New Series






Here's a new series. I'm exploring painting techniques like live, on canvas, color mixing and dripping. I want to juxtapose these with hard, plastic geometric elements that are more familiar to me. I'm also working with disparate but connected color palettes for the two distinct segments of each painting. I'm very pleased with the progress so far. Here's some quick pics from my camera phone.

Virgin Series Complete!






I just finished up my "Revelation of the Virgin to the Artist" series! I am very happy with the paintings and the way that the project has grown. Each painting is titled as a different apparition of the virgin Mary. The series is intended to explore abstractions of traditional iconic paintings of these apparitions. Initially, i wanted the series to focus on Our Lady of Guadalupe and the images commonly associated with her. As the project matured I felt that instead of focusing on a single subject/context I should explore the phenomenon of her appearance to people around the world. More on this later. For now, here are the final pieces.

Check out my new website!

www.jacobiadams.com

I will continue to update the blog from time to time to show progress on new paintings. Finished paintings will be published on the website. So please check out both.

For now, the website doesn't have much content but I am working on this daily.
