SUMMARY:Paul Brahms: New Paintings
DESCRIPTION:It wouldn’t be summer in Maine without stunning new painti
 ngs of the iconic Maine coast by master artist Paul Brahms. Brahms is a 
 master painter with brush and pallet knife. With simple strokes\, he cap
 tures details and emotion. His sense of color is that of someone who has
  spent a lifetime looking and letting the colors reveal themselves with 
 all of their depth and nuance. ⁠\n⁠\nIn his own words “My artwork 
 is a way of expressing what I notice around me\, and what rises up withi
 n me. It’s a way to share my experience\, and bring joy and reassuranc
 e and surprise and other forms of life-sustaining concepts to others. I 
 aspire to be like the bee who tells his co-workers where the flowers are
  or a filmmaker who illuminates the tension in a scene. I want my work t
 o move\, to have atmosphere\, and to embody a searching\, questioning st
 ate of being\, but this requires meditation as much as agitation\, and I
  straddle this polarity often \,leaving a visual record of this struggle
 . Ultimately\, my painting is a meditation\, a yearning for intimate awa
 reness.”⁠
