Acerca del libro
John Whalley earned his BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design ('76) and is noted for his stunning realism, where his masterful depictions of time-worn “orphaned objects”are visual meditations in which he explores texture, patinas and the qualities of light. Whalley also enjoys creating small narratives with his drawings and paintings, calling to the viewer’s imagination. He draws much of his inspiration from the curated collections of objects that he and his wife, Ellen, have gathered on forays to many of Maine’s ubiquitous antique shops, flea markets and yard sales. Whalley also finds for his subjects objects of nature such as seashells, pine cones and fruit, as well as the Maine landscape.
John’s work is included in many collections, including in Maine - The Portland Museum of Art, The Bates Museum of Art, and The Colby College Museum of Art in Waterville; as well as The Museum of Biblical Art, Dallas, Texas; The Puratos World Heritage Library, Saint Vith, Belgium; The Georgia Museum of Art, Athens; and The Kemper Museum of Art, Kansas City.
