Up and Away (left), is one of six recently 'signed off' Newberry works produced since his move to New York."The energy of New York," he says, "is influencing my art in dramatic ways; I am exploring color, light, and composition possibilities."
About this piece he says, "My favorite part of the set up for this still-life was the brightness of the white silk against the brilliant yellow linen...
"I think it turned out to be a pleasing yet dynamic composition. I also painted this in a technique of working from light to dark. I started with sketching in the oil the silk and then moved progressively on to the darker colors; this technique facilitated a very luminous quality."

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
