Reflection of boats, Martinique
While scouting locations for a Nautica fashion shoot in Martinique I saw this wonderful play of color. The color was from boats in the marina reflecting onto the surface of the water.

I love the feeling of this image. It is as if I am small and moving among the tulips looking up at the sun coming down through the petals and leaves.

Can Beauty be a Political Statement?
Blue rods of light
I speak for myself. Civility in America’s public arena is under challenge through crass, vulgar and denigrating speech. The growth in tolerance and egalitarianism over the past few decades is facing a setback through intolerant language and actions. When I watch tv news, read newspapers and listen to the radio I come away with the sense that America is in a dark threatening time.
As an artist what can I do to contribute to a more civil, tolerant, inclusive and positive society?
Can beauty be a counter to ugly language and behavior? I believe it can. The laws of science and human behavior support the principle of balancing forces. I offer beautiful images as an artistic and political counterbalance to the ugliness. I invite you to join me in the affirmation of life as we strive for refinement in our lives. What we visualize will have an impact on our attitudes and behavior. This is not a naive call for putting our heads in the sand or pretending that there aren’t a multitude of challenges to the common good. For me it is a recognition of the negative and a choice to turn toward the positive. In the face of darkness and ugliness, light and beauty is a revolutionary action.

Study of color and light
Color and light along with shape, form, texture and shadow are elements of abstraction that intrigue me. This is a study of pure light and color. To see more visit the color and light gallery at WayneEastep.com
A guest brought these tulips to a tea party my mother-in law Reba was having at our house.
