MONTE LAVINE, Artist & Designer - THE 'ART OF SEEING'
Monte thinks of himself as a Visualizer. Throughout his life (childhood, education, career, avocation) he has used drawing and painting as a means of capturing simple events and unique experiences. When he's attracted to 'a scene' that visually projects compelling qualities, his creative nature often kicks in and he's moved to capture and preserve what he sees. A combination of enticing forms, shapes, textures, contrasts, colors or values may beckon him to compose an early visual. He interprets what he 'sees and feels' about the subject or scene . . . retaining it all in preparation for a future watercolor.
Creating a finished painting like those displayed in Monte's portfolio is a profound experience. His subject matter varies broadly. He leaves the specific application of his work (for either personal, residential, and/or commercial interiors) to the discretion of the viewer.
"Everyone has an innate sense for achieving very personal levels of satisfaction in what they see. I define how I view our world through my Art . . . expressing my emotions visually . . . emanating from how I relate to my experiences".
Monte Lavine resides in Pittsford, New York.
