Child of Mars

'Child of Mars' / Oil with Gold Metal Leaf Gilding / 7.3 x 5.1 Inches

SOLD

Howdy Folks!,.. 'Child of Mars' has finally got its final coat of nice glossy satin varnish!.

I loved experimenting with simultaneous warm and cool lighting effects on the model in this piece, and the composition was somewhat inspired by Euan Uglow's symmetrical minimalist figurative paintings..

Geometric repetition with the figure and throughout the composition was used to create harmony and balance, and I strived to create a tactile and exciting piece with the textured surface and by contrasting flat hues with the high realism of the woman's figure..

This piece is also available as an archival giclee print !

'Morning Visitor' alla prima oil painting by Jacqueline Gomez of dark interior bedroom with cat and woman sleeping lite by window sunlight.

'Morning Visitor' Oil on Canvasboard . Size: 7.4 x 5.1 Inches

Private Collection

It was great fun painting this alla prima oil of a subject matter so close to my heart, my mother and little cat (at the time) Crookshanks.
I wanted to really capture the early morning light as it shone brightly, illuminating the dark interior of my mother's bedroom. So, unlike the rest of the piece, the window area was left bare of any toned underpainting. The rest was painted with a limited palette over a toned ground of paynes grey, yellow ocher and raw umber.
Much of this toned ground is left uncovered in the final piece intentionally and background elements have been left with a rough unfinished look.

Had to say adieu to this one today. I was surprisingly sadder than usual to see a piece go. I was quite pleased at successfully achieving just the exact glowing emerald hue I had envisioned for the snake and this was also my first attempt at trying a new crosshatching technique with the oil paint too.. Despite this I could not feel more blessed with whom she is on her way to right now!.. Thank you so much for making a home for two!.. :)

'Life' inspired and improvised from Gustav Klimt 'Death and Life' Oil painting, by Jacqueline Gomez

Oil on Canvasboard / Size : 7.5 x 5.1 Inches

SOLD

Gustav Klimt has always been an inspiration with his mixture of realism, abstraction and symbolism, and is certainly one of my most favourite artists . Thus when I was conceiving an image that would best convey the concept I had in mind, I felt his well know ‘Death and Life’ painting was a perfect base , as any omissions (such as Death) or changes would be instantly recognized and enrich the concept of the piece.
Read more at 'Life' where I have included images of this piece in progress, so do check it out!..

Thanks for the visit!.. :)
