Bri Custer
"Love Me in My Silence" Abstracted Landscape Oil Painting

2023

About the Item

This original abstracted landscape statement oil painting by artist Bri Custer features a cool blue palette with warm orange and pink accents throughout. The artist applies thick layers of paint in large, loose strokes over the surface of the canvas, creating texture. The painting is made on gallery wrapped canvas and has clean white sides. It is wired and ready to hang. "A vertical landscape composed from a visit to Bend, Oregon with a friend. We stopped at this spot, just on the side of the highway and the light was just so good. These large works were made in the studio and were informed by memory, photo reference, and numerous digital drawings," the artist says of this piece. Bri Custer was born in southern New Hampshire and raised with a love of the seacoast. She received her M.Ed. in Secondary Education (2019) and B.A. in Studio Art (2014) from the University of New Hampshire. She is currently a full-time artist based in Concord, New Hampshire with her husband, Bryan and hound-lab mix, Vinny. "Human memory is unreliable," Bri says. "Our brains can create false or skewed memories, and even block them out altogether in instances of trauma or extreme stress. As someone who has experienced this phenomenon, I have a deep curiosity about the way my brain serves and hinders me, both in life and in painting. "My practice is rooted in plein air landscape painting, but even when painting directly from life, I consider it painting from memory. In the few seconds between looking from the landscape to the canvas, my brain has taken the light reflected by the world, translated it to electrical impulses, and formed an imperfect short-term memory of that subject. Some artists use measurements and tools to close the gap between memory and reality, but I’m more interested in exploiting it. I use the lapses that occur between observing my subject and marking my canvas as opportunities to invent color and space. I relish the opportunity to lay down a wildly bold pink or exaggerate a slant of light to the point of distortion. By the time a painting is finished, it is more a representation of feeling a landscape than it is a record of seeing one."
