About the Item
Artist Comments
Michael concentrates on representing the landscape that surrounds his community along the South Carolina coast. He says there is an ever-changing palette of colors in the sky throughout the day that he seeks to incorporate. I can go to the same spot and shoot photos 10 different times and each image is unique, Michael explains.
About the Artist
South Carolina-based oil painter Michael Kennedy paints impressionist landscapes that capture the grandeur of the setting sun. From a young age, he has cultivated a deep fascination with color and drawing. After receiving a BFA in Graphic Design, he continued to study painting while working as a creative in advertising. Today, he focuses his attention on his oil paintings. For each piece, he begins by preparing his canvas with a thin wash of yellow ocher. Then, paints the layout and details with thick layers of paint, leaving the sky for last. Rather than depicting a specific location, his paintings are meant to convey moods from wonder and surprise, to solitude and peace.
