Signed Original Oil on Canvas by Arnold Desmarais

BRILLIANT PIECE WITH A BEAUTIFUL COLOR PALETTE. COLLECTIBLE ORIGINAL OIL ON CANVAS, HAND SIGNED BY THE ARTIST, THIS ARTWORK COMES GALLERY WRAPPED. Arnold's paintings are narratives that tell stories of a coastal environment with subtlety and understanding that only comes from a lifetime by the sea. Fond childhood memories of many idyllic summers on Block Island, RI, provided a treasure-trove of images for artistic seascapes which whisper of gentler times. Although he put himself through school by holding one-man watercolor shows in Maine and New Hampshire, he now works exclusively in oil from his studio and home. Drawing on his background in jewelry design enabled Arnold to create interest with even the simplest subject. His experiences with color and light in the fashion industry are skillfully interpreted in his compelling compositions, which evoke emotions of comfortable familiarity and serenity.
