Iris Field-Original impressionism floral landscape oil painting-contemporary Art
By Denis Ribas
Located in London, Chelsea
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
"Iris Field" by Denis Ribas is a captivating original French Impressionism landscape painting that transports viewers to a world of textured beauty and vibrant colors. Executed with textured oil on canvas, Ribas's brushstrokes create an immersive experience, inviting the observer to lose themselves in the enchanting Iris Field under the embrace of a sunset sky.
The medium of textured oil adds a tactile quality to the painting, allowing Ribas to convey the intricate details of the iris flowers and the dynamic texture of the landscape. The impressionistic style is evident in the artist's expressive strokes, capturing the essence and immediacy of the scene.
The focal point of the painting is the Textured Iris Field, where the iris blooms stand tall and proud, their textured petals creating a mesmerizing dance of purple and green hues. The textured surface adds depth and dimension, allowing the observer to feel the tactile richness of the floral landscape. As the sun sets, the sky becomes a canvas of warm oranges, casting a gentle glow over the iris field.
The color scheme, dominated by shades of purple, green, and orange, mirrors the vibrant hues of an iris field bathed in the golden light of dusk. Ribas's skillful use of color captures the magic of the moment, where nature's palette is at its most vivid.
Denis Ribas's signature graces the painting, marking it as an authentic piece of art ready to be displayed. "Iris Field" is an invitation to immerse oneself in the textured beauty of nature, where each brushstroke tells a story of the changing seasons and the timeless allure of the iris.
This exquisite artwork is currently available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online. Art enthusiasts have the opportunity to bring the vibrant charm of an Iris Field into their living spaces, where Ribas's artistry captures the essence of nature in every textured detail. Immerse yourself in the beauty and texture of "Iris Field," where the magic of a sunset sky meets the timeless elegance of impressionism.
Artist Biography:
Born in 1954 in Perpignan, Denis Ribas draws inspiration from his Catalan heritage and a childhood infused with his father's passion for nature. Painting exclusively outdoors, Ribas uses pure linen canvas, manually nailed, stretched, and coated. The paint itself adheres to multi-centenary techniques, with supplies sourced from Bruno Charvin's workshop, Denis Ribas' preferred and exclusive supplier. Notably, a yellow hue in the palette has been christened "Jaune Ribas."
The thickly applied paint and the expansive color palette harmonize to create a captivating piece of contemporary art. Each painting is a single, uninterrupted creation, reflecting Ribas' commitment to never altering a finished piece—a testament to the spontaneity and authenticity of his artistic process.

Artist biography
Born in Kansas City, the multi-media artist, poet and playwright Paul Jenkins began his studies at 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 Jenkins’ work springs from a wealth of eclectic influences. Some of his earliest works included what he called "interior landscapes", influenced by ancient natural forms. Frequent student visits to the Frick Collection in New York fostered a love of the great masters, and 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...

Image size: 40.6 x 30.5 cm
Framed: 58 x 49 cm
Unique
Series: The Self Representation of Light
Signed and dated in pen on verso
© Michael Jackson
The Luminograms are made from the most simple of procedures - directing light onto silver gelatin photo paper. However, it is that simplicity that allows Jackson to adapt his own way of thinking into the making of the finished piece. As he says, it's as close as he can get in photography to painting.
After moving to Wales in 2007, Michael Jackson spent the next eight years creating an extensive study of a single local beach - Poppit Sands. After years of examining the beach, he realised that in effect he was studying himself and his reaction to the beach - rather than the physical landscape. He then started looking at the beach as simply a way of dividing up the camera frame - the lines and curves and focal points. It was during the long period of producing Poppit Sands prints in the darkroom that he discovered how to start making luminograms.
"I feel strongly that the luminograms represent a form of moulded light. You use your process to direct and mould the light and the paper receives it in its own magical way and translates that into a form that seems fantastical but also it has one foot in reality. The piece itself so often seems like a photograph of a sculpture, when it fact it is neither. I imagine that I am taking something that you cannot feel and I am making it appear in a seemingly three dimensional form that is balanced and controlled. Just like sculpting clay." Michael G Jackson...
