Ginger Whellock

 
Castle Rock, Colorado

Artist's Statement

Oil painter, Ginger Whellock, paints the western landscape with great sympathy.  In the early 1970s’, she moved from her home in Chicago to a remote cattle ranch in Montana.  Surrounded by mountains, a huge sky and miles from civilization, she became enchanted with the western life style and landscape.  Today, many adventures, career changes and moves later, she captivates us with her sun drenched, well designed, serene landscape paintings. 

“Chronicling the landscape for future generations has never been my intention.  I want to convince you, through my paintings, to protect this place for everyone, forever. I will paint this beautiful Earth for you to enjoy, but we are all responsible for its care and preservation.

I approach painting with oils, my medium of choice, in a loose to gradually more defined painting technique. I attempt to bring the focal point to attention with high contrast and detail while leaving other areas less defined, brushy and lower in value. As I contemplate the process of the painting, I think about how I will make it come to life, provide a place for the viewer to ‘go’ into the painting thereby allowing you to join me in the journey and convey to the you a sense of peace and hope." 

"I paint to keep myself centered, to keep growing artistically and intellectually and to give you pleasure.”

Miss Patience

"Miss Patience"

Oil

A few years ago my husband and I took the ferry from Ocracoke Island to Hatteras.  It was a dull day with plenty of mist as we stopped to investigate this harbor filled with local fishing boats all proudly displaying their names as "Miss" something.  I painted "Miss Cookie" many years ago and now "Miss Patience" has  pulled me back to the scene and happy memories.

Sunshine and Shadow

"Sunshine and Shadow"

Oil
One summer morning we headed out in search of some good fishing spots for my husband and painting spots for me.  The day was spectacular.  By 10 am we came upon this spot with a bridge over the river and both of us knew we had found heaven.  Warm sun, cool breeze off the water, trout hanging out in the deep pools and plenty of shade for my easel.   I did some plein air sketches that day, though this final painting is a studio piece.... thanks for asking.
