The Garage Gallery at the Creative Well Arts Foundation
Waiting for the Lull presents a collection of oil paintings by Fredericksburg-based artist Tim Criswell, whose work is shaped by a lifelong relationship with the ocean.
A self-taught painter and dedicated surfer, Criswell draws from memory and instinct rather than photographic reference. His process is both meditative and intuitive – each painting unfolding one brushstroke at a time.
Focusing on coastal landscapes and storm-driven skies, Criswell captures the quiet tension between movement and stillness — often depicting the moment when a storm begins to break and light returns to the horizon.
Leaning toward atmosphere over detail, his work evokes the feeling of a place rather than a precise scene, inviting viewers into a space of reflection, rhythm, and calm.
The Garage Gallery is open:
Wednesday-Friday 10am-3pm
Saturday 9am-12pm
