    Description

    The human ego is such that we see the entire world in terms of our scheduled plans and desires. In “(W)hen the fish turn in, few people remain,” the artist depicts the end of a day from the perspective of the activity of the fish population. The fish are nowhere to be seen in the work, but we feel their absence or inactivity from the very few fishing boats in the ocean, the darkening skies and the small number of people on the beach. Only the child digging in the sand seems oblivious to the day’s end. She keeps digging for something that probably is not there. A slightly unsettling or unnatural feeling is created by the child’s parents being nowhere in sight. They have gone home like the fish, leaving the child alone with the end of the day.

    Concept

    Graphic arts stands in the middle of photography, painting, and language. It borrows from all three, but what gifts does it give back? About cinema, Fellini suggested that if you are moved by a particular film, you don't need an explanation. And if you are not spellbound, no explanation can suffice.

    Skyler's approach to his work is mysterious in the same way. He draws from different painting traditions and uses his own photographs, acrylic, oil, pastels and digital painting to create an aesthetic experience with humor, wonder, and social commentary.

    The artist often creates digital paintings in the magic realism tradition to catch and sustain the viewer's attention. He intends each work to be crafted carefully and, hopefully, resonate on a semantic level. Moving pixels around the screen to combine digital art and painting, there is much to enjoy and ponder!

    A representative work is "Bellflower, Love Awaited," a graphic art composition with fine paint stroke detailing. The composition size is A3.

    Bellflowers are common all over the Northern Hemisphere. Accordingly, the flowers can be found in Japan, where the artist lives, but the flower is also widespread in Europe and North America.

    The flower usually has a symbolic association with gratitude, constancy, support, or romance. As such, Skyler uses the image as a motif to pay tribute to all those who hold on to their love, even when the loved one is far away in place or time.
