- Penner's works are based on his photographs, digital video stills, and his experience of the rural landscapes of Texas and New Mexico- Penner's hyper realistic technique meticulously records both the iconic imagery and the beauty in the ashes of these once-prosperous streets and neighborhoods that still endure- 268 color platesThe abandoned and forgotten landscapes of rural southwestern towns are the favored subjects of Rod Penner's paintings. His deft use of contrasts in his images -- despondency and hope, isolation and nostalgia -- evokes memories of The Last Picture Show and elicits complex responses from viewers. The artist's keen eye combines photojournalism and photorealism to create images of small-town America.
"A moment that is completely frozen with all the variety of textures; rust on poles, "I'm interested in the look of things and the quality of being there," he says.
