These multiple panel pieces are reductively painted. A monochromatic\, even layer of oil color is applied and then selectively removed with a cloth. This results in a brush-free photographic-like realism. Also\, the revealed grain of the wood suggests skin and/or contours of the body endowing the forms with a three-dimensional sculptural look. The illusion of depth & space is furthered by silhouetting the figures against a bright metal leaf background…a reverse chiaroscuro. The artist’s theatrical use of size & composition imbues these paintings with a taut level of emotional intensity. Fletcher’s acutely observed realism & objective approach to her figures also communicates a blunt psychological honesty & drama. This visceral aesthetic\, however\, still maintains an ambiguity. The nude is isolated to a neutral ground. Curves\, creases & bulk speak for themselves without distraction. Also\, dividing the pieces into multi-panels enhances the objectivity of the figure. \nLearn More: fletcherfigures.com \n  \nAbout John Snyder\n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				J Snyder\, “Transient Sunburst”\n				\n			\n		\n\nArt is about having an experience of the senses and emotions. Maine artist\, John Snyder\, continuously strives to open up those experiences in his work. Born in 1965 and having lived and grown in different parts of the United States\, John settled on an art career in his mid-twenties. Though he took art classes at the College of Visual Arts in Saint Paul\, Minnesota and Heartwood College of Art in Kennebunk\, Maine\, he is largely self taught. The book “The Natural Way to Draw”\, by Kimon Nicolaides\, played a major role in the development of John Snyder’s approach to drawing. The energy of his work reflects years of practice and a sincere dedication to the imagination. \nLearn More: johnsnyderart.com \n  \nDOWNLOAD: Barn Gallery Quick Calendar Of Events\n
