| Event Description |
The painting exhibition, THE ART OF CLIFFORD BAILEY, is held in conjunction with the opening
of the second “THURSDAYS ON THE COAST” the unique and immensely popular visual art
event in Carlsbad Village, Carlsbad.
Internationally renowned artist Clifford Bailey was born in 1969. He graduated in 1991 from the
New York School of Visual Arts (SVA) with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. Now living in Los Angeles, he
has gone on to develop an imaginative and highly individualized style of painting.
Mr. Bailey has a great understanding of music and compelling compositions. His paintings evoke
the era and ambiance of the roaring twenties, but with a modern twist; from his portraits of
musicians in fine-tailored suits to his sparse and dramatic street scenes, his work continues to be
admired and acquired by collectors around the world, for more than 20 years now.
Clifford Bailey about his art:
"Music has always inspired me. When I see the faces of people under the spell of music, I have
an urge to capture their expressions on canvas. There is an emotional intensity I find fascinating.
And then there is the rhythm of painting itself, the way the brush slaps and strokes the canvas,
the color combinations and shapes of compositions and form; it's all music to me."
The artist will be in attendance to
demonstrate and discuss his work. Admission is free, and everyone is invited to attend. |
