Daisy Craddock
Nettarina, oil pastel and oil stick on Arches paper, abstract fruit portrait

2022

About the Item

Drawn from life, Craddock considers her diptychs to be literal depictions of her fruit and vegetable subjects: skin on the left side, and flesh on the right. When seen from a distance, Craddock’s produce-portraits appear to be abstract blocks of color. Since her permanent relocation to Germantown, New York, Daisy has not only had access to local produce, but has begun her own garden, as well. The love and labor of cultivating and raising produce is translated into her work. Indelible pastel marks are made judiciously on her paper, accumulating to create a portrait of her subject. Though they appear as color field abstractions, Daisy’s pastels are, in fact, dutiful representations of the unique landscapes of her subjects’ skin and flesh.

July, Vibrant & Abstract Acrylic on Handmade Paper
By Carolanna Parlato
Located in New York, NY
The artist describes her creative process as one that draws from imagination, reflection, and intuition, resulting in works that mediate between chance and order. She states: “I build up my paintings with multiple layers of fluid acrylic paint, creating a conversation between light, color and space. I strive for a balance between open and cluttered spaces; orbs of vivid color bump up against intricate and tightly woven, grid-like areas of paint. This process, in play with the materials, results in graphic networks drawing on traditions of color field painters as well as contemporary works by Elizabeth Neel...
