"Sandstone" Painting by Jamie Rix

Size: 36 1/2" x 24" x 2 1/4"D

“As an abstract artist, my artistic style revolves around my fascination with color and form. I place great emphasis on the beauty and expression that color can bring, often layering different hues together to create visually captivating compositions. I find myself drawn to more modern aesthetics, preferring clean lines and distinct forms in my artwork. I am particularly drawn to the simplicity and precision that clean lines and forms offer. Whether incorporating geometric shapes or organic forms, I seek to create a sense of balance and order within my artwork.

"In my creative process, color takes center stage as the main element of my expression. I enjoy exploring a wide range of colors, and mixed media, experimenting with their various shades, tones, and combinations. By layering colors together, I aim to evoke a sense of depth and complexity in my pieces, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the visual experience."

"Inspiration for my work is taken from observing unique patterns of color in nature as well as everyday scenes as they pass by and become abstracted and mentally cataloged. Music plays a significant, almost synesthetic role in the process of making a painting. Mental images take on a softer and more lyrical appearance as they are translated onto the canvas with each mark, color choice, and brush stroke. I first began painting after visually seeing hues of the music I was listening to - patterns of color formed, then a composition in my mind and I was compelled to paint what I was experiencing."

"For me it’s all about tapping into that flow state and creating work that exudes joy, beauty, and sometimes the unexpected. Everything is energy, finding the right movement, vibration, and fluidity of making a visually striking composition that draws the viewer in while inviting them to explore the world of color with me.” - Jamie Rix
