Tomas Gibbons Medium: Collage, Printmaking, Watercolor PO Box 5176 Mt. Crested Butte, CO 81225 970-349-7185 email: tomsart@crestedbutte.net Website: www.paintingsdirect.com The desert is about extremes, enduring and enjoying intense wind, heat, cold, sun, clouds, rain, snow, and beauty beyond description. I have always been inspired by the deserts ability to be incredibly vast and intimate at the same time. "Emptiness in the desert is the fullness of space, a fullness of space that eliminates time. The desert is time, exposed time, geologic time. One needs time in the desert to see." From Terry Tempest Williams "Red, Passion and Patience in the Desert." An exploration of the desert, Its magic, its vulnerability, and its importance. Why, after spending time there and collecting sand on every surface of your body, the desert becomes a part of your soul. Through my work, I hope to capture and preserve nature's beauty. These expressions are meant to be appreciated by many generations to come and somehow convey the power and vulnerability." Thomas Gibbons Artists of the West Elks featuring Crested Butte and Gunnison Colorado area art and artists |
