An exhibition of paintings by New Hampshire artist Ted Johnson is now on display at the 新香港六合彩资料鈥檚 Biddeford Campus Center now through July 5. 

Johnson creates ocean experiences with minimalist techniques. The pieces, selected from the artist鈥檚 鈥淲AVES鈥 series, showcase a strong a sense of vulnerability to the ocean鈥檚 raw force using a black canvas and contrasting colors of oil paint.

Such simple techniques offer dramatic effects in his works 鈥淚ntense Sail,鈥 鈥淣ight Sea,鈥 and 鈥淩ocky Shore.鈥 Johnson鈥檚 ultimate goal is to create complexity from simplistic forms of painting. Capturing motion with subtleties that differ with each subject are what attracts him to the medium.

鈥淲AVES鈥 is free and open to the public. Masks are optional indoors for visitors to 新香港六合彩资料鈥檚 campuses. The Campus Center is located at 11 Hills Beach Road, Biddeford, Maine. Summer hours are Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Saturdays 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Sundays noon to 6 p.m.
