Sean Ware lives and paints in Sarasota, Florida as an illustration instructor at the Ringling College of Art and Design. Whether it’s fading light, passing storms or growing weeds, Sean enjoys looking at these everyday surroundings and finding something new in a familiar thing. His work balances a variety of methods: alla prima plein air painting, large studio painting, and printmaking, each prompting and informing the others. Recent works focus on recording and reinterpreting time spent on the Isles of Shoals and Maine coastline.
