Light and geometry are the two themes that run through the whole of David Gloman\u2019s paintings, whether he\u2019s working on a watercolor of the Southwestern desert landscape or an oil painting of a swimming hole in the woods.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe role that light and weather play in an agricultural place and the grid like geometry of the fields are two elements always present in my work,\u201d wrote Mr. Gloman in his online artist statement. \u201cI paint directly outdoors and the paintings are distilled visual experiences of specific places.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Gloman, who has been a featured artist in previous Grubbs Gallery seasons<\/a>, returns to the Williston Northampton School campus on October 1 for a show of his latest work, \u201cRocks and Water.\u201d<\/p>\n

The paintings in the exhibit\u2014created through the\u00a0in-nature style that Mr. Gloman has perfected through his use of a truck-based mobile studio\u2014feature such locations as the Green Mountain National Forest, Chesterfield Gorge, Dead Branch of the Westfield River, and Chester, MA.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe paintings are an attempt to capture the particulars of a specific place: time of day, weather, topography, and season in the simplest painting language possible,\u201d Mr. Gloman noted recently. \u201cI was seeking out places where there was interplay of rock and water: permanence and fluidity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Gloman is the artist in residence at Amherst College and offers Saturday art classes in the fall and winter for talented high school artists. He has previously worked with such Williston student artists as Emma Kaisla \u201915.<\/p>\n

\u201cRocks and Water\u201d will be on display in the Grubbs Gallery from October 1-29. A reception for the artist will be October 10 from 1:00-3:30 p.m. in the gallery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
