2021

About the Item

The Original abstract painting by Jonathan Speed is painted on deep edge 5cm box canvas (unframed). It is stringed and ready to be displayed. Jonathan Speed is an artist and photographer based in London. Jonathan has been described as ‘a tour-de-force of controlled fine application of colour, vigorous expressionistic highlights and tonal blending’. His style is of the contemporary English tradition for highly worked canvases and draws inspiration from the works of past masters, such as Turner, Whistler and Courbet, with their skillful use of light and atmospheric qualities. Working in oil, he produces paintings full of atmosphere and a projection of vast open space. His work features landscapes set at dusk with the setting sun and brooding shadows of mountains as well as energetic seascapes of cresting waves. Jonathan excels at capturing the moment, a skill he developed from his passion for photography. He travels as often as he can to revel in unspoilt, empty landscapes and has a particular passion for depicting the genteel English countryside as well as the raw, untamed continent of Africa.

  • Saltine - original landscape seascape ocean oil painting Coastal Modern realist
    By Jonathan Trim
    Located in London, Chelsea
    This contemporary seascape painting by Jonathan Trim presents a study of a tranquil coastal scene. This piece creates a pleasing impression of the character of the natural subject matter, featuring interesting textures and verdant greenery which surrounds the waters. A sense of the waters stillness is implied by the artist which gives the vista a calming ambience. The artist successfully captures the serenity and sublime beauty of the natural subject matter. This artwork is painted in oils, strung and ready to be displayed. Jonathan Trim was born in 1948 in Leigh on Sea Essex by the Thames Estuary, an area that has always been a vital source of inspiration. Sketchbooks from early childhood show a fascination with light and water, which has made him the artist that he is. Jonathan studied Art at Southend School of Art and Leeds University/Huddersfield Polytechnic. Over the years he has established a reputation for paintings of atmospheric landscapes. Jonathan works from his studio near the Thames estuary often beginning the work out in the location. The environments of estuaries, rivers and the low lying wetlands of Britain and the landscape of France are his constant sources of inspiration. He spends time every summer painting in South West France. He has developed a deep awareness and intense relationship to these types of landscapes. His works are imbued with a deep sense of time and memory resulting in paintings that are rich in personal responses. His work is always about the spirit of the place and the feelings of connection and continuity. His painting methods frequently use textural materials from these areas which are embedded into the paint creating an interesting surface texture to the work. He applies colour using a wide variety of techniques to capture the flickering light...
