I recently visited the Atlantic Center For The Arts in New Smyrna Beach. It is a quiet place where artists could go to focus on their art in a tranquil, natural environment. The Art Center offers a residency program which brings together internationally-acclaimed master artists from different disciplines with talented artists who are selected by the masters. I stayed with a couple of the administrators of the art center while painting in the Canaveral Paint Out. As a gift I left them a painting of the Pabst Visitor Center & Gallery which is located there. It is nestled amongst pine trees, oaks & palmettos. I enjoyed the way the modern architecture of the building seemed to fit right into the landscape. The morning I created the painting the shadows were dancing across the face of the building. It was one of the moments that a building says: "Paint Me."

Steward,
ReplyDeleteGreat use of shadows which incorporates nicely into the work. Your eyes travel up and down the structure with a great variety of light and contrast. Congrats! Your fan, David M., Diane's husband.
