ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This is from a series of paintings combing both abstraction and realism. I start with an abstract base created using a technique known as decalcomania. This involves putting very wet paint onto a smooth and resistant primer. The paint is then pressed against the surface using a variety of materials, often sheets of plastic. When the plastic is peeled away the paint forms very intricate lines and shapes. I never know what forms it will take. I then spend time looking at the result which will often suggest more realistic possibilities. I will then integrate the suggested realistic concepts onto the abstract background. I sometimes choose not to intrude onto the abstract base and just leave it as an abstract painting. The paint itself directs me. This painting is designed to be frameless. The painting is thin and the mounting on the back makes it float one inch from the wall. It can be framed if you wish to do so.

Edward Joseph
United States
East Hampton artist Edward Joseph was born in Brooklyn, NY and attended Pratt Institute. He currently resides in the Napeague dunes in Amagansett. He has been a dedicated artist for over fifty years. He has in that time exhibited his work in many of the most prominent venues on Long Island including The Elaine Benson Gallery (Bridgehampton, NY), The Whitney Artworks (Greenport, NY), Gallery North (Setauket, NY), The Islip Art Museum (Islip, NY), The Firehouse Gallery at Nassau Community College (Garden City, NY), The Parrish Art Museum (Southampton, NY),The Anthony Giordano Gallery at Dowling College (Oakdale, NY), The Chase Edwards Gallery (Bridgehampton, NY) and The University Gallery (SUNY Stony Brook, NY) as well as shows at Plymouth State College (Plymouth, NH), The Culinary Institute of America (Hyde Park, NY), Excel Fine Arts (New York, NY), and The Homestead Gallery (New York, NY). Edward's work is influenced by his love of the outdoors. He is particularly drawn to scenes of secluded and pristine shoreline, wetlands and dunes that are unblemished by mankind. Edward sometimes aims to elicit the portent of imminent intrusion and contamination of these ideal glimpses of nature. This subtle foreboding, masterfully conveyed, protests the almost inevitable desecration mankind is sure to wreck in its insatiable appetite for space. In other pieces Edward beautifully captures the lush softness and reflective tranquility to be found in remote wetlands and the dunes of the pine barrens of Eastern Long Island. In these works Edward is particularly skilled at depicting the reflections and lushness where water and land meet. Another striking visual effect of Edward's work is his method of surrounding these fragile ecosystems with what seems like an infinity of time and space reminding us of our ultimate smallness in this vast universe. These pieces bring us with the painter as he experiences these intimate slices of nature not readily accessible to most of us. His most recent works depict the dunes of East Hampton.
