About the Item
Artist Comments
Michael concentrates on representing the landscape that surrounds his community along the South Carolina coast. He says there is an ever-changing palette of colors in the sky throughout the day that he seeks to incorporate. I can go to the same spot and shoot photos 10 different times and each image is unique, Michael explains.
About the Artist
South Carolina-based oil painter Michael Kennedy paints impressionist landscapes that capture the grandeur of the setting sun. From a young age, he has cultivated a deep fascination with color and drawing. After receiving a BFA in Graphic Design, he continued to study painting while working as a creative in advertising. Today, he focuses his attention on his oil paintings. For each piece, he begins by preparing his canvas with a thin wash of yellow ocher. Then, paints the layout and details with thick layers of paint, leaving the sky for last. Rather than depicting a specific location, his paintings are meant to convey moods from wonder and surprise, to solitude and peace.

Artist Comments
An uplifting, light-filled landscape that combines old world realism with a modern aesthetic. Cumulus clouds gather at the horizon and sweep upward across the sky, enlivening the landscape. The cool blues of the sky contrast with the warm oranges and ochres of the hills. The long horizontal format gives a contemporary feel and a sense of calm.
About the Artist
Mandy Main is an art historian and landscape painter based in the Southern California desert. She has long been passionate about 19th Century American landscape paintings, which has been influential in her artistic practice. Mandy works in series, generally three paintings at a time. Her process begins with a vision of a place she has been, but she takes creative liberties with the aesthetic details. The artist is captivated by light and shadow, and strives to instill her work with moody drama through the representation of these elements. Using layers of paint and glazes, Mandy achieves mesmerizing atmospheric depth, encouraging the viewer to gaze and be still.

About the Artist
Jenn Williamson expertly evokes the scenery of British Columbia in her soft abstract landscapes. She utilizes defining horizontal and vertical strokes, coupled with a skillful handling of color, to create significant depth in each piece.
