Biography from American Design Ltd.
Eyvind Earle creates images where large geometric forms predominate; trees are pressed flat against the foreground, and there angular barns and receding curves of the horizon.
On these forms Earle imposes detail that is both realistic and decorative, hinting here of the Flemish Masters, there of the Japanese printmaker - scored bark, weathered planks, the tracery of shadows.
When invited to describe his creative process more fully, Earle speaks in mystical terms. A student of Yoga since the age of 16, he began work for many years by meditating and then rushing to canvas to paint beautiful scenes which appeared to him.
"I've found," says Earle "that the wonderful thing about screen printing is the inventiveness you can exercise with it. You can decide to do a thousand things as you print."
