Rush Brown

Rush Brown: while his Artistic concerns are diverse and lead him in many directions, much of his painting centers on observations of his immediate environment. Currently paintings of Casco Bay represent the intimate, visual relationship between our lovely city and the “ocean seas.” He often paints the harbor seen both from atop Munjoy Hill and at water level, where he spends hours enjoying the diverse and lively activity of boats in their varying pursuits and proportions. The effort concentrates on the attempt to balance or even transcend literal representation and capture the glorious ambience that fills his heart and drives his life’s pursuits.
