Jeremy Daly-Griffen
The style
of painting I use is simplified realism with a focus on
color, contrast, and composition, rather than intimate
detail. This style is not dissimilar to color field
painting but with greater emphasis on capturing an
expression or emotion of a moment. The color portrays
a sense of movement and gesture by using colors in the
same family, along with high contrast which helps
to create some visual "pop". The placement of the image on
the canvas helps to create a central focus and guide the
viewer into a more intimate connection with the subject
matter and colors of the art work.
My latest series focuses on the human form and specifically
the pregnant woman’s body and its glowing radiance that you
may never be able to be captured in a photograph. When I
see the nude human form, I see a series of shadows that
appear
light and
dark. The curves of a pregnant woman’s body cast shadows
that seem to be even more pronounced or exaggerated. It is
my intent with this series to capture the curves, shapes,
lines and essence of a nude pregnant woman through the
emphasis of light and shadow. For each painting, I have
chosen a single color oil paint in four shades to provide a
smooth, rich texture scheme that illustrates and
intensifies the curves, shapes, lines and essence of the
pregnant woman.
