Frank Eber's paintings capture an intense atmosphere and give a strong sense of place without depicting many superficial details. The dominating forces in his works are tone and value, as well as carefully placed strokes of bold colors to create a lasting visual impression. He strives to express the essential life force within land- and cityscapes, urban and everyday situations. The goal is to create an emotional tie with the viewer, but leaving room for interpretation.
He prefers to paint on location whenever possible. The medium of choice is watercolor for its quick drying capabilities and spontaneity. There is no substitute for being onsite, taking in the sounds, smells, and personality of a place. The goal is always to work "in the zone", unencumbered by thought and concern. When it happens, the painting reveals itself...
Frank thinks it is essential as an artist to continually evolve and grow, just as it is in life in general. It's a process, not a destination.
