Jeff Erickson
"On the Water XIV: Boat Life" Framed Contemporary Abstract Oil and Wax on Panel

About the Item

"On the Water XIV: Boat Life" is a framed oil and wax work on panel by Jeff Erickson, with an abstract composition with color blocks of rich cream and deep, cool blues. Erickson's process of using wax encaustic creates pieces that seem to glow from within, his color choices both vibrant and ethereal. This piece is finished in a silver scoop floater frame with a light-washed woodgrain effect on the frame’s interior and sides. Pricing includes the pictured frame. Unframed dimensions are 24 x 24 inches. About the artist: Erickson knew at an early age art would be a part of his life. His grandmother was an American Impressionist painter, and he would watch her create colorful brush strokes across the canvas. Erickson grew up traveling the world and living abroad with his family that allowed him to visit museums across the world, and soak in images of faraway landscapes. Erickson’s art developed out of these experiences, with an eye towards texture and abstraction. His paintings have a minimal and literal landscape element, capturing and conveying the textures of life. “The experience of painting is a great escape from the complexities of life, and I always find myself creating an abstract scene of peacefulness, relaxation, and calmness. I’m drawn to water, the sea, the ocean, and these feelings show up in my abstract landscapes. I paint with oils and wax medium on canvas, gessoed hardboard, and paper. I’m able to create multiple layers of translucent colors and through the process of scratching, distressing, and dissolving, I’m able to capture depth and feeling within the painting. With each painting, I start with no end game. I allow the painting to develop and see where it leads me.”

  • Tributaries Abstract River Oil Cold Wax Original Bonnie Zahn Griffith Painting
    Located in Whitefish, MT
    "Tributaries" by Bonnie Zahn Griffith, Oil and Cold Wax Medium on Wood Panel, 18" x 18" unframed, 20" x 20" framed in a modern black frame with hanging wire included. Known for her plein air pastels, Bonnie also does some amazing abstract pieces like this one. Bonnie Zahn Griffith is an artist of the western landscape, working in oils and pastels. The rich pigments of pastel and oil allows her to create paintings that have the brilliance and the bold color we see in the landscapes of the western United States, giving her unlimited options to create. These mediums allow Griffith to bring depth and texture, light and mood into her paintings. "My goal is to create work that draw the viewer in to experience and imagine the time of day, the temperature, the sounds, the smells. I want the viewer to experience the work and get lost in it – if only for a moment. My love of the landscape prompts me to paint it. I look for a story to tell when I look at the sagebrush hills, the lush river lands, the wheat fields, the intense greens of spring in rich mountain valleys and the ever changing colors of the desert. My mediums allow me to tell that story with strong color and intensity." As a child of artist parents, Griffith grew up on a ranch near the Missouri Breaks in central Montana. They lived in a remote area and that allowed for a lot of self-directed entertainment - drawing, painting, reading, horseback riding and daily ranch chores. Griffith was a self-proclaimed artist at age 5, getting into her mother's paints and paper. Landscape shapes, texture and color were observed and studied. Famous artists like Russell, O’Keefe and Payne were favorite sources of reference. "I don't remember ever being "bored" because there was always something to do that interested me! Pretty much all of that stuck with me through a career in Radiology Sciences; showing work in galleries and exhibits during that time. In the mid 1990's my art became a full time endeavor." Bonnie Zahn Griffith has studied with instructors such as Robert Moore, Lorenzo Chavez, Ned Mueller and others in the quest to strengthen and develop her style of representational work. Griffith is a signature member and the Secretary for the Pastel Society of the West Coast, a signature member of and past President for the Northwest Pastel Society, member of the Landscape Artists International (juried membership), Plein Air Painters of Idaho and American Impressionist Society. She has served 7 years as the chair for the Meridian (ID) Arts Commission, has served as the Executive Director of WaterWorks Art Museum, Miles City, MT and curator for several galleries. Griffith also teaches workshops in plein air technique, pastel painting techniques (Studio and Plein Air) and multimedia art. She works out of her studio in southwestern Idaho and paints plein air throughout the Rocky Mountain region, the western US...
