Title: The Basil Farm
This is an original oil Italy painting done by fine artist Christopher Clark. This painting was done during my painting workshop here in Phoenix at the Jerry's Artarama in Tempe. This oil painting class was focused on using the solid fundamental art techniques of drawing, values, color, and edges in a real painting application.
About this scene: This is from the farm I stayed at in Imperia, Italy. Their primary crop was basil, which they used to make pesto. With a whole field of basil growing to maturity, the aroma was intoxicating. And after harvesting it, your hands smelled like delicious basil for hours afterward.

Northwest Crowfoot Light Rail Transit Station

The Color of Snow, was inspired by the molecular structure of snow flakes and the concept that the beauty of small elements bring meaning to our daily lives. The snowflake appears against a brilliant sunset. Floating abstractions of snow are carried through six glass panels in the light rail station façade and then translated through the two bridge crossings approaching the station.

material: cast pewter/ acrylic spheres/ stainless cable
architect: Fentress Bradburn Architects Ltd.
site: Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
commissioned by the Port of Seattle
Hanging within the central space of the Seattle Tacoma International Airport terminal floats Landing, a sculptural meditation on nature and regional culture. Comprised of hundreds of precisely suspended cast metal elements, Landing employs a sort of three-dimensional Pointillism, wherein numerous small sculptures coalesce into large composite forms.
Four distinct groups of elements give rise to the image of a Snow Goose landing in the rain. The goose itself consists of smaller waterfowl in five different flight positions. Native Salmon comprise the reflection of the bird. Various sized acrylic spheres create the illusion of rainfall. And sculptures symbolic of Northwest culture-- ranging from coffee mugs to umbrellas-- are arrayed across the lower third of the composition.
The subject matter is simultaneously; pastoral, depicting an especially elegant moment of natural avian activity; cultural, relating to manmade activities associated with the Northwest; and philosophical, a meditation on the link between Man and Nature.
It can also be read as slyly meteorological, as the glittering transparency of the rain and water surface elements puts a positive spin on the region's reputation for precipitation.

collaboration with Stuart Schechter
material: cast metal/stainless cable
architect: A. Epstein & Sons., Chicago, IL
project team: Andrea Scofield, Chris Taylor, Sarah Rodrigo
site: Midway Airport, Chicago, IL
commissioned by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs
Rara Avis is an epic suspended sculpture poetically linking natural and manmade aviation.
Comprised of thousands of precisely suspended pewter elements, the artwork employs a three-dimensional Pointillism wherein numerous small sculptures coalesce into a large evanescent composite form.
Travelers approaching the center of Midway Airport’s new passenger terminal will perceive a monumental image of a cardinal. Upon closer examination a perceptual shift occurs as the large avian form reveals itself to be composed of over 1800 small aircraft.
A wide spectrum of these component elements is rendered, ranging from Leonardo-inspired designs to 19th century balloons to classic passenger airliners to 21st century spacecraft.
Over fifty different aircraft are represented, all distinct, and all coming together to render a macrocosmic image of the Illinois state bird.
