A Means of Communication

with John Brandon Sills, Plein Air Easton Alumnus
Plein Air Easton Podcast

Recorded live at the 2020 Plein Air Easton event, host Tim Weigand interviews artist John Brandon Sills on his philosophy on creativity and the connectivity of all things and his experience at the pandemic version of our beloved festival.

*As this episode was recorded live during the festival, the sound quality is affected by the sounds of the occupied gallery.

"John paints nature in all its forms, choosing to emphasize those aspects that create an awareness of the environment. Toward this end, his landscapes exhibit the sensitivity that urges the viewer to appreciate and recognize the spiritual aspects of the Earth and actively participate in its protection and preservation. John believes that art is form of communication, so he places a high value on the inspiration behind the creation of a painting. In this respect John encourages young artists to look within themselves for the most beautiful vision that they as an artist can conceive of and courageously offer it to world to enrich and raise the consciousness of the viewer. This meditative process guarantees that the artist will produce the most sublime art of which they are capable."
