Artist Michael Summers is working on a new mural commissioned by The Flower Fields in Carlsbad, featuring elephants, the ranunculus flowers and rolling hills of the 55-acre ranch, and plenty of vibrant colors
Those big, beautiful elephants kept plodding a path through Michael Summers’ mind, and he finally found the right home for them — his new mural at The Flower Fields in Carlsbad. The contemporary pop surrealist painter was commissioned to create “something original and unique,” giving him free rein to realize this vision, which he’s working on at the 55-acre working ranch and tourist attraction through March 29.
Q: What do you hope people see/experience once your mural at The Flower Fields has been completed? A: My philosophy on creating art is that inspiration strikes, the artist creates, and after that, the art no longer belongs to the artist. When an artist says what their paintings are about, they are almost doing a disservice to the viewer, because innately everyone who looks at a work of art is going to have their own aesthetic reaction.
