Venitzia Queen
of the Sea
Nestled
in her secluded lagoons, protected by the warm soothing
waves of the Adriatic Sea, Venice lingers, indeed flourishes
in the elegance to which she has grown wisely and artistically
filled....each moment in Venice is like a love song, ever
changing, yet ever filling the heart with fulfilled longing,
passion flowering each moment more fully, yet running strong
and true like the deep ocean currents which brought and
still bring cargoes of treasure to this Jewel of the Seas.

Christopher Gerlach is an artist in light - his paintings are about the beauty of atmosphere, light and color. He works in a style that is impressionistic and personal. He has shown widely in the United States, including at the former William Sawyer Gallery in San Francisco, and the Fischbach Gallery in New York. Christopher was one of the first living artists to revive realism and the painterly landscape tradition in the 1970's. He lives and works currently in southern Colorado.
