What Makes A Ts Harris Oil Painting Stand Out In Contemporary Art
There are many reasons that make a certain art piece great. This can range form composition, message, technique, color and so much more. To get all of these elements and mix them together perfectly is quite the challenge that can take years or even decades to pull off. Having work that particularly stands out in the contemporary art scene can be difficult if not daunting to any artist.
Contemporary art has a great way of depicting daily life of the modern times. A notable artist is TS Harris with works that can perfectly adorn any wall. Common themes of her work are mainly the daily lives of modern women surrounded by water. The way Tracey Sylvester has her brush strokes to depict water make a great illusion to the details of steady liquid pool water. Tracey Sylvester Harris often works with many galleries. Have sold prints all around the country. Her work reminds you that there is still importance and beauty in purchasing art that is not meant for shock value, neither is it done in a lazy manner. The composition of her pieces revolve around mid century women and referenced from black and white photos and film shots.
This artist have genius ways of using all the shades of blue which gives here work so much depth. Swimsuits, women with red lips by or in the swimming pool is a great depiction of iconic and nostalgic. The pieces are heavily inspired by mid century snaps. The blue and purple hues often used to render the shadows give off a very bittersweet and nostalgic feeling which has become the trademark in many of her pieces.
The main medium for the paintings is oil, which is a bit tricky to use but over all very satisfying, when done correctly. Her palette and color choices are part of her trademark, setting composition and subject aside. It is still very difficult to pull off your eyes from the different shades of blue that you can see used not only in still water but also the shadows. She has a penchant of using strokes expertly to show the illusion of detail. The artist is based in Los Angeles. It may be evident in the sunny disposition of her work. But sunny does not necessarily mean that the work is essentially happy. In fact her concepts are all filled with mystery. This artist has a had a couple of gallery exhibits. Their schedules are on available on her website.
Her works are big and are often done on 50×40 inch canvases. If you don’t plan on having something as huge as this in your domain, there are prints available for sale. At sizes that range from 11×14, 16×20 and the largest in prints at 28×36 inches. Her art seems to have a life of its own. If it were to move it is worth cinematic praise. These are after all referenced from film. Photographs on mid century women. The lifestyle that her subjects lead are probably the luxurious kind, with their constant vacationing by the pool side or the beach.
Her color scheme gives off the same vibe that Edward Hopper, the artist for Nighthawks except that her composition essentially involves water, a woman and in a more close up view. In her more recent series, she intentionally does not show the subjects face and as the viewer which encourages you to think that the subject may be holding an important secret.
