About the Item

"Shipwright" by Megan Gibbons, oil on canvas, 36 x 36 inches, (Framed Size: 37.5 x 37.5 inches) $3100. - My work focuses on the meaningfulness in ordinary moments. The beauty of common, transitory situations. I have always gravitated toward figurative painting. I love to watch people, especially when they are lost in thought or unaware of being observed. Their gestures and mannerisms are absolutely fascinating to me. My goal is to capture a typical moment through posture and prop, an emotion through color and composition. Lately, I have been working with a combination of vintage photographs and hired models. Some of my fondest memories are sifting through layers of old family photos with my grandmother. These images are an imprint of the past, lost or forgotten memories; they have a compelling power to tell a story while also inviting the viewer to create scenarios of their own. The figures and landscapes evolve into new personas and atmospheres. The images are heavily layered and abstracted, much like our own memories. I use these found, created and inherited images as a catalyst for my work. - Megan Gibbons
