About The Artwork
"Italian Daydream" is the sixth in my "Alpine Europe" series. All of the pieces in this series are among my very favorites because they represent actual experiences that were entrenched in my memory as I worked for so many hours in their re-creation. My Alpine Europe trip was fantastic and I will always cherish the memories. This exhilarating view (believe it or not) was from a photo that I shot at a rest stop while traveling through Northern Italy on a brisk, nippy morning in early May. I was standing in the tall grass and wildflowers just off the highway shoulder. While taking my photos, I paused and just gazed for moment. I found myself intoxicated by the vision. I thought of how cool it would be to live in this valley or someplace like it. I envisioned myself with a cappuccino on a chilly morning in my favorite chair on the deck of my villa taking in the majestic artwork of our creator. As my daydream continued, I thought; I could make it happen … this is something that I can do. Then I began to think about all the things that I would miss about living where I do in Florida. After awhile, reality set in and my fantasy was over; reduced to just another treasured memory. Back to the highway and the next adventure.

Art and the natural world have been the driving forces that have shaped Jerrys life and career. Self-taught, Jerry can not remember a time when he wasnt painting, studying art and the great artists, or developing an affinity and never-ending infatuation with the phenomenal beauty of Nature.Collectors of Jerry Sauls work appreciate the fine detail, perspective and imaginative use of light simulation with which he portrays an innate understanding of his chosen subjects. As I see it, the challenge to me as an artist, is not only to paint nature in all her glory and diversity, but also to capture the emotion a scene evokes and incorporate that emotion into the mixing of paint on my palette and into my brushstrokes as the paint is applied to the canvas. Detail, color and texture are as important to my work, as light and the elements are to nature.When planning a new work of art, I like to think about something I have experienced, and how the image can be influenced by natural elements like light and weather. Often, I will begin working with a particular image in my mind, and as I progress, wonderful things seem to happen, transforming my visual image as it is passed onto the canvas. As a result, the completed work is sometimes very different from my original vision.
