. There's an artist in Mazama who does some mountainscapes -- Steve House has some of his photos in his show. I've generally seen mountains neglected in art until I visited the Norwegian National Gallery. There were some excellent works in there. I'll try to post a few later today. For those of us like me and you who may not be able to afford paintings, consider that your employer may be looking to buy art. Seattle has a mandate of some amount of art that needs to be purchased for a new building (or something like that), and there's always the thing about how the art is supposed to inspire us and keep us sane.

archenemy Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 And maybe consider soliciting your work on a site that welcomes members for that purpose. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Yeah. And if you do solicit your art work on this website there better be titties involved. Quote
Dechristo Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Yeah. And if you do solicit your art work on this website there better be titties involved. Quote
Dechristo Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Salad days TR: did a winter ascent of that biggest tit in March of '79; started in the dark after work on Friday and was promptly to work at 8AM the following Monday. I know from that trip to never put a frozen biner in your mouth. "The glory of young men is their strength." ...not their intelligence. [/pidgeonchestbeat] Quote
olyclimber Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Nice work there, keep it up. For this crowd you're definitely going to need to focus on mountains or rock faces more. I was at a party at an ex-CC.commer's (one of the bannernated) house a little while ago, and he had and amazing painting of El Cap spme climber/artist did (as well as one of a raven that I believe was supposed to evoke the pysche of a big wall climber). Those were some painting I would definitely buy if I could afford to. Quote
cj001f Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 It wasn't something by Chiura obata? or Tom Killion? Quote
olyclimber Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 nope. The Obata painting you show was painted in 1930...if you had the original of that I bet it would fetch a pretty penny. Quote
olyclimber Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 The painting was done by a rock climber. You could tell, because of the way the rock was painted...that the person had a connection to it. And I think he is a local guy who still climbs, because a friend offered to introduce me to him. I don't think either of the guys you show here were climbers. Quote
OlympicMtnBoy Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Also check out: http://www.davidmikelsons.com/fine_art/gallery.html Click on the "mountains" tab. He's a friend of mine who was living here till a few months ago and did some nice paintings of the Olympics, Cascades, Smith Rock, etc. I was dragging him along on some easy climbs. You can't have "Last Pitch", it's already spoken for though. And he doesn't know I'm posting him here. Quote

I don't think either of the guys you show here were climbers. 1) bollocks 2) I believe Killion climbs(ed) or at least ski mountaineers Quote
John Frieh Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) Nice pics Paul! Don't mind the boulder boy... he is only fascinated by small things... seems to be a theme in his life Anybody have reqs on photo and/or painting mounting/hanging in PDX or SEA... I have some valuable pics so I wouldn't mind paying a little bit extra to ensure 50 years from now they still looks amazing. TIA! One of my favs that most people know: Edited January 13, 2006 by John Frieh Quote
olyclimber Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 1.) You're obviously not a professional art critic like I am. STFU NOOB! 2.) Ya. Maybe. Could be. Speculate on. Quote
cj001f Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 One of my favs that most people know: Nice. There are a bunch of his prints for sale at Patagucci Ventura. Samivel had some nice work as well: Quote

And I think he is a local guy who still climbs, because a friend offered to introduce me to him. The painting Olympia Climber is referring to was done by Jeff Hansel. Quote
dkemp Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Doug Miller lives in Wenatchee, and has a store in Leavenworth. I doubt he is a climber but obviously loves the mountains. Doug Millers site Quote
