B i l l Ant o nUnder the Spell of the West

I believe the key to a successful work of art is the ability to convey a simple elegance using the vocabulary of paint to capture the spirit of a subject that informs its viewer of something deeper than the obvious narrative of the painting. The power of a great painting comes when there is room left for the viewer to insert their own story and emotionally be moved.
