Painting the Figure Outdoors Painting Workshop

This will be my second year teaching this class at the Provincetown Art Museum in Cape Cod, MA. In this class we will paint the figure outdoors on the beach and in a garden setting. The focus will be studying color from life, and simplifying nature. Visit www.Paam.org or call 508.487.1750 for more info.

Sorrow

"Sorrow" oil on linen 12x6

New painting

"By the Church Gate" oil on panel 18x24
available at John B. Strong Fine Art, Sante Fe NM.


It has been a while since I have posted anything. My show in Arizona went well, we saw some red dots which is a good thing. I don't have to much to report, I just finished this painting "By the Church Gate". It was a fun one to paint. Oh, I started moving into my new studio and have done a handful of paintings there. It is nice and big so I am excited to start some big paintings. Keep your eyes peeled for a Studio Opening Party Date sometime in June.

I will be teaching classes there once or twice a month (starting in June). The classes will be like mini workshops, they will be a full day with a demo in the first part of the day and then personal instruction while you paint during the second half. If interested email me for more info at Logan@LoganHagege.com

Solo Exhibition - Scottsdale, Arizona

Poster for Solo Exhibit $50 available at John B. Strong Fine Art


Lindsey and I are gearing up for our quick trip to Scottsdale, Arizona for my Solo Exhibition at John B. Strong Fine Art. I have been preparing for this show for months, it is quite a relief to be done with the paintings and to have everything at the gallery.


"Mesa Shadows" oil on panel 20x16
"Dark Mesa" ink on paper 7x8


I did 20 paintings for this show, all of the work is Southwestern subject matter. The funny thing is that half of the show was painted in the North East. But I enjoy being able to take trips into the Southwest, and do tons of studies outdoors and take a lot of photos, and then retreating to the North East to do my studio work. When I get back to the North East it feels like a different world, but it allows me to paint freely without too much outside influence from the Southwest.

"Mother and Child" pencil/paper 8x7.5
"Blue Bandana" oil on canvas 10x8
"Along the Mesa" gouache on paper 5x7


The artwork was done in a variety of mediums. I always enjoy going to shows that have a few drawings, some oils, and some water media. So I tried my best to do a variety of things so everyone who sees the show will enjoy it.
I tried something new at this show too. I designed a poster and printed up about 50 of them, that we will be selling at the show. They are all hand silk-screened, I look forward to seeing the public reaction to the posters. I had a good time designing it.


To see the work visit www.JohnBStrong.com or www.LoganHagege.com

The show opens February 26th 7-9pm. I hope to see anyone who can make it!

Andrew Wyeth

Andrew Wyeth
1917-2009

Sad to see Andrew Wyeth's passing, I felt like I knew him and was guided by him through his art. I always wanted to meet him, though I didn't think I would have anything great to say to him. Thanks for your work.

Time to find a new studio

Here is a photo of the studio I have been painting in for the past 7 or 8 months. It is a 1 bedroom apt., it works out great I have been painting in the bedroom and use the living room for shipping and frame storage. I don't sleep here, so I can keep it pretty messy. Most of the paintings laying around are ones that I am working on for my one man show at John B. Strong Fine Art, in February. The 5 family house that this apartment is part of is being sold so I need to move out! I haven't found a new studio yet, but I think it should be pretty easy, lots of old mills in Fall River, which would work well as a studio.
Here is a photo out of the studio window today, after about 30 min of snow. That is my van parked across the way. I figured I would finish the painting I was working on and then head home before the snow got too bad. Turned out I waited too long. I tried driving but my van just kept sliding down the hill that it was parked on. So I gave up and decided to walk home.
Here I am almost home, it wasn't bad just a couple of miles. Kind of fun for a westerner like me. By the time I got to the park next to my apartment it was a full blown winter wonderland.
I ran into my girlfriend who was sledding with her niece. Still snowing, we are supposed to get 9-12 inches!

Some more gouaches

"Blanket for Warmth" gouache 10x8

Here are a couple more paintings that I just finished.
"Big Cloud" gouache 7x5
