Reflecting on his Art
Dave Kent, 60, uses a hand-held mirror to examine the perspective of a painting he is working on as he and his friend, Scott West, paint the scenery of Old Tampa Bay along the north side of Gandy Blvd. on Saturday afternoon. "I see mistakes that I wouldn't see without it," Kent says of the mirror. He and West are both psychotherapists from Lakeland who share an interest in painting and travel mostly in Florida, but as far away as New York, to work on landscapes. While West has been painting for about ten years, Kent has been doing so since his late twenties, having studied as an abstract artist at New York University and at the Art Students League in New York before moving on to what he said was a more lucrative endeavor.
