Painted on location of the Rio Hondo which flows along the road to the Taos Ski Valley, New Mexico.
”Rio Hondo” 24”x30” (#646) oil on canvas by Lee Gordon Seebach
With this painting, I really let loose! Impasto paint applications, large brushes, painting knife work, and lots of fun.
I hope you enjoy seeing this painting.
More to come,

@countrygirl...Thanks! A painting knife is a trowel-like tool. They are available in many shapes and sizes. You can mix up paint on the palette with a painting knife, scoop it up, and apply the pigment to the canvas.

Yes....I used one years ago and it's definitely not my talent but I love the results. I like how you manipulate the colours and how you aren't afraid to use colour. I don't know art "jargon" to you'll please excuse my explanations :)

Oh OK, I get it now. Don't feel too bad, the painting knife is a very difficult tool to learn how to use. It's not like a brush where you have more control. I mostly use it to lay in an area of color that is one simple note, and I want the surface of the paint to be flat. I often then adjust the edges of the knife stroke using a brush. The painting knife is also good for making a very sharp edge. Hope this helps.
