About the Item
Artist Comments
A man fly fishes in a mountain stream, the morning sun breaks through the mist and lights up the water and trees. Exquisite lighting and shadow work throughout the painting. Kent says this classically-styled scene was inspired by the discovery of a new fishing spot, and the value of solitude in the natural world. His familiarity with the Rocky Mountains and love of outdoor recreation is reflected in this simple, joyous image. This painting comes stretched on three quarter inch stretcher bars. It can be hung on the wall directly out of the box, however, we recommend framing for optimal display.
About the Artist
There are more places Kent Sullivan would like to paint than he ever will be able. Employing many of the Hudson River School methods in his landscapes, Kent captures the ephemeral interactions of clouds, sun and earth with his delicate use of color and gesture. His work is published in two prominent books: "Art of the National Parks" and "Picturing Florida." He has lectured at museums and been sought after by many large corporations. “Several years ago I had the incredible fortune of being part of the NASA art program. Five paintings are now part of the Smithsonian Collection. At one gathering at the Kennedy Space Center, Leonard Nimoy came up and asked me for my autograph!”
