Artist Statement for Ron Roland
|
|
|
My trees are larger than life, and dwarf the dwellings underneath. The trees are unnatural, synthetic - more like sculptured topiaries than wild things. I work with acrylics wet-on-wet & do not use a medium to obtain the heavy texture, but rely solely on the paint, building up the texture & blending at the same time. I choose colors that challenge the human eye and sometimes make it dance around in its socket. A work of art does not begin and end with the artist alone so I want my paintings to evoke participation. I want the viewer to be plunged into the scene by the simple act of viewing. Specifically my goal is to jolt the viewer into serenity.
