Elliott "Ed" Edeslon

"Ed deems himself an "exploratory" artist. He works with water color, traditional oils, water-soluble oils, and acrylics. Ed has shown his work at the SCAA gallery, and had a one-man show at the Valencia Library. He was commissioned to do a painting of a scene from "The Sting", and a portrait of a pet cat. He was also commissioned to create a mosaic chair. Last year, he sold two mosaic birdhouses at the College of the Canyon's art gallery show. He continues to work on an outdoor mural."

"Jacob"
Pensively anticipates his next mischievous adventure. He is painted with the intent to create the vibrant skin and hair of a child in both shadow and light.

"Family"
I enjoy the fluidity and richness of oils,
blending them together and concentrating on soft linear lines.

"Fireflies"
Illuminates the darkness with the iridescence and speed of the flying insects one finds on a humid summer evening.

"Daytime In Spring Woods"

Expressed with a palate knife and brush. A bright, fanciful interplay of insects,
plant growth, and water.

"Cape Cod"
One summer, on a boat ride from mid-Cape to Nantucket, this peaceful scene of the boats docked at a sandspit and in front of an old boat shack caught my interest. I took many photos to use as reference. With complete abandon, not worrying about details, I went on to produce the painting using watercolors. I think I caught the tranquility of the moment very well.
