The need to draw it was so strong I can still see the deep texture of the bark and the seemingly endless crisscrossing branches and twigs. Through detailed landscapes, I attempt to demonstrate my admiration for our natural world. Each piece begins with an on location sketch and is then completed in my studio, where I try to move beyond my architect\u2019s critical eye to incorporate touches of the abstract in an effort to convey a sense of presence and substance.\u201d Aksdal also says, \u201cEach blade of grass is an individual and is to be treated with respect as any individual deserves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>(text adapted from the venue\u2019s press materials)<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Emile A.
