About the Item
Anne Johnstone’s “Box in Bleak Weather" is an acrylic painting with collage on cradled board. It’s a captivating piece of abstract art featuring a three-dimensional cube at its center. The cube is striking due to its bright, warm colors—orange and yellow on one side and a transitioning violet-blue on the other—which starkly contrast against the predominantly deep blue background. This contrast draws immediate focus to the cube, making it the visual and conceptual heart of the artwork. The sides are unpainted and the painting is signed on the back, upper middle.
Anne Johnstone‘s subject matter is her interior world. Her paintings and drawings are color dense and emotionally charged images about her inner life, everything from personal struggles to physical awareness to the world around her. Using acrylics and canvas collage on her paintings, she creates tightly knit compositions that vibrate with stilled energy. In her oil pastels, layered color takes on hard-to-define hues, while shapes bulge, defining space with both humor and determination. Her drawings combine crayon and gouache with pencil to create psychological dramas. Her style is most akin to abstract expressionism, with bold brush strokes which scribble and drip and declare themselves here for the action. She often uses a glazing medium to enhance the transparency of her colors, making visible the history of color application. “I am drawn to imbalance and asymmetry in my work. I seek to bring attention to those qualities while creating solid compositions.”
