The Journey: Recent Works by Stan Moeller
North Hampton, NH The Artist Eye presents The Journey, a solo exhibit of recent works by Stan Moeller, from August 20th to September 20th, 2009. The show will feature some of the trademark landscapes for which Moeller is known combined with figurative works, which have become his primary focus in recent years. There will an opening reception for the public and with the artist on Thursday, August 20th from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Moeller works in oils on panels and linen, painting “alla prima” (all at once) and working from studies done on location, “en plein air”. He has painted in Italy, France and Ireland as well as favorite places closer to his York home, such as Monhegan Island, off the coast of Maine.
Stan Moeller’s journey as an artist began with a major in Fine Art and Life Drawing at Western Michigan University. His interests have led him from the mountains and marshes of coastal New England to the ancient cities of Tuscany and back again to the figure. His recent works depict the inner journey of the figure: at work, in thought or in motion. Moeller said, “I try to capture the interior landscape the personality or intention of the figure doing ordinary tasks, such as setting a table, studying a piece in an Art Museum or running along a beach.”
Moeller’s paintings are represented by galleries from Naples, Florida to Santa Barbara, California and have been recently featured in National Art magazines, such as the June 2009 issue of American Art Collector, as well as Southwest Artist and International Artist Magazine. He has won several awards, including the Marine Environment Wildlife Award for Best Depiction of Wildlife in its Natural Habitat, in the 25th Annual International Marine Art Show, at The Maritime Gallery at the Mystic Seaport.
