The "Art of Waterways" Statement
There is a fascinating world beneath the surface of the sea, where light, temperature, and currents transform shape and color. Typically, these features cannot be seen. That is, from a distance the eyes (1) blend colors into one color, (2) cannot hold-in-mind brief water images, and (3) primarily see what the brain is expecting to see (e.g., solid colored blue or green water). For this reason, the eyes do not see purple mixed with green waters with orange sun-reflected highlights.
Since I have witnessed such transformations from early childhood on, I want viewers to also appreciate these transient changes in water. Such observations and interpretations contribute to my brand -- as an Artist of the Sea and of waterways that lead of the sea. I invite the viewer to enter into this world.
Process. Initially, I use pastels and watercolors to capture some local color from the sea. In later studio painting, I work in layers to capture underlying features and then move into my contemporary interpretations that represent life, its energy, and continuity. These interpretations go beyond a simple copying of a seascape.
Art Work Sizes Medium sized and large paintings (as large as 44x28”)feature the interplay among winds, water, and skies, whereas mini oils (as small as 6x6”) capture a stylized or abstract version of a scene.
