About the Item
Artist Comments
For years, artist Faye Vander Veer has been fascinated with painting fine dining establishments across Europe. In this quiet piece, she emphasizes the light and reflected color of the scene as the server prepares the dining room for service. "Even though the tablecloths are white, there is so much reflected color in them and in the table settings," observes Faye. "Notice how the light almost dances throughout the room as the server places the crystal wine glasses on the tables as a finishing touch."
About the Artist
Artist Faye Vander Veer seeks out moments with engaging narratives and captures them with an impressionist style. She describes herself as an observer of people living their day-to-day lives. Her goal is to offer viewers a look into her sensory memory while also prompting the beginning of a story. Faye always keeps her camera by her side, ready to capture reference material. "For me, each painting is an opportunity to explore my emotional reactions to the color and light I observe," says Faye. She enjoys being in her glass-walled studio surrounded by nature to inspire her creative process. When she is not putting paint on canvas, Faye can be found in nature, journaling or writing poetry. Her artwork has been showcased in both American Art Collector and Art of the West magazines.
