Indepth Arts News: "methid: Paintings for Lucid Dreams" 2003-03-01 until 2003-03-23 66balmy San Francisco, CA, USA United States of America
Jonah Burlingame, a San Francisco native raised in Northeast Ohio, represents a third generation in a family of artists. His clean, abstract works have gained much attention in San Francisco, including being featured in the home design catalogue, Design Within Reach. Since 1996 Jonah has been using his signature technique of painting with a squeegee and suspending each layer of paint in varnish to create paintings that harmonize within a high design environment. His work combines organic color textures with formal structural elements, which beg the viewer to imagine a world beyond the window his paintings provide.
Raymond Difley considers himself to be an abstract expressionist. Moving in a new direction from his beginnings as a figurative artist, Raymond believes his current body of work to be an extension of the face and form. Using colors that interact and react with one another, as well as incorporating things like rice paper and wax into his work, allows the viewer to relate to his paintings on many levels. Raymond’s bold pieces combine an abstract assortment of vivid colors and textures – resulting in intricate, dramatic works.
