About the work
The rural surroundings northwest of Winston-Salem, North Carolina are a rich source of both cultural and geographical inspiration for my work. Pilot Mountain is distinctive and memorable and is a frequent subject of artists in this locale. I was no less inspired to paint Pilot Mountain and was compelled to include some additional regionally-specific commentary to set my version apart. Tobacco still fuels some of the economy here and yet, as the tin shack suggests, maybe its time is coming to an end.

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.
