Words of inspiration by Trever Byron

In art circles it is said:

'To exploit the freshness and light which are the special virtues of watercolor demands a sureness and spontaneity that are not acquired easily, if at all'

I have strived all my life to acquire through constant study and practice the special virtues of the medium

I have painted prodigiously since childhood

This yearn to draw and paint was innate from as early as four years of age

And has continued

Escalating to present times

To capture the moments

Of a landscape

Seascape or marine life

Visually and emotionally is the ultimate goal of my work

Painting nature has always been my joy

Experiencing nature moves me

And the movement is what I always try to capture in my paintings.

Reveling in the beauty of nature's colors

Bathed in sunlight and mirroring the same on my paper and canvas

Creating dramatizations of lights, shadows and reflections in water

Convey and create emotional responses with lasting impressions on my viewers

I am also canvasing for the preservation of nature

And hopefully trying to awaken this joy

This need to preserve and conserve nature in my fellow men
