Chattahoochee River Painting By Jill Saur

©1990-2016 Chattahoochee River By Jill Saur, all rights reserved

Atlanta is a big city and people here don't realize there are thousands of acres along the Chattahoochee River that have been preserved as part of the National Park Service.  When you get out in these areas, you realize you could be anywhere! The scenery is breathtaking, there are no sounds of cars, the air is fresh, and it's quiet!

My 48"x36" acrylic painting of Sope Creek, is titled, "Autumn Promise".  I'm thankful to live in such a beautiful area where I can get lost in nature and have my artistic senses refreshed.

Studies in work environments have shown that the productivity of an employee is elevated by as much as 25% when they are exposed to original art in their everyday jobs. This doesn’t surprise me.  Art that makes us feel good can uplift our moods and give us a greater sense of well-being.  Whether in a home or business, I'm honored that my paintings are hung in a prominent place for all to enjoy.

Merry Christmas To My Patrons

  MERRY CHRISTMAS!


Watercolor Painting By Jill Saur

To my patrons who celebrate Christmas, I wish you a wonderful Christmas! Growing up, I was only taken to church on Easter. It wasn't until I was eighteen, that I turned to God. I've always been amazed that the Old Testament has over 360 prophecies of Jesus birth, life, and resurrection. My favorite prophecy regarding his birth is, "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel." (Isaiah 7:14)   God is very deep and so is His word. Whenever I study the Old Testament, it's like going on a treasure hunt!

I want to thank you for making this year and previous years, a wonderful experience for me as an artist. Thank you for your patronage!

My Very Best,

Jill Saur www.JillSaur.com

Vincent Van Gogh's Trees

Vincent Van Gogh Pollard Birches
Vincent Van Gogh Trees "Pollard Birches" 1884

"I can think of no other European painter whose work expresses such a stripped respect for everyday things without elevating them, in some way, without referring to salvation by way of an ideal which the things embody or serve." - John Berger on Vincent Van Gogh

It's no secret that Vincent Van Gogh is number one on my list of favorite artists.  He was passionate, disciplined, incredibly smart, innovative, and someone who loved deeply.  Can you just get lost in his trees?  I can.  In the above drawing, the trees take center stage, but it's not long before you notice the image of people working in the fields.  I love this piece.  Please enjoy another quote below by John Berger.  He writes of Van Gogh's act of drawing in beautifully descriptive terms.

"What do we see? Thyme, other shrubs, limestone rocks, olive trees on a hillside, in the distance a plain, in the sky birds. He dips the pen into brown ink, watches, and marks the paper. The gestures come from his hand, his wrist, arm, shoulder, perhaps even the muscles in his neck, yet the strokes he makes on the paper are following currents of energy which are not physically his and which only become visible when he draws them. Currents of energy? The energy of a tree’s growth, of a plant’s search for light, of a branch’s need for accommodation with its neighboring branches, of the roots of thistles and shrubs, of the weight of rocks lodged on a slope, of the sunlight, of the attraction of the shade for whatever is alive and suffers from the heat, of the mistral from the north which has fashioned the rock strata. My list is arbitrary; what is not arbitrary is the pattern his strokes make on the paper. The pattern is like a fingerprint. Whose?" - John Berger on Vincent Van Gogh

This past summer I had the opportunity to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art on three different days.  I spent quite a bit of time at the Van Gogh exhibit.  I was mesmerized by his brushstrokes and use of color.  If you have any opportunity to visit any museum that houses works by Van Gogh, please don't miss the opportunity! - Jill Saur  www.JillSaur.com

Kebler Pass Colorado
©2015 Jill Saur, all rights reserved
Two years ago, my husband and I were in this very forest on Kebler Pass in Colorado. When we left, I filed in my mind that I wanted to return to this very place, one of my favorite spots on this earth. Two years later, two flights and a four hour car drive with my sister, Gina, I returned to that very spot. Lying on the ground with my camera, photographing the incredible cyan sky behind the brilliant aspen leaves, I couldn't have been any more thankful!


Ohio Pass Colorado
©2015 Jill Saur, all rights reserved
A short distance from Kebler Pass, Colorado, is Ohio Pass.  My sister and I ventured up the steep narrow road to find a treasure of aspen trees with their gold leaves quaking in the gentle breeze.  Truly, Kebler Pass and Ohio Pass are two very special places that may be one of the best kept secrets in Colorado.  

It will be interesting to see the paintings that emerge from this very special trip.  As in years past, I've come home with tremendous photographs and a vast memory of blessed days and starry starry nights.

Please visit my website to see my aspen tree paintings.  I invite you to become a collector and experience the joy of owning artwork that inspires and uplifts your soul!  JILL SAUR'S WEBSITE

                                              BUY ORIGINAL ART

You walk into a gallery or browse through an artist's website, and all of a sudden, amidst the host of paintings, your attention is turned to just one.  Then, in the quietness of your observation, this image that has no literal voice, begins to speak to you, uplift your spirit, move your heart and make you smile.
The number one reason to buy an original work of art is because of how much you love it, and how it makes you feel.  People who buy original art have a lot to smile about!
A great painting inspirits the right hemisphere of our brains, stimulating ideas, and ideas are the root of creativity.  If you surround yourself with art that inspires, you will be inspired!
Studies in work environments have shown that the productivity of an employee is elevated by as much as 25% when they are exposed to original art in their everyday jobs. This doesn’t surprise me.  Art that makes us feel good can uplift our moods and give us a greater sense of well-being.  My patrons tell me that my art inspires them and the more they look at my work, the more they see.  The greatest two compliments I get are that my paintings exude ‘joy’ and that they're  displayed in a prominent place.
When you buy an original painting from me, your painting will become a family heirloom and be able to be passed down to subsequent generations. 
Original art also has aesthetic value.  It can either blend in with the natural décor of a room, or as many collectors prefer, it can stand out from everything else and be the focal point.  Because my art is vibrant,  full of life, and luminous,  most of my clients purchase my art to become the focal point of their room. 
When you buy a painting from me, you can continue to follow my work through my website and  blog.  I have a solid record of selling to collectors for the past twenty-nine years.  Read what my happy patrons have to say about collecting my work.  PATRONS COMMENTS
When you collect art from local and national artists who have spent years developing their style, technique, creativity and expertise, you become the impetus that keeps the renaissance of talented contemporary artists alive. - Jill Saur
