Artist Statement:
Muffin Ray works in heavy oils, pigments and waxes, creating engaging and temperamental impasto paintings. Passionate layers of bold color and underpainting are revealed, as geometric scoring etches into a nacreous surface, allowing glimpses of what may be layers and layers of semi covered images. Most work is innately created to reveal fragments of ancient mosaic and tile work, not unlike that of Byzantine baths and fountains. There are recognizable but subtle images of flora, though they do not interrupt the integrity of these avant-garde modern paintings. Paintings exhibit the fusing of Euclidean geometric theory juxtaposed with the primal act of artful expression. Canvasses are large, averaging 72x72 inches. Paintings are done in a barn studio in Peacham, Vermont called Workhorse. The artist shows locally in Vermont at Flynndog Gallery, Sohome in Burlington, and Catamount Arts in St. Johnsbury. Nationally, work is exhibited in Florida, New York, and The Rice Polak Gallery in Provincetown Mass. M. Ray has been a contributing member of the Provincetown art community for twenty years. Workhorse is open often by chance, always by appointment. Initial contact by email is preferred. muffinray@kingcon.com...
