American artist Gregory Euclideknown for his unconventional garbage landscapes, still lives in Minnesota and works as an art teacher at a high school. But the one who teaches has little time to create on his own, and Gregory Euclid figured out how to rectify the situation. He draws during 25 minute break for lunch, right on the white board in your office. And what happens in this short period of time is truly amazing. With a black marker on a white plexiglass board, so as not to lose shape, dexterity and skills, Gregory Euclid depicts, of course, nature. This is the main theme in the artist's work, since he spent his childhood and adolescence in the countryside of Wisconsin, and managed to fall in love with the local beauty. Since then, nature has inspired him in life. So surreal landscapes do not appear on the office board by accident. By the way, landscapes are not always peaceful forest - there are also urban ones, with power lines and steel towers, there are sea, and even rural, with small houses and a fence around the front gardens. You look - and you wonder, how can all this be created in 25 minutes?
Gregory Euclid laughs that he likes to look at the faces of his students when they come into the classroom after dinner. And that they are always very sorry to see how the newly painted picture disappears under the influence of detergent and a special sponge for wiping the board. Temporary Whiteboard Drawings is one of the titles of this series of creative works by the artist from Minnesota.
Of course, it's a pity to "kill" the masterpieces born with your own hands, and to do so day after day. Therefore, Gregory Euclid keeps his painting on the office board as limited edition prints. The series is called Laid Down and Wiped Away, and you can see the entire collection of drawings on the Gregory Euclid website.
