The sky is blue, the air is crisp, the birds are singing and the flowers bloom. My sprit is filled with hope. I am feeling grounded and at peace. Life is beautiful. And so I paint.
The sky is blue, the air is crisp, the birds are singing and the flowers bloom. My spirit is restless, distracted and anxious. And so I paint.
The sky is blue, the air is crisp, the birds are singing and the flowers bloom. My spirit is filled with doubt and all kinds of fearful uncertainties. All reference points are blurred. And so I paint.
The sky is blue, the air is crisp, the birds are singing and the flowers bloom. My spirit is once again feeling grounded and life is filled with adventure and unlimited possibilities. And so I paint.
Using
brushes, sponges, fingers, acrylic and pastel, Paul Kauffman creates a passion
play of art. With little pre-determined intention, and without catering to a
critical audience, he is able to develop a painterly play between himself, and
his materials. A play that develops through detailed drawing, pastel overlays,
the use of negative space and acrylic applied in both watered and impasto
technique. The result is a rather Electric Impressionism. A lively jolt to the
otherwise beautiful serenity of a Sunday morning repast. Diana Carey (curator)
