WICKWIRE
fine art/folk art in Hendersonville, NC, Features Works by Jim
Carson
WICKWIRE fine art/folk art in Hendersonville,
NC, is pleased to present original oil paintings in a fresh, painterly
style by Jim Carson. Carson's bright, vibrant paintings will be
on view from Sept. 1 - 30, 2005.
Carson has been painting in oil and acrylic for over 15 years.
His colorful works are described as "fresh and painterly".
In July 2003, after practicing law for 31 years in Macon, GA,
Carson moved to Saluda, NC, where he continues his love of painting
on a full time basis. He prefers painting en plein air.
"Once you see the true colors in reality,
painting from any other source does not inspire the same emotion,"
says Carson. "To be outside and be so focused on your work
is a meditation experience that is difficult to describe."
There is a true simplicity and freshness to Carson's work that
distinguishes it, and gives it a character all its own. He has
won awards in every juried show that he has entered, and his work
shows in banks, corporate and private galleries from California
to Florida.
