Vincent Smarkusz

Undiscovered American Genius in Modern Art

April

"April" depicts the first full month of spring, as a transitional time from cold and wet to sunny and warm.  Smarkusz also shifts his emphasis from the mythical to the natural, while blending the two.  A small white dove emerging from it's shell signifies Easter and The Resurrection. The Ram of course, is the zodiac sign for Aries and a symbol of action.
