Arting Every Day - Wendland Fine Art Photography

The enclosed photograph from the "Boston Lo-Fi Series" continues the exploration of urban architecture through a low-resolution lens, emphasizing the textured and grainy aesthetic typical of lo-fi photography. Captured in black and white, this image focuses on a bridge spanning across a waterfront, framed by a walkway and an empty bench in the foreground. The absence of color adds a timeless, contemplative quality, enhancing the sense of solitude and introspection.

Arting Every Day - Wendland Fine Art Photography

In my photograph from the Boston Lo-Fi Series, I aim to capture the unseen reality behind urban life. The narrow alleyway, with its gritty dumpsters and tangled power lines, offers a glimpse into the “backstage” of the city. Most people pass by these scenes daily, unaware of the raw, unfiltered narratives hidden in plain sight. I wanted to showcase the lived-in spaces where people park, store their belongings, and discard remnants of their lives. These spaces speak to the unspoken stories of urban existence.

Arting Every Day - 4081 Forest

The painting "4081 - Forest" from my Il Mio Bosco collection is a deeply personal exploration of my connection to forests and the complex emotions they evoke. Through a monochromatic palette of blacks and whites, I aim to heighten the emotional intensity, evoking solitude, fear, and trauma that stem from both personal and universal experiences. The heavy brushstrokes and layered mixed-media textures create a dense, overgrown forest, symbolizing the complexity of nature and the chaotic emotions tied to human life.

Arting Every Day - 4019 Cityscape

In Cityscape - 4019, I explore themes of urban isolation and the hidden aspects of city life. I use a monochromatic palette, dominated by black, white, and various shades of grey, to evoke a sense of starkness and coldness, reflecting the emotional distance often experienced in urban environments. The color palette serves as a symbol of the structured yet alienating nature of modern cities. The tension between order and obscurity becomes apparent as the rigid grid of the city fades into the fog, blurring the boundaries between what is visible and what remains hidden.

This piece, a labyrinthine journey through the abstract impressionist's soul, demanded not just my skill but a piece of my essence. The perennial quandary of the artist - what to reveal and what to conceal - lies at the heart of my work.

Nature colliding with urbanization

For the past 40 years, I have painted abstractions of what I see and feel in nature, and I still do that. Having traveled around the world I have also experienced life in many cities, and about 10 years ago I started to abstract the urban landscapes I have visited.

Each canvas is cut by hand and will vary in size - most canvases are 180x140 cm however because I rough-cut cut each by hand, every canvas size is unique
