About Juan Corbétt
This is a travel journal of fictional artist Juan Corbett, (pronounced Core-Bay). International man of intrigue and merry prankster. Woven together are pages directly from his writings. Narratives of the paintings he’s done of the people, of the places he has visited. “Faces of the Places”. First hand accounts of activities and events that may have or not taken place for this romanic adventurer. “One must look to discover, to see beyond the surface.” Lets go explore. Giddy-Up.
Traveling the Continent in search of beauty, humor and colorful souls. Always working towards solid compositions and design, ever mindful of aesthetically important components of space, light, texture, tone, shape. A desire to create images that are insightful, expressive, interesting, entertaining and visually appealing. These artworks and writings are closer to folk art than fine art.
A quote from a Patron of the Arts regarding Juan Corbétt’s work; “Considering paintings within the context of a fictional painter as a character, this context restructures the paintings and lends a certain relevance to them within the context of a larger conceptual body of work.”
These journal entries on the World wide web are a prelude to the forth coming book from the artist Juan Corbétt. “Faces of the place.” this self-published Artist book will be a limited edition sought after by collectors. Release date is targeted for the Summer of 2011.
