- Atriplex
- Description: A 4 panel abstraction of magnified plant spores from a genus commonly known as saltbush. This painting illustrates how spores can develop into a new organism through a biological life cycle. The application of heavily pigmented watercolor through non traditional means on 300# Arches cold press emphasizes the evolution of the species. This genus is quite variable and widely distributed. It includes many desert and seashore plants as well as plants of moist environments. The spores are a reproductive structure that is adapted for dispersal and surviving for extended periods of time in unfavorable conditions.
- Fusione
- Description: The examination of melting, merging, and blending of color, tonality and texture. Warm versus cool, opaque versus transparent, light versus dark, texture versus flat; this abstraction examines all of these concepts in one composition yet breaks it down into 3 separate and distinct panels. The fluidity of watercolor on canvas allows for all of those principals to come together and yet speak individually. The unpredictability that pouring and drop-in allows and that constant layering produces combine to create a luminous handiwork that once finished underscores the purpose of the artwork.
- Stoma
- Description: This 4 panel abstraction underscores the structure of a stoma, its background and natural pathways to allow the viewer to investigate its inner self. The alternating treatment of heavily pigmented watercolor along with transparencies through non conventional pouring and drop-in on 300# Arches cold press becomes a natural element of the composition. Plant stomas are considered a pore, found in the leaf and stem epidermis that is used for gas exchange. They are bordered by a pair of specialized cells, which are responsible for regulating the size of the opening to allow air containing carbon dioxide and oxygen to enter the plant where it is used in photosynthesis and respiration, respectively.
- Artist's statement
- Description: Everything, whether man-made or natural, has order and structure. How they are respected, modified, or disrupted, influences my artistic journey. I utilize watercolor to invoke emotion from the viewer. I want the viewer to abandon their pre-conceptions and contemplate what I am suggesting. Through my acts and gestures, non representational images evolve resulting in celebrations of color and the exploration of surface and texture not found in traditional brushwork. As the painting looks back at the viewer, a conversation is begun and a relationship started, allowing one to mentally perceive what they cannot see with their eyes. Stu Chait
