These large-scale, highly representational paintings focus on the world reflected in the same two puddles outside the artist's home. By focusing on the myriads of details and in the ambience created by the passing light, the artist opens up a whole new world of observation and creates a sense of mystery from the mundane. Joel Sheesley lives in Wheaton and is a Professor of Art at Wheaton College.
