Joe Sampson

Sampson’s oeuvre has always been varied, and water is a frequent theme in his current focus on landscape painting. He is inspired by the shorelines and beaches of lakes and oceans, and the realistic renderings of these sites rise to the challenge of capturing the transitory qualities of light and shadow on moving water.

Moods are evoked through colour and composition. Silver Cloud places the viewer above the clouds, providing a glimpse of water far below. Rolling Waves depicts only a touch of sky on the horizon, while a large expanse of water in varying blues and greens leads up to a gentle wave curling on the sand in the foreground. Turbulence fills the canvas in Beach Foam, and one can practically hear the wave breaking in Glass Wave. One’s perspective is always changing.
