Timothy P. Wilson
PAST EXHIBITION: 'Everything Illuminated'
June 13th- July 26th, 2015
June 13th- July 26th, 2015
ARTIST STATEMENT:
These recent paintings are the result of my recent endeavoring into Plein Air painting. The lure of the sea made me pack up my things in the studio and set out to paint on location by the Atlantic. Daily studies, through winter storms and summer heat, informed larger paintings which changed as the weather and tide continued alter my perceptions of the composition. Eventually the layering and altering made a deconstructed expressive view of the ocean, rather than a frozen moment in time.
