About the work
There is a brief moment at the beginning of each day where the blacks and grays of night just begin to give way to the true colors of day. In this painting I study that transition. The hostel has yet to become beige and the lighthouse and fences are soon to become white. Our brains tend to pre-determine the daylight colors during these moments and I found that exploring the transitional colors that represent the whites and beiges of daylight was actually quite difficult. What we see nonetheless is a white lighthouse and a beige hostel even though they are painted in blues and grays.

about the artist
byRobert Deem
Windsor, CA
A gallery owner once told me, "Paint what you love and not what you think people will buy and they will be drawn to your work." Since then I have tried to follow his advice. At the same time I realized that what attracts me to other artists' work is the love and care that I see in it. I live and paint in Pfafftown, North Carolina and in Windsor, California spending about half the year in each. I do portraiture, pen and ink, but mostly oil on canvas.
