ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My work is grounded in the belief that there is an energy in nature that unifies and connects everything. I am fascinated by the emotions associated with the natural world. There is a pulse in nature that I continually endeavor to entrain and find resonance with. My work has a dream-like quality that transcends time. My paintings are about memory, color and the biomorphic shapes that I associate with landscapes that reside deep in my consciousness. Guided by the energy around me and my intuition, I work impulsively, allowing my gestures to turn into marks on canvas. My landscapes reveal themselves as I work, and a story begins to emerge; often centering on the enormity of the natural world; the power and strength of the land, and the ephemerality of the human experience. I am drawn to the feelings that colors evoke and the effect and intensity they have when they share space. Present in all of my work is my childlike, whimsical vocabulary of shapes that I continue to explore and develop.

Jocelyn Fine is a painter, art conservator and art educator. She received her BFA from the University of Vermont and then pursued a certificate in Painting Conservation at the Istituto Per l’Arte and il Restauro in Florence Italy. She holds a MS from Columbia University with a concentration in Architectural Conservation. Jocelyn’s work is held by many private collectors throughout the United States. Her paintings were featured in NJ Home, and NBC’s George to the Rescue. She comes from a multi-generational family of artists, filmmakers, collectors and gallerists. Her great-aunt was one of the first female gallerists in NYC (owner of the eponymous Rose Fried Gallery on Manhattan’s Upper East Side); her mother is a sculptor, one brother is a painter, another is a filmmaker and her sister is the head of an Art Finance company. Both Jocelyn’s adult children are also artists. She lives in NJ with her husband. My art is informed by my experiences as an art conservator, a teacher, a yogi and by growing up in a family of artists. Guided by the energy around me and my intuition, I work impulsively, allowing my gestures to turn into marks. I often paint with my hands, rollers, crayons, sticks or found objects. I love the unexpected and the accidental. Adding on and wiping away, each layer of paint and brush stroke represent a moment in time, aging and also being reborn. I am drawn to the feelings that colors evoke and the effect and intensity they have when they share space. Recently, I have been working on large scale paintings that explore my childhood memories, accessing emotions and sensations that reside deep in my consciousness. I am also very interested in the concept of place and my relationship to geography. I spent most of my childhood summers traveling in a blue Chevy van that my dad outfitted into a home for the 6 of us. Tables transformed into beds, draped netting became suspended sleeping cocoons for us kids. From this peripatetic home, we visited nearly every national park, crisscrossing the U.S., Canada and Western Europe. From 1970-85, we kept journals and recorded our adventures. Unlike my siblings, words did not come easily to me, but the vibration of colors, rhythm, shapes and forms of these magnificent places left indelible impressions, etched into my visual memory. These paintings all evoke places that I saw and the feelings they stirred in me.
