Jackie Battenfield
Dark Delight Cs1, Dogwood Leaves on Mylar in Deep Purple and Lavender, Botanical

2015

About the Item

Layers of dogwood leaves in dramatic dark purple grace brown branches on the pristine white background of this horizontal painting in acrylic on mylar. Battenfield's works on Mylar require mounting and bracing prior to framing. Price shown is the unframed price. Please inquire with the gallery for mounting and framing costs. Jackie Battenfield’s meditative painting process begins with the artist’s close attention to the graceful forms of unfolding leaves and blossoms, and to the twisted boughs and branches of trees. The artist painstakingly translates her photographic studies into drawings on large sheets of translucent Mylar, taking care to stay true to the original images. The artist makes hundreds of color studies before arriving at the palette for each painting. When applied to the Mylar, Battenfield’s ink-like pigments reassert themselves, separating and forming unexpected, distinctive abstract, transparent and opaque patterns. The finished painting on Mylar is mounted on a panel that allows light to play behind the pristine painted surface. The last two images are of samples showing the translucency of the Mylar material prior to the mounting.

  • Studio 2006, Pointillist Interior Painting, Artist Studio
    Located in Kent, CT
    In this pointillist interior scene, an artist's studio is carefully painted in colorful dots in acrylic and gouache on Duralar mounted on panel. Signed and dated on verso. Kirstin Lamb’s gridded, meticulously detailed paintings on transparent acetate are labor-intensive paintings of labor-intensive textiles and patterns. To create these embroidery paintings, Lamb starts by generating a digitized grid and painstakingly painting each individual gridded stitch by hand using acrylic and gouache on a wet media acetate. The process creates a one-to-one relationship of mark to stitch, the act of each brushstroke serving for the stitch of a needle. Lamb’s embroidery paintings draw patterns from French floral wallpaper of the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, while others draw inspiration from vintage embroidery patterns...
