Gorky

Jeanee Bourque

This abstract expressionistic painting is inspired by the artistic movement during Arshile Gorky’s life time. This work has a lyrical feel to it with a surrealistic quality as well. Biomorphic forms float throughout the canvas. The depth is created with the use of multiple layers of Golden acrylic paint and mediums. The paint is applied in an action painting style and the mediums have various layers of gloss and matte gels giving it shape and meaning. What does it make you feel? What do you see?

Those are the questions.

“Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot physically see with his eyes…

Abstract art enables the artist to perceive beyond the tangible, to extract the infinite out of the finite.

It is the emancipation of the mind. It is an explosion into unknown areas.”  quote by Arshile Gorky

As a lifelong student of the arts; the artist’s biography, art history and music are my biggest inspirations.
