ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Schiele has always been an artist who I have admired and for this series of oils on canvas, I have selected a number of Schiele’s sketches/works on paper and developed in oils. I’ve maintained to keep the poses/composition as close as possible to Schiele’s original sketches but tried to render the figures less doll-like or angular and made the colour more vibrant. Two figures 2-11-20 is a double female figure study on canvas in oils using a muted palette contrasting with areas of vibrant colour. The work is painted with a fluid application of paint and Produced quickly using expressive marks and stripping back allowing earlier layers to be visible. Giving them an ‘imperfect’ feel, which in turn simultaneously gives the work an exciting vitality and delicacy.

Thomas is an English painter based in Asia. His visceral works utilize the human figure/head juxtaposed with abstract mark making. This is achieved through the application of thick impasto paint, dragging and smudging the surface plus the occasional intervention of the "˜happy accident' or chance. All these elements contribute in the process of making or building a painting. This abstract quality is further emphasized by deliberate close cropping of his subject. The works also acknowledge certain aspects of the existentialist premise that one cannot fully know or experience the reality of another person, and that this separateness underlies our daily consciousness, hence the cropping and fragmented surface facilitates a way as to express this experience , as only a part of the subject is revealed. Although the works are representational and figurative they intend to suggest, rather than depict an accurate observation of his subject. This is more apparent as the viewer approaches the work, the painted surface dissolves into a seemingly unorganized arrangement of blotches and irregular textures.
