About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist John Jaster depicts a crowded summer coastline at low tide filled with tourists of all ages. Strollers gather at the water's edge enjoying the beach. The crystal blue water gently rolls in across the sand while children's laughter competes with the cries of seagulls.
About the Artist
Artist John Jaster paints in a style he describes as realistic impressions, capturing colorful views of his adventures across the Americas. "People always ask me how I get such deep brilliant colors," says John. "The answer is layers. Since acrylic paint dries mostly transparent, it requires multiple layers of paint to build up to a specific color. With the right lighting that depth of layering is like sunshine glistening through clear water." In college, John felt a pull towards computer science and pursued a career in software architecture. Although the two paths may seem unrelated, John says his work in software strongly influences his artwork in terms of distilling complex systems without losing the magic and wonder. Today, John works from a large home studio with a fireplace, lots of natural light, and jazz playing in the background. Since 2010, John’s paintings have been displayed in over 90 juried exhibitions and published in leading art magazines and books.

Artist Comments
A child flies through the air, embraced by her mother. Laughter fills the atmosphere as she feels the wind in her hair. With arms outstretched, the girl feels as though she is one with flight. "This is a poetic painting of a young girl being swung around to mimic the surrounding birds," explains artist Kip Decker.About the Artist
