Tamblyn Gawley:

I am exploring the way light and color play upon and through a single tree.  I am interested in each individual tree as a being; as portraits rather than landscapes.  My work strives for a balance between illusionistic, built-up paint and thinner, rougher areas that show initial layers of the underpainting.  In this way, my paintings respond to the elements of Nature.  The raw spaces reveal a history of the painting, resembling the way you can look at a tree and see the growth patterns.  The growth of the painting itself is presented, as if it is still in the process of emerging.
