A profusion of greens and rust, artist Fernando Soler was inspired by Florida's natural landscape. Blues are flecked into the shadows reflecting the expansive soft blue sky. "The stillness of this landscape is only broken by the occasional sound of a lonely hawk searching for a mate and an easy meal," says Fernando.

"This old bait shop on Sarasota's City Island is a place that takes you back to a simpler time when live shrimp was the favorite bait for those who drifted the bay waters for speckled trout and other types of school fish," says Fernando. Part of his signature series of nautical scenes capturing the watercraft, wildlife and landscape of his native Florida. He regularly travels, making sketches, taking notes and shooting photographs to later reference in his studio. The result is detailed, intimate paintings that radiate the stunning light and tropical breezes of the Sunshine State.
About the Artist
Artist Fernando Soler illuminates the Florida coast with vibrant seascapes. Being immersed in fine arts, as well as having been a charter captain, Soler has always been drawn to the ocean. Any location that inspires him turns into a sketch, is taken to his studio, and is brought to life with acrylic and oil on canvas. "My paintings reflect nautical themes, and nature in general, with the impressionist color palette in mind." Fernando enjoys listening to jazz from the sixties and seventies to inspire his creative process. When he is not painting, you can find him golfing, visiting fine restaurants and pubs in the city of New Orleans, or playing jazz on his trumpet. Fernando's creations have been showcased in both New York and Florida. He is an alumnus of Ringling College of Art and Design.
