Lost to Time, Original Painting

Artist Comments
A weathered yellow cottage with a red roof stands alone on the prairie, surrounded by wildflowers and a rustic fence. Dark clouds gather overhead, adding a sense of nostalgia and mystery. Once home to a war veteran and his childhood sweetheart, the house now holds only the memories of their love. The scene takes inspiration from an abandoned home artist Art Clark saw while hiking in Utah.

About the Artist
Artist Art Clark paints quiet rural scenes that reimagine the past with a sense of nostalgia and mystery. “When I see a scene that intrigues me, my imagination transforms it into what I wish it could be—a forgotten relic in the woods, a mountaintop, or a lone structure lost in the prairie,” says Art. He began painting in 2017 after years as a landscape photographer, initially inspired by an episode of Paint This With Jerry Yarnell on PBS. Largely self-taught, he honed his craft through close observation of admired artists, eventually developing a style that balances storytelling with expressive brushwork. His studio is a simple yet creative space—just an easel, a supply cart, and perfect lighting. It doubles as his music room, where his electric guitar makes sure the neighbors know he’s home. Outside of painting, Art is a certified health coach, a woodworker, and a photographer with a deep love for Mexican food.
