As a boy the grassy fields of Montrose served as a studio for Ted Cowart. He traveled the neigh- borhood collecting as only a childs imagination can inspirations that would last a lifetime. Today keeping nature close at hand Ted has retreated into a studio above the trees an urban treehouse if you will. Nestled on the top floor of a Glendower Court townhome a cubbyhole of a space has become an ideal setting for this energetic seemingly tire- less artist. Light streams in from three sides. Trees and rooftops offer perspectives near and far. The high-vaulted space has oak paneling floor to ceil- ing offering a woodsy feel that Ted prefers. The studio overlooks a large patio which is critical as some of the larger canvases must be hoisted up from the street. The studio is calm peaceful until the work begins. With canvas primed and ready tube after tube of oil paint standing by a captivating creative energy takes over. Underpainting with sig- nificant strokes captures the essence of the paint- ing. Huge landscapes and insightful abstracts emerge under bold broad impetuous brush- strokes each one rapidly and decisively applied. Paint is splattered. Tubes are emptied. Brushes loaded with paint are discarded. Paintings appear bringing Teds view of the world for all to enjoy.
