Clarence King lives on a farm just outside Cambridge, New York.
Lately, after having divided his artistic attention between still
life and landscape, King has taken almost exclusively to drawing
his subjects from the fields, woodlots and hedgerows that surround
his home. "I usually start these paintings on site," says
King, "working in a fast, expressive manner. I finish them
in the studio using a more deliberate, reflective approach."
His primary focus is to emphasize the formal and emotional potential
of each scene while investigating the evocative possibilities of
the ever- changing seasons, the weather, and the geometries imposed
on the terrain by generations of farming. |
