About the Item
Sunstorm, 24 x 24 inches, drypoint on aluminum (Frame Size: 25 x 25 in.) by Paul Vincent Bernard. $2,450
PROCESS AND MEDIA: Scratched, etched, and rubbed enamel-coated printing plates/painted aluminum panel.
Bernard crosses the lines between painting and printmaking as he drags paint, wipes paint, and scribes dry point lines into his paint. His shapes tend to crowd the margins of his pieces-- dense, black, heavy forms edged in lively mark making. The large buttes and mesas of Utah’s stunning geography provide a starting point for many of Bernard’s paintings.
Bernard takes forms, sometimes famous, iconic structures or geographic formations, sometimes personally meaningful forms, and reduces them to bare shapes and masses generally unrecognizable as the originals. The resulting minimalist landscapes are activated with busy crosshatches, scribbles, or scratches.
Paul Vincent Bernard is a Salt Lake printmaker and painter who creates minimalist landscapes– abstract shapes, paths, and margins inspired by the spare Utah geography. Dark monoliths and deep black forms are threaded with slender fissures, edged in loose fast scrawls that jut into only the merest slip of pale horizon. Working in both media, Bernard’s sensibilities as a painter are informed by his printmaking training, while his prints frequently have a painterly feel. And his inks: deep, matte, light-absorbing, blacks. The inks are frequently painted onto enamel-coated printing plates or painted panel that are then scratched, rubbed, and scribed-upon in a way that leaves the finished piece with not just gravity, but also energy.

"Wendover 3" by Joseph Ostraff, oil on panel, 36 X 31 inches, $4,800.
"For me, paint documents the state of things, how I feel and what is at the forefront in my thinking—maybe it’s like the soup of the day. I do not consider this process to be anything special in itself. The paintings record the daily random and absurd associations I make, which seem interesting to me after the fact. The Domestic paintings are a case in point. My wife and I have six children. Four have left home. Three are married. We are left with two children, both currently in middle school. We have about five years and they too will move out. This is on my mind. I am thinking about the layers of memories and it comes out as layers of paint. Feeling nostalgic, I think about all the noise and activity our home has absorbed. In turn, I found children’s large vinyl decals from Angry Birds...

Sun Reflects

FLOWERS Series:
"I have journeyed through black and white, expanding my visual grip of form, light and reflection. Now the seeds I’ve planted along the way are blossoming into flowers. This is my most recent series and I am allowing my art to guide me. Each painting takes me to the next, within which I seem to stretch into something new. What had been more abstract is now blooming and I love the addition of flowers and all the endless directions this can lead me to. Just as a flower bud holds the full picture of its bloom, so too do these paintings hold a fuller...
