"I was that kid you could always find turning over
rocks in streams, looking for what wonders nature would disclose to me,"
says Greenslade. His curiosity about the natural world, led him to a life as
scientist and organizational executive. Now in retirement, Dr. Greenslade is
again doing what he did when he was ten years old -- turning over rocks and
sculpting and painting the wonders that nature discloses.
Visitations: A Nature-Lover’s Journal is the
place where you can capture your own discoveries in your garden, on your walks
through your special places, or just in your reveries. Greenslade’s newest book
is a collection of his nature-inspired paintings and original poems, coupled
with spaces to daily record your experiences in your garden and special natural
places.
Along with his new book, Greenslade will exhibit a selection
of his artwork at the Jewel. His organic sculptures and paintings, derived from
a life-long love of nature and mythology, have a new look and feel.
Greenslade’s work is highly stylized yet clearly grounded in the natural world.
His relief paintings are sculptural, built up with inches of thick acrylics and
modeling paste to the point that they nearly jump off the canvas. His
sculptures are enhanced with innovative coatings and patinas producing color,
texture and an illusion of movement. His enhanced watercolors are soft and
luminous. “I want people to experience motion and emotion in my art,”
Greenslade asserts, “so my faces are seldom symmetrical and my figures just
can’t stand still.” Greenslade’s use of materials is eclectic. “Because of my
scientific training, I tend to be experimental in my choice of media,” he
explains. “I use metal, concrete, clay, acrylics, wood, found-objects –
whatever tells the best story.”
"I lived a serious life, but now in my dotage, I am
just letting the kid out again, " Greenslade smiles.
"It's more fun than an old guy desearves”.
