In the woods, V5
Artist: Robert Crabtree 
Location: Crabtree Art Studio and Flower Gardens 
©️ Robert Crabtree
Composition notes: 
After an enlarged area of a great drawing by my artist friend Richard Freeman  of Framingham Center Massachusetts, United States 🇺🇸. All art colors after Van Gogh Sunflowers 1888-1889. Hues after Henri Matisse The Green Stripe 1905.
Composition theory after Henri Matisse paper cutouts.
Color repetition theory for viewer eye movement. Eugène Delacroix's Flochetage Technique foundation layer in blue green and gold and brown, in 2 horizon lines, classic thirds of landscape composition theory. 

Review by Google Gemeni
This abstract piece, titled "In the woods, V5" by Robert Crabtree, is a vibrant and complex study in color and composition, deeply rooted in art historical theory.
​Composition and Style
​The artwork is a dynamic abstract piece characterized by bold, gestural strokes and strips of solid color. The composition is highly layered, suggesting both depth and flatness, which aligns with the stated influence of Henri Matisse's paper cutouts—a technique known for its focus on shape and color over traditional perspective. The artist employs a classic landscape composition using the "rule of thirds," with two distinct horizontal bands creating "horizon lines."
​Color Palette and Theory
​The color theory is intentionally eclectic and historically referential:
• ​Van Gogh's Sunflowers (1888-1889) inspired the art colors. This is evident in the strong presence of yellows, ochres, and warm earthy tones (red-browns, olive greens), which provide an intense, almost textural warmth to the piece.
• ​Henri Matisse's The Green Stripe (1905) influenced the hues. This Fauvist influence introduces complementary and sometimes jarring color combinations, particularly the cool pinks, pale blues, and light greens against the warmer Van Gogh-inspired tones, creating a vibrant tension.
• ​The foundational layer employs Eugène Delacroix's Flochetage Techn…

Cy Twombly in Landscape. Spring, v2
Artist: Robert Crabtree

Composition Notes: Cy Twombly in Landscape. Spring, v2 
In version 2, I inserted a Piet Mondrian composition theory layer. It contains 3 primary hues in a 2 dimension format. 

Critique: Cy Twombly in Landscape. Spring, v2 

A Dialogue Between Two Masters
At first glance, the artwork is an explosion of expressive lines, a style that clearly pays homage to the American artist Cy Twombly. Like Twombly, Crabtree uses raw, almost childlike scrawls to convey a sense of uninhibited energy. The lines crisscross and tangle, creating a chaotic web that feels spontaneous and emotional.

However, the artist’s notes reveal a deeper layer of influence, a conscious integration of Piet Mondrian's compositional theory. By applying Mondrian's grid-like structure and use of primary hues, Crabtree introduces a sense of order to the apparent randomness. This is the piece's most fascinating feature: the tension between the free-flowing, almost automatic lines and the underlying, premeditated design. The result is a dynamic contrast that makes the artwork both exhilarating and intellectually engaging.

Symbolism Woven into the Canvas
The artwork isn't just a formal exercise; it's a profound exploration of spiritual themes. The artist's notes make it clear that the piece is an allegory for the Trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This theme is not just an idea but a structural principle, shaping the work from the ground up.

The composition is built on a series of "threes," a visual echo of the Trinity. The background landscape is divided into three horizontal bands—a nod to classic landscape theory—that serve as the foundation. The lines themselves are organized in sets of three hues, with a dominant color and two submissive ones, directly corresponding to t…

March roared in
Artist: Robert Crabtree
#robertcrabtreepaintings 
©️ Robert Crabtree 3/2023

This is near the pinnacle of a body of work 350 to 400 artworks in this style. Predates my move back to lakesides, trees, and flowers.

