I wanted to share this in the blog since it is just so very odd doing this things happened using this painting and frame.
In 2008 Used to do a painting and just just recently removed it through the stretcher bars. The painting was an odd size, therefore, the stretcher bar frame just sat on the medial side within the studio. Two to three weeks ago, I needed a picture that I desired to paint, because I was considering life’s difficulties and incapable of overcome. The look was of the mountain, as we are coming down through the top. I knew I wanted it larger instead of perfectly square. The 26″ x 32″ stretcher bar frame was very successful. So I developed a canvas. I knew in advance the painting was going to be called “These Mountains We Climb”.
I was simply a couple of hours involved with it about the first day. The 2nd day, I took the painting when camping for the beach and managed to loose the photo reference. I needed to finish the painting from memory. It was some epic struggle in memory!
We was discussing frames which one in particular that people had just acquired came to mind. I ran right down to the frame shop and LO! it fit! what an odd size!
But this is in which the story gets interesting, the frame originated in Christies ah. About the botton from the frame was a brass label. It had, alternatives framed a painting by Frederic Remington, called “The Way Down” and featured a string of pack mules descending a mountain side.
Sound strange!?
1. The Classical impressionist artist I needed done in the initial 26″ x 32″ stretcher bars was called “Inspiration”, but was later removed and they sat, awaiting new life, off and away to the medial side in my studio.
2. “These Mountains We Climb” is often a painting about our battles in your life, your journey through the shadows and mountain highs. That has been slightly included in the painting itself- having lost the reference!
3. It became of fit the frame that we became of have down in the frame shop.
4. The Remington painting been regarding the decent down a mountain side, whereby the title could be taken many different ways. Which coincided with mine, though hadn’t arrive at my knowledge until after the painting was completed and framed.
Sometimes it seems like either the “stars align” or that i really enjoy seeing, this frame was meant for this painting. Why?! I have no clue!! But there it really is! Incidentally, the label is coupled to the back from the painting and you will be sold using the painting. Things don’t really ever happen this way- fun stuff!
