Jerry Power paints very realistic landscapes, working outdoors as often as possible. Although he does paint in oils, he favors pastels when painting in the field because he finds them easier to handle. Power paints scenes with strong shadows so he creates most of his landscapes in the early morning or late afternoon. These are the times the landscapes seem to pull him in. He shares those moments with the viewer which may never come again to spark an awareness that nature is both beautiful and fragile. His sense of realism is his way of honoring creation itself.