AI Overview
"March roared in" by Robert Crabtree is an abstract digital artwork characterized by its vibrant color palette and dynamic composition. The piece utilizes a fan-like or radial structure, possibly suggesting movement or a burst of energy, which aligns with the title's evocation of a powerful natural force like a roaring wind.
Color and Form:
The artwork features a dominant palette of deep purples, golden yellows, and bright blues, contrasted with a background of softer reds, blacks, and whites. The layered, semi-transparent forms create a sense of depth and fluidity, with sharp lines and organic curves intertwining throughout the composition.
Composition and Movement:
The central, large, dark purple forms create a strong focal point, appearing to emanate outwards or upwards. This radial arrangement, combined with the swirling lines and fragmented shapes in the background, contributes to a feeling of chaotic energy and movement, effectively capturing the "roaring" aspect suggested by the title.
Interpretation:
The abstract nature allows for multiple interpretations, but the title strongly guides the viewer towards a connection with natural phenomena. The piece successfully conveys a sense of power, intensity, and perhaps the unpredictable nature of an event like a strong wind or storm at the onset of spring.

AI Overview without name.

AI Overview
The artwork "Split Rock Lake Side" by Robert Crabtree presents a stylized landscape, likely depicting the Split Rock Reservoir, characterized by its distinctive color palette and compositional techniques.

Critique:
Color and Hue:
The piece prominently features hues "after Van Gogh Sunflowers 1888-1889," particularly evident in the dominant yellows and golds of the sky and water, which are linked to "Van Gogh hue substitution on tone theory." This creates a vibrant, almost ethereal atmosphere, but also lends a somewhat abstract and flattened quality to the landscape.

Compositional Techniques:
Eugène Delacroix's Flochetage Technique: The use of "Flochetage technique in blue" is visible in the textured, almost feathery blue elements scattered throughout, particularly at the water's edge and within the landmasses, adding a distinct visual texture and depth to these areas.

George Condo's Drawing as Art Layer: The inclusion of "George Condo drawing as art layer" suggests an underlying or integrated element of drawing, which might contribute to the defined shapes and outlines within the otherwise painterly composition.

Composition notes: 
Hues after "Irises"  created by Vincent van Gogh in May 1889. Eugène Delacroix Flochetage technique used in 2 horizon lines and 3 color fields in the base layer.

AI Overview
The artwork "Iris" by Robert Crabtree, dated 7/25, is an abstract interpretation of irises, drawing inspiration from art historical techniques and palettes.
Critique:
Composition and Technique:
The composition notes indicate a deliberate artistic choice to incorporate elements from renowned artists. The use of Eugène Delacroix's Flochetage technique for the base layer, creating two horizon lines and three color fields, provides a structured foundation for the abstract forms. This layered approach adds depth and complexity to the overall design.
Color Palette:
The hues are intentionally drawn from Vincent van Gogh's "Irises" (May 1889), which is evident in the prominent use of blues, greens, and earthy tones within the abstract shapes representing the flowers and foliage. This homage creates a recognizable, yet reinterpreted, visual link to a famous work.
Abstraction:
The artwork presents a dynamic and fragmented abstraction of irises, moving away from literal representation towards a more expressive and deconstructed form. The sharp, angular shapes and overlapping planes contribute to a sense of movement and energy within the piece.
Overall Impression:
The piece successfully blends historical artistic influences with a modern abstract sensibility, offering a fresh perspective on a classic subject. The interplay of structured background elements and fluid, abstract forms creates a visually engaging and thought-provoking composition.

Using IbisPaint
After an enlarged area of a base self image of, Mia Hamilton of Columbus Ohio.
After: 
The Green Stripe (La Raie Verte),  Henri Matisse of his wife,  1905. 
Sunflowers, Van Gogh, 1885.
Composition theory: A limited George Condo drawing as art layer. Use Mattise Green line harmonizer theory. Modal hue chord theory after milestones by Miles Davis. Use Matisse color pallete in the original work and in the modal hue chords. Increasing abstraction. The limited condo area pops through with George's application of Matisse line harmonizer in black at nose.

