R.B. Sprague is driven by his never-ending exploration of scale and light.  Painting in oil on linen the majority of Sprague's work focuses on interior spaces and the relationships of the objects he places within those spaces.  He defines his compositions with common objects like tables and chairs but always leaves ample room for the viewer to create their own interpretation.  By using thin, transparent layers of glazes, Sprague's canvases seemingly emanate light from within and even the simplest of paintings becomes a compelling work of art.  In addition to his series of interiors, the artist has been painting more and more exteriors often incorporating landscapes.  His rooms have given way to more windows, windows to more balconies and the balconies have become a springboard for what lies beyond. 

     We are sad to announce the passing of artist
Roger Sprague.
His art & humor will be missed.
