Collection: Wickstrom, Derrick Gray
Derrick Gray Wickstrom is beginning his third year of a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at NSCAD University as an almost full time mature student. Before starting his university studies at NSCAD, he attended a number of years at night school through the extended studies program there. He didn’t know until he was as old as jam that these ways of thinking, taught at the university, worked the very best. Hard, hard work, full of concentration and frustration as his view shifted with the experience. He has learned, art should be trained in and used for everything we do. You get to have that great joy, seeing in that brand new light and day.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Water laying about gives me the sense all is well in the world. As a new artist I am making a world of water laying about in paintings. I do this for the comfort, for the reminder and example and to know water's work. I also do it so I can rise in the morning to go looking for it. The rest is accident.
