2023

About the Item

Joie de Vivre by Julia Adams is a large 90 x 90cm square interior painting on a deep edged 25mm canvas from her Interior Spaces series. The colours she has used are vibrant pinks/blues/lime greens, depicting a colourful, eclectic, vibrant interior space with two patterned chairs with cushions in front of a fireplace with an antique portrait hung above, painted in her trademark very expressive style using layers of oil paint, acrylic, inks and spray paints along with hints of gold in the frame and chandelier lighting, and a dramatic pink damask wall covering. Julia really likes to explore the physicality of her materials in all her works and allows dripping to occur as part of the composition. A large footstool in the foreground has a striking jug of flowers placed on a blue tray with a plate of apples, and 3 books including the title of this work. There are flashes of natural light bursting in to the room. This artwork is sold unframed.

Julia Adams comments: "I use a variety of mixed media to produce my work - household glosses, spray paints, acrylics, inks and various printing techniques, rarely using a paintbrush! I like to apply paint with real freedom and spontaneity to produce paintings that have energy and depth, exploring my passion for surface quality, colour, texture and tactility." "My series of ‘Interior Spaces’ paintings have been very popular and are constantly evolving. As a starting point I use a found image or one of my own photographs, adding or removing elements as I feel necessary to enhance the composition. I then start to play with my materials, constantly adding and subtracting. I will often include abstract stencilling to add a sense of drama, and introduce rivets to add further interest. I also enjoy including text, whether stencilled or found words in magazines. The use of black lines and white space have become an integral part of the structure of the finished piece."

  • Printemps, Original Abstract Painting, Jackson Pollock Style Painting Bright Art
    By Catherine Pennington-Meyer
    Located in Deddington, GB
    This colourful contemporary abstract is, as the name might suggest, inspired by leaves unfurling and nature bursting back into life in the wake of spring. Catherine Pennington-Meyer is available at Wychwood Art online and in our gallery. Catherine is an award-winning artist who currently lives and works near Munich, in Germany. Her work concentrates primarily on abstract expressionism. Catherine has participated in exhibitions throughout Europe and has quickly established a prestigious international collector base. Catherine says of her art: `I see my painting as a kind of language, translating what I feel or experience to those viewing it. I am innately drawn to create raw, emotive, expressionist pieces, mostly abstracts, which distil a subject down to its feeling. I don`t only want my art to be `beautiful` but for it to reach out and touch the person who is viewing it on an immediate, intuitive level. I want my paintings to speak to their audience in their own visceral language. I am influenced by nature, particularly the multifaceted nature of water, and memories of growing up in particularly beautiful landscapes in North Yorkshire and Scotland. I also find human psychology and science fascinating. But I see compositions everywhere, whether it be flowers in a park, the way smoke curls, books on a library shelf or a street market. Everything is made up of shapes and colours. The world is a constant source influences and inspiration.’ Over time, as her work has developed, she has been increasingly compelled towards abstraction, through which she feels able to communicate an energy which is untethered by the constraints of realism. She enjoys playing with light, depth and movement in her art to give it immediacy and to draw a viewer into the composition. Catherine also enjoys poetry, and her works occasionally have accompanying narratives. Catherine views visual and written art...

    Located in West Hollywood, CA
    Jirayr Zorthian(1911-2004), went through two Turkish massacres before age eight. He left Turkey at age nine with his family and spent a year in Padua, Italy, waiting for his visa to open to the United States. This period was very important in his life because his father took him to many cities in Europe and exposed him to great works of art. Zorthian arrived in the United States at the age of eleven and settled with his family in New Haven, Connecticut. He obtained his formal education there, after graduating from Yale in 1932, the Winchester Fellowship granted him a year and a half at the American Academy in Rome with travel and study throughout Europe.
