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 is a impressionist landscape artist from America. He was born in 1930 in Virginia and at 16 had his first one man show. He later studied at the Art Institute of Chicago where he honed his craft. He received a number of awards over the years and people love the way his dramatic lighting and warm use of color transports them into his mind. His habit is to travel to the location that he wants to paint and take a photograph of it. He also makes sketches and takes notes of the atmospheric temperature. He believes that this is unique to each location.

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 popular with many artists. They like the fact that they can paint huge mountains, rolling valleys, and even deep and mysterious oceans. They are only limited by their imaginations. They prefer to use a subjective perspective when depicting nature and add light and color to the landscape.

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.

Hayslette paintings can be seen in more than 300 private and public collections. They are also found in galleries such as the Ken Behm Gallery of Seattle, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Seattle Art Museum, Feragil Gallery of New York City, Findlay Gallery of Chicago, the the Hanson Gallery of Carmel, and Christopher Clark Gallery of San Francisco.

Some of his most well-known paintings have been recreated as posters. Provence by the Sea uses red, green, yellow, and blue to evoke peaceful and warm emotions. Green Hills of Tuscany uses deeper reds, golds, and greens that leave the viewer with deeper, more thoughtful emotions. Fenetres De St. Tropez primarily uses cool blues and evokes a light, joyful feeling. These posters are sold in many venues and are easy to find on both the internet and in art stores.

Paintings evoke excitement, passion, and joy in many viewers. Max Hayslette brings all of feelings out in his wide array of beautiful and warm landscapes. Many of them can be purchased in poster form and hung in homes and offices. Originals are found in galleries, art stores, and private collections around the world.
