Michael Orwick paints oils that are glowing dialogues of light. He has spent the last year exploring the work of the pre-impressionists of Barbizon painters who were the first to paint outside so as to truly study light and air and how it interacted and unveiled the physical world. Michael Orwick allows his passion for nature to work its way into each piece. He records the poetry of place, hinting at the mood through atmospheric brush work and serene colors, merging experience and shared sentiment, creativity and a feeling of place. “It is what I leave untold that I hope grabs you”’ says Orwick, “it is the quiet spaces that allow our brains to wander and wonder. I invite you to become part of the paintings, and make their stories your own.”
