Indiana Artisan painter Craig Whitten uses the word spontaneity in conversations about nature, art and the way he views both.
The spontaneity of watercolor is a perfect correlation to the spontaneity of nature to me, says the Lafayette-based artist whose career started in landscape architecture. Hes well known among art enthusiasts for his crisp, clean koi and bird paintings. Everything I do with my art reflects something that has touched me at some point, be it from a standpoint of pure awe at what nature shows us, or something I found comical. It all comes from a place of an emotional experience.
Talk to Craig about his work as he paints during the May 14 Carmel Arts & Design District gallery walk.
