Nicholas Serratore 2018 Pastoral pastel 14" xd 14"
2018 Nick Serratore - Recent Work
ABOUT THE EXHIBITIONNicholas Serratore has been working in the pastel medium for over 25 years. During this time his technique and style have evolved from when he first started, “The more you work at it, the more you grow as an artist. The paintings are a direct result of that growth.” For this exhibition Serratore harnesses representations of the land to demonstrate the effects of sunlight and spatial depth upon a scene. His use of color and blending techniques create moody, atmospheric landscapes that frame almost-abstracted fields of saturated light and color. Several works showcased will reflect a new exploration of the artist’s evolvement.
