Artist, Painter, Courtney Bateman, Artist Reception, Silver Lake, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Beaches

I was looking forward to seeing Courtney’s paintings in an exhibit.  I must tell you that Courtney herself is one of Rehoboth’s daughters.  Grew up running around and swimming in this amazing coastal town.  Her paintings are sensitive to her growing up at the beach.

She is a talented artist pursuing her passion.  She is so creative and her smile and friendliness will win you over once you meet her.  But, wait, here she is.

dscn5781The painting on her right is called Dappled Dunes.  Acrylic on Cotton-Linen Blend – 26″ x 14″.  Scenery in its most pure form of technique, giving it an interpretive quality.  The colors stay bold and true to “straight out of the tube”.

dscn5782Here is Courtney with her creation of Love at First Sight – Acrylic on Cotton-Linen Blend – 29″ x 20″.  The Gloxinia flower symbolizes Love at First Sight and this traditionally small flower is enlarged to enhance this meaning.

The exhibit had a total of about 22 paintings.  I don’t have them all but I have enough in order for you to appreciate Courtney’s abilities as an artist.

Best Kind of Lonely – Acrylic on Canvas – 20″ x 15″.  This beach beckons to you from the trees; calling with its splendor and beauty.

Surfer – Acrylic on Canvas – 16″ x 12″.  This piece is a dream beach for the lone Surfer.

Beach Day – Acrylic on Canvas – 15″ x 20″.  Picture yourself sitting in Lynam’s finest enjoying a great beach day!! Anyone that has rented beach chairs in Rehoboth Beach knows Lynam’s; he is the one.

Pina Colada – Acrylic on Canvas – 36″ x 60″ x 1.5″.  Created from a study of microscopic views of this beverage.  Adapted into an optical illusion, which metamorphosed to reveal Butterflies.

dscn5800

Coca Cola – Acrylic on Canvas – 36″ x 60″ x 1.5″.  Created from study of a microscopic view of Coke Classic.  Adapted into a lotus flower.  Contrasting with the symbolism of purity, rebirth and divinity.

Secret – Acrylic & Soft Pastel on paper – 18″ x 24″.  Well manicured nails close around a metal ball, containing a tree.  The magic behind the mystery intrigues.  Making the piece “Pop Art with a side of the Surreal”.

Lily Sun – Acrylic on Canvas – 11″ x 14″ x 1.5.  This light drenched lily almost pales in comparison to the blazing sun, but maintains its own inner glow.

dscn5795

Blue Nasturtium – Acrylic on Canvas – 10″ x 12″ x 1.5″.  Blue Nasturtium is too cool for a plant known to have a peppery taste!!  Used in WWII as a pepper substitute.  The blue tones cool down a “hot plant”.

The next 2 paintings were grouped together.

The first one is Garden View – Acrylic on Canvas – 10″ x 10″ x 1.5″.  This give the viewer the chance to be sitting in the garden, looking through the plants.  It has a strong play on color and size.

The second is called Beach Bloom – Acrylic on Canvas – 12″ x 12″ x 1″.  Flowers?  Umbrellas? Pinwheels? Fireworks?  All of the above and more.  These optical illusions are fun and a great POP of color.

dscn5792

Jane – Acrylic on Canvas – 36″ x 48″ x 1.5″ – Dedicated to my Grandmother, Jane, AkA – Gramsy.  She supported my love of art as much as my parents.  The lily symbolizes purity and is a Chinese emblem for Mother.

Micro Flower – Acrylic on Canvas board – 8″ x 10″.  This textural “up close and personal” Orchid begs to pop out!!

An artist is someone who uses bravery, insight, creativity and boldness to challenge status quo.  s. godin

The artist takes it personally.
