September Featured Artist: Drew Scarpa

Inspiration and Work
As an avid fisherman and boat captain, Drew spends many days outdoors. Through that experience he’s been developing a body of work that is based on the landscape and seascape of Southern New Jersey where he lives, as well as other areas along the East Coast.

His goal is to capture the essence of the moment. The warm glow of sunshine, the cool of the evening. Through pastel, smudging, scraping, etc., he creates the illusion of the sun sparkling on the waves, the grasses waving in a meadow. It’s the natural tendency of the pastel on paper that he tries to unleash and not quite control.

He doesn’t incorporate fine detail…..just a suggestion of detail. He feels this makes the viewer more engaged in the work.

September Featured Artist: Michael Doyle

In Michael Doyle’s paintings one will find intimate portrayals of interiors and landscapes.  Life’s richness is examined in each one of his paintings. The viewer can trace the touch of Doyle’s brush as it presses through wet paint with a light graze here and a heavy dash there. Michael Doyle uses tones and hues that are present in nature and his palette is as expressive as each one of his brushstrokes.  Doyle’s love of painting leads him to explore the relationships of objects to their surrounding environment through the study of light and color contrasts. By doing so, he recognizes the beauty in each landscape, still life, and interior he paints.
