David Shevlino
Diane with Braids Oil on Panel Figurative Painting Contemporary

2015

About the Item

Diane with Braids is from 2012 and is 12 x 10 and comes to you framed in minimal hardwood. This oil on panel painting by Shevlno link traditional representation with abstraction. Through Shevlino’s sensuous application of paint, his use of broad brushstrokes followed by a tightening up of the composition, and his making of spontaneous, gestural marks, the artist creates living, breathing figures that not only stand before us, but move, beckon, and dance. David Shevlino was born in Jersey City, NJ in 1962. A graduate of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the University of Pennsylvania, he also studied at the Art Students' League in New York. Growing up near NYC, Shevlino was exposed to art as a teenager. He began making trips to art museums at age 15 and developed a love of traditional figurative painting. His early work was very traditional and classically inspired. However, after many years of experimenting, Shevlino began exploring a looser paint application which straddles the line between representational painting and abstraction. This "in between" area is where the painter feels most comfortable and best able to express his artistic voice. His paintings are characterized by broad brushstrokes, a sensuous application of paint and an obvious feel for tonal harmonies. At the same time, the artist demonstrates a firm sense of control, tightening up the composition through his deft modeling of the human form. Shevlino has exhibited work nationally in both solo and group exhibits over the past two decades and currently lives in NC.
