Les Passages
30"x22"gouache on paper 2019
My painting on paper "Les Passages" is set inside a Passages Couverts, one of Paris’s chic hidden walkways.
In my artwork, a stylish flâneur strolls into the entrance of a glorious glass-roofed passage.
The Passages Couverts (covered passages) in Paris provide shelter from the rain, present opportunities to browse and shop, or spend a secluded hour in the arms of a lover.

"What we do know at heart—and in our most honest moments—is that what we humans cling to in our pursuit of security and reassurance is at best provisional, ephemeral, insubstantial. What Chadwick paints for us is a disturbing, but somehow profoundly comforting vision of ourselves. The comfort part, I would suggest, lies in our recognition of its truth." - Peter Clothier, Time and Again
For me, walking in a city is one of life's greatest treasures. Over the years, I have created art influenced by my urban treks in cities across the globe. The light, streets, and humanity in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Paris, Venice, Verona, Berlin, Amsterdam, Tokyo, and Kyoto has found its place in my artwork and continues to inspire new paintings built upon my memories of time and place.
