About the Item
This multi colored figurative abstract painting is by David Skillicorn.
The female nude is a new direction for the artist. A bold and creative approach is the melding of the abstract with the figure.
Hw began his career as a documentary filmmaker and is a self-taught artist.
His process is one of applying paint liberally, carving and digging back into it, and building up layers.
He allows his intuition to be the primary driving force, although he makes hundreds of decisions as the work emerges.
Through the process of application and excavation Skillicorn“finds” the painting as much as “makes” it.
He strives for his work to convey something that is not so much experienced with the mind, as felt with the body…. in an intimate, visceral, and contemplative way.

In her recent paintings, she has been focusing also on the intangibility of the ethereal, the feeling of limitlessness and forever in the far view. She de-constructs found man-made imagery as a point of departure, re-interpreting it to suggest natural light, reflection, what lies beyond. She has always translated everything into a more reductive state, regardless of her source of inspiration, eliminating anecdotal markers, distilling information to try to get at the essence, the idea of it She is drawn to water imagery, the ambiguity of reflections and the multiple horizon lines they create, the contrast between flow and stasis. Dexheimer works with a limited palette , focusing on the sense of fullness, of atmospheric depth that emerges when a few colors interact and intermix. She has an extensive resume’.
