Art of the Landscape

Oregon artist Michael Orwick creates oil paintings that are glowing dialogues

of light. 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. It's the quiet space that allows our brains to wander and wonder. I invite

you to become part of the paintings, and make their stories your own."
