Warning. this page is a huge page full of Maxfield Parrish's art work.

This one of my fav. artists. perry winkle blue can also properly be
called, Parrish Blue.. after Maxfields fabulous blue skies.
Max would take a wooden panel and paint a lanscape, then he would
cover the landscape in a coat of varnish. Let it dry and paint some
more. He would keep doing this to one picture over and over again till
there was a thick build up of varnish... the result is neat, it pulls
light into the work, and just bring life to the painting.
