Blue Sky Thinking” by Steve Perrault
Avran Fine Art
Featured Painter: Steve Perrault
Perrault’s “landscapes” of the interior world of the human person are a distinct aesthetic in contemporary metaphoric realism and speaks the language of our times. Architectural metaphors of light and darkness, containment and expansion, inside and outside, promote a sense of place and hope, while asking questions concerning passages, boundaries and vision. These harmonious environments of modesty, honesty, order and calm, allow spontaneous insights and moments of introspection.
As a man who understands a sense of calling, Perrault believes that art is his true calling and the best way to use his gifts to communicate with others. The spaces he creates are free from distractions and exhibit a purposeful pursuit of the minimum. The beauty of simplicity brings the freedom necessary in a search for what lies beneath and above the human person.
