Artist Statement:
Funky. Lyrical. Poetic.
Vibrant. Colorful.
Sophisticated. Reverential.
The art of SKIP HILL is a
savory mojo gumbo of artistic
and cultural influences
gleaned at the apron strings
of Romare Bearden, Picasso,
and Van Gogh. Patterns, images
and forms drawn from Negro
folk art, Japanese Ukiyo
prints, Russian Icons, the
Italian Renaissance and
tribal textiles and tattoos
are tossed into the mix.
Skip Hill is cooking with
color, mixing methods,
exploring, tasting, erasing,
adding seasonings of Art
History and healthy doses of
Soul. He is creating paintings
that are a visual mishmash of
Pad-Thai and collard greens
sprinkled with Jesus. His work
is a two dimensional cacophony
of classical
music-karaoke-Jazz and
Neo-Afro Baroque .
"PAINTING IS SACRED PLAY and
ritual for me, as much as
dance, worship, music or
cooking a paella in it's
process. The process calls me
to be open to Intuition,
Divine guidance, Memory and
the gifts that flavor my
painting practice. Long story
short, this is where the bread
of my blessings are.
