Item Special Note

ROGER E. HYNDMAN As a practicing artist I’m striving to find and record a balance between the natural environment and man’s imprint upon the environment. My recent work is focused upon recording the harmony and balance that exists between man’s creative expressions and natures majestic forms and beauty. At times this journey is interrupted by the unexpected and newly discovered creative pursuits. I seek the trail less traveled, searching for the harmony of nature, as an inspiration for the images in my artwork.

Many of my intaglio images focus upon waterfalls and the challenge of creating artwork that catches the movement of water cascading over rock formations, bed rock, and mountain streams. Many of my images record historic sites and the wilderness in New York State, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Images from Tuscany record the rolling hillside, vineyards, olive groves, cyprus trees, and buildings of antiquity. 

I have conducted workshops in Printmaking over the past decade for artists, arts councils, arts organizations, professional organizations, and school districts. I have engaged in artist residencies at arts organizations, colleges,  and regional schools.   I'm partnered with the VIEW (Art Center/ Old Forge, NY), Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts, Yates County Arts Center, Mid-Hudson Teacher Center, SUNY New Paltz, Hartwick College, University of New Hampshire, Fletcher Farm School, Touchstone Center for the Arts and Crafts, Sagamore Great Camp, and the Saratoga Arts Council. I have organized and coordinated eight trips to Italy over the past ten years.  The focus has been upon the art, history, and culture of the Medieval and Renaissance time periods, including a two-week artist retreat to Tuscany, residing near Florence at a Medieval Vila built in 1392.  Recent travels have taken me to Italy, Sicily, Scotland, the Shetland Islands, Fair Isle, and France. Several of my recent intaglio prints reflect the influence of my travels across the United States, Europe, and the Tuscan countryside.
