About this artwork
This large-scale woodblock print places the individual amidst the constantly moving immensity of sea and sky. A small figure almost lost in the scene, anchored to the earth but feeling the pull of the waves and the wind.

« I am fascinated by the world around me. Color, light, movement, and patterns of movement. Subtle shifts and swells of color, ephemeral, and always changing. »
Carolee Jakes is an American artist who has exhibited her works nationally and in Greece. In the space that exists between representation and abstraction, she combines screen and woodblock printing, as well as painting techniques to further explore that visual continuum. The key elements in Jakes' compositions include movement, patterns, and shifting colors. She begins her painting process by oil washing, to "set up the color", adding more intense paints as she continues.
