About the Item
Blue Veils (Pair of Abstract Paintings on Paper, Blue & Orange Metallic Powder) by Bruce Murphy
enamel paint and metallic powders on Arches paper
each piece measures 24 x 18 inches
overall dimensions are 24 x 36 inches
Intended to be hung as a pair, but each piece of paper is separate so the option is open to frame together or separately.
Diaphanous clouds of color are layered within veils of gold and silver metallic powders. A true master of this medium, the artist’s deft application results in a suavely knitted fabric of shimmering light that not only reflects but also emits from, through and behind the nebula of color. Murphy invents a universe on a two dimensional plane where his marks and incisions become points in the cosmos.
About the artist:
Contemporary painter Bruce Murphy presents a new series of soft-focus abstract landscapes as well as paintings on sheet metal. Murphy's materials of choice are enamel paint, metallic powders and gold leaf which he layers onto pieces of copper, paper or wood. These surfaces are later unearthed when the artist scratches into the color which he finishes with a final coat of thick automobile varnish. Recent paintings more closely resemble landscapes; harmonies of deep blue, green, and purple hues give way to distant horizons or light reflecting off water. Works on metal conjure up something much more abstract, with mood rusty colors spun with poetic notes of rose and yellow. Murphy cites Pierre Bonnard, founding member of the Post-Impressionist group Les Nabis, as a major artistic influence for his illusory use of chromatics. Bruce Murphy graduated from the Parson's School of Design with a BFA in painting. He later worked as a graphic designer for various publications such as House and Garden. He currently devotes himself full time to his art.
