Haykin’s work will be featured at Cocco-Salem Gallery on Duval Street in late February. Save the Date! – Opening Reception, Tuesday, February 23
Longtime resident and painter of the Florida Keys returns for a TSKW residency and workshop like no other! Acclaimed artist Michael Haykin will lead this three-day plein air opportunity, designed for advanced painters and professional artists. Based on the tides and local waters, and using boats for transportation, painters will be working in remote, beautiful locations in the Lower Keys: exposed sand flats, the back country, and mangrove areas.
Emphasis will be placed on careful observation of elements of the landscape, and painters will be encouraged to extract and isolate the changing moments and events of the site during the course of each painting session.
“I am a painter whose interest in observing the changing moment provides the structure for my work. While my paintings are composed with formal considerations, the focus is on the changing nature of my subject matter. The surface of my paintings are built of micro-layers of pigment allowing light and atmosphere to subtly shift, giving the image a shimmering translucency.” -Michael Haykin
Michael Haykin was born in 1954 and raised in Munich, Germany, while his father was in the military service for the United States. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. His lifetime of extensive travel influences his work.
In addition to reviews in Art in America and other publications, regular solo and two-person shows at galleries, Haykin’s work has been exhibited at the Holter Museum of Art in Helena, Montana, and the Yellowstone Art Museum in Billings, Montana. He has been represented by Helander Gallery in Palm Beach, Florida; Works Gallery in Southampton, New York; Limbo Gallery in New York City; and Holly Solomon Gallery in New York City.
