Sam Lock Art

British, b. 1973

Sam Lock is a contemporary British painter. His work responds directly to their material. As the son of Jenny Lock, Sam's creativity has been nurtured his whole life. Originally from London, Sam lived in Canada before his artistic talent was nurtured at the University of Edinburgh College of Art, from where he graduated in 1997 with a double MA in Fine Art and History of Art. Sam paints viscerally. As well as the brush, he uses blowtorches and electric sanders on his oil paintings, wearing their surfaces down in a repeated process of building and destruction. At its core, his work conveys the passage of time; colours, movement and places that are half-recalled or uncertain. Sam sees his paintings as each having a character, which he explores in the relationships between layers of media, the creation of tensions and interactions that evidence the intuitive processes he followed in their creation. Sam's work has been exhibited in London and the wider UK, including at the Royal Academy's 2015 Summer Exhibition. His paintings are found in collections in the UK and abroad.

Moody Blue - 24"x30", Grey and Blue, Minimal Abstract Painting, Christmas Gift
By Andrea Stajan-Ferkul
Located in Mississauga, Ontario
Layers of paint build up this neutral palette where emphasis is placed on minimal composition. From a distance, the painting explores colour fields and geometric abstraction. Closer up, it's about subtle textures, intuitive mark-making, playful scribbles and remnants of colour. The blending of these two elements invites the viewer to experience a calm while stimulating, visual response. // Andrea Stajan-Ferkul is a Canadian artist whose work conveys a sense of experimentation through the use of paint, fabric collage and abstract mark-making. While not exclusive to fashion, dresses have been a compositional focus throughout her oeuvre. With an emphasis on timelessness, her series of dress paintings shift between realistic representation and interpretive impressions. In contrast, her series of abstract works embrace minimalism, considerate to a restrained palette and composition. Stajan-Ferkul began her career in fashion advertising before shifting her focus to fine art in 2000. Her work has been exhibited widely through galleries and art fairs, and hangs in private and public collections across Canada, US, Europe and Asia. keywords: abstract, minimal art...
