“In my most recent work, I apply a hue, often chosen arbitrarily, as an organic shape or taped off geometrically, and then play other colors against it — layering, concealing, accumulating passages and adjusting various combinations until I achieve the “yes” moment.” words of the incredibly talented artist, Jeremy Rabus.
Jeremy Rabus is a St. Louis, Missouri-based painter who works in a non-objective “call-and-response” improvisational method. His paintings evoke the sensibility of landscape and oceanic views.
“Every successful painting evokes an immediate, visceral reaction. The finished piece must possess a concrete sense of reality, not as a faithful representation of any object, scene or notion, but within the context of a well-contained optical experience, framed by the four edges of the rectangular picture plane. A painting should be tangible, and feel real and present.”
Lately I have been sourcing a lot of art for different clients because there are far too many to choose from and I know it can be overwhelming. It’s artists like this one in particular that make it easy for us designers to choose great art!