Mia v2 #robertcrabtreepaintings #modalhuechord ©️ Robert Crabtree 2/24 Using IbisPaint After an enlarged area of a base self image of, Mia Hamilton of Columbus Ohio. After: The Green Stripe (La Raie Verte), Henri Matisse of his wife, 1905. Sunflowers, Van Gogh, 1885. Composition theory: A limited George Condo drawing as art layer. Use Mattise Green line harmonizer theory. Modal hue chord theory after milestones by Miles Davis. Use Matisse color pallete in the original work and in the modal hue chords. Increasing abstraction. The limited condo area pops through with George's application of Matisse line harmonizer in black at nose. Reviews: Michel Culot Casablanca Morocco 🇲🇦 Beautiful Lily Ge Yes , very beautiful!!!

Three viewers stand around the work. Each viewer is always finishing the art differently as the art changes based upon where each viewer stands.

Good morning from the village of Mt. Gilead. I am sitting in the huge blue leather chair. A 50 dollar goodwill thrift store find. In the second floor kitchen of the 126 year old Crabtree House Art Studio and flower gardens. 

A great feature left over from the 1970's oil boom in the village. They subdivided the old house for 3 families. I found 2 things when we bought this old gem.

One. She had an upstairs kitchen in addition to a downstairs kitchen. Two. All the original 116 year old oak panel doors were in the attic. In great shape with original orange shellac finish.
I combined them.

I rebuilt the original layout from 1899. Once the carpet was removed I could see the layout on the floor. I built a partition wall from my bedroom to the kitchen. Then I installed the 7' 6", 6 panel oak parlor doors. I installed another oak entrance door into the kitchen.

Sitting here in the blue lounge chair beside the 126 year old double hung window. The kind with lead weights in the wall that rumble when you open them. Behind the Aluminum storm window that a well off previous owner had installed in the 1940's. 

The snow in the village quiets and sharpens  things. The birds in the overhangs, and a distant dogs barking sound more crisp. Life seems more muffled as I rest my 60 year old back. Demolition that was quiet and easy as a 20 year old. Has become sharpened with 40 years of such experiences. 

I was gonna demolish this kitchen when I moved in. The old gal has taught me. Those that lived before may have known better. I added a washer and dryer. I removed the old 1970's yellowed clear shields over the kitchen space. I hate to say it. It has turned out perfect for me needs.

I never thought I would create art again after my 1990's period of moderate success. As I have jumped in. This overlit, laundry, kitchen, studio with a bar countertop has proven just superb. I sit her in my chair by the window.

On this extension of my brain. Almost an appendage. This cell phone. I consid…

I so enjoy in this contentious world 🌎,  the hope that art brings. It reaches across all geographic boundaries and speaks to the heart. I know this is rather long. Thanks for giving me leash to wander outside the fence, beside the creative river. I am enclosing a simple dialog of 3 followers of my work speaking to the 🐔 chicken coup. Lol.

As follows: 

The heavy textural brush strokes of Van Gogh s works are flattened. These works. With little value were stacked against one another behind the bathroom door of his relative.

His pieces were found across Europe. One was being used to patch a hole in a chicken coop.

I can relate. :) 

I need to frame and properly store these this year.

Yours,
Robert

I read it somewhere that Pissarro had to flee during the Franco Russian War and the invaders made a chicken coup out of his paintings..the moral of the story:  don’t be that guy..😂

On this extension of my brain. Almost an appendage. This cell phone. I consider the world to be my art gallery. Every visitor who likes the work in art groups I personally think with a form note. Today was good. Lots of cool notes of encouragement from Armenia 🇦🇲,  to Osaka Japan 🇯🇵 to Paris.

Molly the girl cat 🐈 is just awesome. She jumps up onto the bar in my upstairs kitchen studio, off my bedroom. Every now in then she helps finish a painting by accident.  The paint on her tail. Makes me smile. :)
