This painting, entitled Requiem for the Rain Forest was exhibited at the Red Dot art fair in Miami in December last year and until last week was stored up in Rochester.
It evokes a spirit of color and mystery and also is a visual poem about the fragility of the planet's rain forests.

The feeling of joy I have when Nicholas' paintings surround me is palpable.
As paintings long-stored came out of boxes and bubble wrap, we were reminded of the journey we have been on together...with the art...with one another...to Paris, Florence, New York, Porto Recanati on the Adriatic, Hamburg, Edinburgh, Harvard and Leipzig...and now Ithaca.
This painting, called The Lovers, has always remained in our personal collection, it has never been shown. The shadows, the light, the bold strokes, the emergent forms, all speak to me of the process that is the unfolding of intimate relationship.

A client suggested that I place a "nice painting" rather higher up on the wall of my dental surgery, so that she
ReplyDeletecould see while dental work was being done for her. A good idea, I thought, to distract clients.
My nurse found and ordered this canvas print, http://en.wahooart.com/A55A04/w.nsf/OPRA/BRUE-7Z5Q5K, by Gustav Klimt, by
browsing to wahooart.com who made our excellent print from their
database of images from western art.
