Waiting for the Pool to Open
By Adam Mysock
Located in New Orleans, LA
after: William Bradford's "Scene in the Arctic" (c. 1880) and Peder Severin Kroyer "Boys Bathing at Skagen, Summer Evening" (1899)
Framed 11h x 13.75w in
Living in a house which sits about 5 feet below sea level, I find myself thinking about rising sea levels a lot. There’s a great possibility that the home where my wife and I have begun our family will be underwater centuries from now. Conversely, swimming has always been a passion of mine – my wife and I even met on a swim team early in our teenage years. In trying to find the silver lining to global warming drowning our home, I can look for solace in the fact that there’ll be more places to go swimming when the seas overtake our coastal areas.
There’s an innocence in Kroyer’s boys – and the concept of children swimming...

By Adam Mysock
Located in New Orleans, LA
Full title: "And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, 'Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward'"
After: “In the Fields” by Eastman Johnson (1880) and “The Sacrifice of Moses” by Massimo Stanzione (1629)
Framed: 12h x 17.50w in
This piece is about redirection. While inserting Lincoln into Eastman Johnson’s In the Fields, it became quite apparent that emulating Johnson’s paint handling would make it quite difficult to capture a likeness. I needed to clarify Lincoln’s face in order to give him an identity. To overcome the obvious stylistic discrepancies, bizarre elements of Massimo Stanzione’s The Sacrifice of Moses were inserted to pull attention right, most specifically the pointing Moses. Baseball player Pat Burrell (of the 2010 World Series Champion San Francisco Giants...
