This is one of a collection of donkey paintings that Clark had made into notecards several years ago. Proceeds support Hospice patients and their families. We have only a few boxes left. The Clark Hulings Notecard Collection "As everyone knows, I love to paint donkeys. When I first started painting them, nobody could understand why. Now it seems everyone has come to share my enthusiasm. No show of my work would be complete without a burro. They have become my trademark." – Clark Hulings, Art of the West, January/February 2007    |

NOVEMBER 2009 November Sunlight – Nambé, New Mexico, Oil, 29 x 48 inches "People who don’t know New Mexico think of it only as arid desert covered with piñon trees. But lovely valleys boasting giant old cottonwood trees offer the artist another aspect to paint. This fork in the Nambé valley is a favorite painting site of mine. I have painted it several times from different angles and in different seasons." – Clark Hulings, A Gallery of Paintings |

OCTOBER 2009 La Granja, Oil, 24 x 36 inches "This farmhouse is located on the tortuous road from Málaga to Ronda in Southern Spain. What struck me first about the scene was the variety of levels, then the curving of the road, the sloping paths, the olive groves in the valley and the blue hills in the distance. I needed only to turn on the sunlight to pull it all together." – Clark Hulings, A Gallery of Paintings |

JULY 2009 Thatch Delivery, Oil, 21 x 35 inches "They don’t call [Ireland] The Emerald Isle for nothing. The intensity of that color is extreme. But what is rich and beautiful in nature can be cheap and garish in paint. And in Ireland one must resist temptation and keep the dull greens handy. While I was painting this picture, there was a struggle as I added more and more olives and grays, until in the end only a few discriminating flecks of pure pigment were left on a blanket of lesser greens. With color, so much can be suggested with so little." – Clark Hulings |

JUNE 2009 Sylvia, Oil "The human body is...a fantastic teaching medium. There are linear relationships in the figure to produce rhythm. There are shadowy patterns that define the shape of the individual parts. And there are things to be learned about color from the way light falls on the subtle hues in skin. But when we artists go out into the world after art school we rarely continue painting what we are best trained to paint - the nude. The man who bought this picture (page 75 of A Gallery of Paintings) was told by his wife in no uncertain terms that it would have to hang in his office - inner office! After a few years, it was in the master bedroom. But now, I am proud to say, it has finally been elevated to an honored place in a corner of the living room." -- Clark Hulings, A Gallery of Paintings |

APRIL 2009 The Lonely Man, Oil, 20 x 30 inches "It had been a cold, misty miserable winter afternoon but the setting sun was finally poking its rays out from beneath the clouds. I had driven around a bend on the coast road when I came upon this workman, soaking wet and still miles from home.... I did give [him] a lift...." - Clark Hulings, A Gallery of Paintings, 2006 This image is also available as an archival print. |
