"Living in Florida" - mixed mediums on polymer panel, by John Wilmer ©2006

The subject matter is drawn from the coastline across the wetlands and pine forests to the county's western St. Johns River boundaries. Images include visual references from early surfing culture to more whimsical reflections that recall early post card and advertising design.

Landscape is the predominant theme, rendered in a variety of mixed media including photographic and digital imagery blended with acrylic paint and low relief applications. The collection of work reveals the artist's true passion combined with a playful sense of humor concerning Volusia County, Florida.
