Willie Crockett
Onancock , Virginia-
United States
Watercolor-
Landscapes
Willie Crockett's paintings are recognized as among the most honest portrayals of the Chesapeake's drama and beauty. Best known for his wildlife art, Willie transmits to his paintings an everfresh view of the Eastern Shore landscape, the wildfowl and the marsh. Willie Crockett speaks with the strong dialect unique to Tangier Island where he was born and he paints with the strength of a life-long, intimate knowledge of the Chesapeake Bay.
An occasional, easy transition into colorful abstracts and flowers speaks for the versatility of the painter and the sensitivity of the man. While best known for his glowing watercolors, Crockett has been working more recently in oils and acrylics as well.
The artist makes his home in Historic Onancock, Virginia where he welcomes guests to his studio and gallery. This area, located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay, offers the artist the inspirational scenery including landscapes, seascapes, waterfowl, boats and docks...
