Whether painting treasured American landscapes or people at work and at play, Impressionist Candace Whittemore Lovely presents a pleasing non-confrontational view of contemporary life.
Her inspiration and technique come from the masters and traditions of The Boston School, America's oldest continuing school of painting. It is a philosophy based on sound drawing, sensitivity to line and values, and an impressionistic observation of light and color.
Lovely's vast body of work represents her unique vision, technical ability and boundless energy. Born in Vermont, she was drawn to American impressionism while sitting in an art history class at the University of Vermont when a professor discussed Winslow Homer. Captivated by his work, she recalls feeling devastated when the professor told her that no one taught how to paint like that anymore. Fortunately, the professor was wrong.
