Tally Forbes at the gallery at Clark's Cafe for February
"Shadows on Rocks" by Tally Forbes Watercolor
Tally Forbes - Land Shapes
February, 2008
At the Art On Rotation Gallery at Clark’s Café
The emergence of landscape from a series of overlapping geometric shapes is a very old idea. Geology teaches us that new shapes bubble up from deep within the earth, that large land masses ram into each other creating mountain and valley shapes; and that water cuts into the masses creating shapes that become steep slopes, ponds, and flat plains.
Human beings do the best they can to grow what they need on these overlapping shapes creating interesting patterns of their own on the landscape.
This series of paintings explore how simple geometric shapes interact to create the landscapes we love and must work hard to preserve.

Artist Statement
I am an artist and a scientist. Does that make me a Renaissance man? Well, maybe not, but it does keep me busy. Several large universities taught me to be a scientist, but my mother taught me to paint. I paint in a high energy style, and I prefer abstract art in bright happy colors. I also paint Cape Cod landscapes. I am particularly fond of the colors in sky, the ocean and the sunset.
Call or e-mail AOR Gallery curator at artrotationgallery@gmail.com and I’ll paint something just for you. You choose the color and the size, and I’ll create a painting that will fit in perfectly with your décor.
