Colorfield Figurative Landscapes Art and Poetry

Autor Grace Divine
en Limba Engleză Paperback
INTRODUCTION Art in a Colorfield style is a type of abstract art that emerged in the United States mid 20th century. At that time, the hub of art for this particular style was in New York City. It is closely associated with the Abstract, Modern and Expressionist art styles. Colorfield paintings have several elements. They often include large areas of solid color. These are usually placed adjacent to or juxtaposed against each other. Overall, the emphasis here is in the process of the work placing less importance in the detail of brushstroke. In this way, this art style tends towards abstraction or figuration. In addition, the emphasis here is in the strong colors and how they reflect and interact with each other. Why is that? In my opinion, these emphasis evokes more of an impression of a feeling rather than a calculated thought aimed at analysis, in this case, of a work of art. In my experience, what these paintings are supposed to do is more related to emotions and how our eye, mind, experiences and attitudes respond to art rather than our calculating brain responding by analyzing a work of art in terms of it's craftsmanship and detail. When I first saw Colorfield style paintings, I enjoyed them. Notably, they rich in color And so, inspired by such artists as Mark Rothko, Morris Louis, Josef Albers, Kenneth Noland, Helen Frankenthaler and others, I decided to learn this style and paint a series. The paintings here are some of the paintings that came out in this series. And how did the process for these paintings evolve? First, every artist is unique in their interpretation of art. In my case, I focused on the world "FIELD" to decide what the subject of my art would me. And for me, and for this art style, a "field" was interpreted as an earthly landscape. In this landscapes I use the Colorfield techniques as delineated above. I used extraordinary rich, natural, textured colors. What I would refer to as colors filled with passion and intensity. Therein lies one of the great aspects of the Colorfield art style, the use of colors to evoke emotions and sensations. These series of paintings are smaller measuring 16x16 to 16x20 inches. They are painted on wood surfaces with a mixture of media including acrylic, oil and texture. And most could also be labeled "FIGURATIVE." That is because they have concreteness in some ways and are recognizable. In this way, I distinguish these paintings from those of other artists who chose to or opted to interpret their personal artistic experience solely in abstract terms. Finally, I decided to turn this into a book and to include poetic thoughts and meanderings. That way I use not only art to express myself but I also engage in a conversation with a figurative viewer I hope you enjoy this art. Grace Divine
