About the Item

Depicts Carole Garland reveling in a hot summer day at the Venice Beach. Colorful beach umbrellas shield the timid from the burning sun while sunbathers bask in the searing heat. Yellow and blue ribbons floating on the wind celebrate Venice’s chaos and its whimsy. To focus the figure of a preteen who stands sentinel, Garland fades out the foreground sunbather on right and obfuscates the crouching man on left. The artist leads us to the groups of mysterious standing and sitting figures in the shadows and beyond. Garland’s collection of figurative work speaks to a contemporary sensibility in her approach to painting, while expressing a curiosity about the human form and an irrepressible concern for the human spirit. Carole Garland graduated from Knox College, Galesburg, Ill., studied at the Chicago Art Institute and the University of the Americas in Mexico City. She has worked privately with artists Keith Finch and Ron Pekar, taken numerous workshops and was mentored by David Gallup, fine artist and former vice president of the California Art Club.

A Day at the Beach
By Carole Garland

Burning sun, waves lapping at the shore, the lingering scent of suntan lotion – it’’s an endless summer day at the beach. Carole Garland evokes the heat, wind and sand of a day along the Southern California coast. Swimmers and onlookers cool off in the Pacific waters waiting for the next surge or ripple.
