Carole GarlandThe Jump from Moon Lake Pier2024
2024
About the Item
Happy times -- nothing more joyful, adventurous or as
freeing as jumping into cold lake water on a hot summer's day. Everyone is
drenched, shivering, but going back in- one more time. Plugged ears, runny
noses, goosebumps and soaked bathing suits - what could be more fun?
Hamburgers, hotdogs, potato salad and ice cream await the survivors.
Another July day at Moon Lake.
Artist Carole Garland captures figures in motion, enjoying the movement of
arms and legs thrusting forward. The leap into the air of the three figures
gives momentum to the work, while the lower standing figures give pause.
Garland keeps the background woodland abstracted so as not to distract from
the figures.
This 40"x30" Oil on Wood Panel has wood sides which can serve as a frame.
The back is wired for easy hanging.
Carole Garland studied figure drawing at the Art Institute of Chicago and
has taken workshops with Fine Art Oil painters Frank Serrano, Jeff Horn,
Calvin Liang and others. She is grounded in classical painting traditions
while David Gallup, her latest "influencer", has encouraged
experimentation. Garland has shown in many Southern California venues and
is in numerous art collections in Los Angeles and throughout the country.

My painting is an inquiry. I make images as a way of responding to experiences that are important to me. Experiences that help me to understand why I’m in this world often happens when I am outside in large open spaces.
Painted images act as a tool. I respond to the spaces my art suggests. That response is usually non-verbal. I am interested in the experience of non-duality that “getting lost” in big spaces can sometimes produce for me. The paintings have gone through a range of artistic treatments with the recent years seeing a focus on space, light, textures, atmosphere and distance.
My landscape paintings are made from memory, not from on-site drawings or photographs. I use memory as a filtering agent to remove non-essential visual elements. When a work is successful, it must have a sense of poetry.
