Tim Craighead
Venice Blue

2016

About the Item

Tim Craighead’s work is categorized as abstract, though it inhabits a space between objective and non­objective painting. Both serve as a matrix for what are essentially autobiographical works. Craighead is interested in the symbolic potential of the objective world and the possibilities abstraction presents in suggesting the unknown. His mark­-making operates in discreet spatial zones. He listens to the paint, the works aren’t driven self­-consciously, rather they emerge from a more enigmatic, less familiar place.

Vortices (Minimalist Abstract Color Field Painting in Aqua, Deep Blue, & Black)
By Shawn Snow
Located in Hudson, NY
Horizontal minimalist abstract acrylic painting in color fields of aqua, deep blue and black. oil and alkyd on canvas in a Larson Juhl black wood recessed framed Inspired by stones, stains from nature, erosion and artists such as Rothko and Sam Francis, Snow produces meditative fields of brilliant aqua, blue and black color by layering oil paints with a fast drying alkyd medium. The network of layers are bound to a complex under-painting with broad bands of pigment while the rapid drying alkyd allows Snow to continue the succession quite quickly, revealing beautiful boundaries of color. With his painting Snow strives for purity, seeking depth without illusion, using horizons of colors as a harmonious language to create chords, scales and tones. The artist has exhibited extensively in the New England region and has shown with Carrie Haddad Gallery for more than ten years. Surface texture of this painting is incredibly smooth due to the combination of paint and chemicals used. Palette is a brilliant aqua and...
