Shane McAdams
Hot Air - Abstract Mountain Landscape Pink Yellow Stripes Resin, 2015

2015

About the Item

In this contemporary abstract landscape, a sense of wonder and whimsy is conveyed, blending of fantasy and realism. Shane McAdams' unique ballpoint ink process layers striations of bright pink, blue, and yellow in vibrant vertical stripes. Hot air balloons float through a colorful striped sky, while layers of resin create depth within the surface. A vast mountain range is depicted in oil along the bottom of the composition. Signed, dated and titled on verso. McAdams’ work is about landscape in the broadest sense. The artist grew up in the desert southwest and it continues to be a touchstone in his work both as a symbol of process and as a source of content. His current paintings reflect the dueling relationships between natural and synthetic forms. The paintings are closely aligned with the methods of their creation and the physical properties inherent within specific, mundane materials. Materials such as Elmer’s glue, correction fluid, ballpoint pen ink and plastic resin, are stretched to their limits through non-traditional applications. The process of creation reflects the physical forces that are constantly at work to sculpt the natural landscape. McAdams’ artwork addresses what is artificial and what is natural in both media and practice as it relates to the history of painting.

"Copse", oil painting, landscape, abstract, trees, field, sky, light, copper
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Copse" is an oil painting with chalk and graphite on wood panel, and measures 16" high by 12" wide. It is finished with a clear resin across the surface, lending the artwork a particular warmth and liquidity that is rare and lovely to behold. Typical of the artist, the painting is a mystery despite its apparent simplicity – the landscape with trees on the horizon, the wide full sky bearing down with clouds and light. The picture surface is very interesting – drawn lines and painterly brushstrokes to be sure, but note the speed and swift conviction of those brushstrokes. All of it held, as if in time, by the resin layer acting as a lens to both transmit this picture and admit light to the picture. A true artifact. From Will Hudson...
