The Emotions Evoked By Max Hayslette Paintings

By Rena Hudson


Max Hayslette paintings are representational and based on impressionism rather than realism. He uses abstract impressionism to transport his viewers into the paintings. Small strokes create layers in his images and they speak to people. His array of landscapes depicts many places around the world.

Max Hayslette, an American artists, paints landscapes in the impressionist form. Born in Virginia he held a one man show by the time he was only 16. He later studied at the Art Institute of Chicago. He has been the recipient of many awards. His use of vibrant colors and lighting has transported many viewers to his world. He prefers to travel to the place he is painting. He takes photos and makes sketches of the location. He also notes the locations atmospheric temperature as he believes that each place has its own specific one.

Impressionist paintings are made of small, thick strokes of paint that capture the essence of the subject rather than painting it starkly. They use paint to create lifelike images that are more realistic than the traditional paintings that emphasized a central figure. Impressionists emphasize a moment in time in overall effects rather than details.

Landscapes are a popular choice for artists. They are only limited in locations by their imagination. They can paint mountains, valleys, and oceans in ways that reveal their deepness and beauty. The subjective perspective of nature is revealed by the use of color and light that is added to the landscapes.

Hayslette also like to combine an abstract element of in his paintings. Abstract art uses paint as a kind of visual language that produces an illusion that represents the subject. Abstract Impressionists use small brushstrokes to control large areas and evoke their inner emotion through their painting. They are often lyrical and thoughtful paintings that express their emotions and energy.

These paintings can be viewed in more than 300 galleries and collections, both public and private. Some of them are: Art Institute of Chicago, Ken Behm Gallery of Seattle, Seattle Art Museum, the Findlay Gallery of Chicago, the Feragil Gallery of New York City, Christopher Clark Gallery of San Francisco, and Hanson Gallery of Carmel.

Many of the more well-known landscapes have been sold as posters. Provence by the Sea uses red, green, blue and yellow to bring forth peaceful, warm emotions. Green Hills of Tuscany has deep reds, greens, and golds that evoke deeper and more thoughtful feelings. Fenetres De St. Tropez uses mainly cooler blues that result in a joyful and light emotion. The posters sell all over the world and are found on the internet, in stores, and even in auctions.

Many painters use this forum to evoke emotions like passion, anger, or excitement. Max Hayslette has mastered this and evokes many emotions with his warm and beautiful landscapes. They are located in galleries, art stores, and collections but also can be bought as posters for people who want to have them in their houses.
