Lorraine Benton Paintings

British
Lorraine was born in London and studied sculpture for several years before undertaking a Fine Art Degree. She currently spends much of the year in the French Alps, which is a great inspirational source and influences much of her work. Lorraine now primarily paints and is inspired by experimenting with new media including acrylic paints and inks, oil paints, metal leaf, and pouring and blending mediums. The main subject matter focuses on landscape, described in an ever-abstracted style, and is informed by her scientific and musical background, often referencing rhythm, form and interval. She is drawn to abstraction as she feels that the loose visual description allows more freedom for interpretation, offering a greater sense of visual journey and slowing down the experience to allow the viewer to explore and connect with the artwork on a deeper, more personal level. The notion of abstraction originated from the fascination of illusory space and our perception of what we think we see. Having studied sculpture for many years, Lorraine is drawn to creating two-dimensional works with aspects of the three-dimensional world, whether it is presented as an object or as a two-dimensional form that alludes to an added depth. Being highly myopic from an early age, she recalls the indistinct, blurry forms of colours and tones blending haphazardly and trying to decipher and interpret these images. It is her intention to use this approach in unlocking the imagination and to project the viewer into this psychological portal beyond the barrier of the artwork Lorraine regularly exhibits a collection of work in corporate spaces throughout the UK including EY, Napp, Grant Thornton and Oxera, and has been a member of several art societies for many years, including the Royal Society of Sculptors (nominated and elected in 2011). She also exhibits in France and is represented by galleries in the UK and France.

Phenomena Quoth by Paul Jenkins - Abstract Expressionist painting, 1963-64

By Paul Jenkins

Located in London, GB

Phenomena Quoth by Paul Jenkins (1923-2012) Acrylic on canvas 76 x 100 cm (29 ⁷/₈ x 39 ³/₈ inches) Signed lower center, Paul Jenkins Signed, titled and dated on the reverse Executed in 1963-64 Provenance Kenmore Galleries, Philadelphia Dr. Theodore A. Feinstein collection Sotheby's New York, 24th February 1995 Crozier Fine Arts, New York Private collection, New York Artist biography Born at Kansas City in Missouri (USA), the multi-media artist, poet and playwright Paul Jenkins studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and the Art Students League in New York City. After his discharge from military service at the end of February 1946, he briefly studied playwriting with dramatist George McCalmon at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. Thereafter, Jenkins spent four years studying with Japanese American artist Yasuo Kuniyoshi in New York City. His first solo exhibitions were held at Studio Paul Facchetti in Paris in 1954 and the Martha Graham Gallery in New York City in 1956. Over the past thirty years, numerous retrospectives have been curated across the globe and Jenkins’ work can found in national collections from Europe and the United States to Israel, Australia and Japan. The diversity of his work springs from Jenkins’ wealth of eclectic influences. Some of his earliest works included what he called "interior landscapes" influenced by ancient natural forms like the caves he visited in the Ozark Mountains in his native-Missouri. Frequent student visits to the Frick Collection in New York fostered a love of the great masters: Bellini, Holbein, Vermeer, Rembrandt, de la Tour, Turner and Goya. In compliment, lingering student visits to the renowned Eastern collection of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City evoked powerful sympathy for a monumental Chinese fresco of Buddha, polychrome sculptures of the enlightened Bodhisattva, the Buddhist goddess of mercy Kuan-Yin, Indian bronzes of Hindu god Shiva, and statues of meditative Buddhist lohans. Serving in the US Naval Air Corps during the Second World War, Jenkins painted watercolours of Japanese Kabuki dancers and read the ancient Chinese poetic teachings of the I Ching and Lao Tse Tung’s Tao Te Ching...
