Jeremy M. Browne Signs on with Howard Gallery of Fine Art
Ontario Canada Artist Jeremy M. Browne awards exclusive representation to New Hope PA art gallery. Howard Gallery of Fine Art is pleased to have the exclusive rights in the United States.
New Hope, PA, June 15, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Jeremy M. Browne from Brampton Ontario, to exhibit at Howard Gallery of Fine Art
Howard Gallery of Fine Art is pleased to announce the opening of their exhibit featuring watercolor paintings by Canadian Artist Jeremy M. Browne.
This new exhibit, Brampton or Bucks? will leave you asking yourself whether the dry brush watercolors are local landscapes or from Jeremy M. Browne’s home town in Ontario.
Born in 1977, Jeremy grew up in the northern most part of Brampton Ontario, spending much of his childhood near the vast farming community of Central Ontario. Born to parents who had a genuine love.
When he began showing an interest in art he naturally gravitated towards the things that he knew best, open land, farming communities and the rocky shore lines. After learning various techniques in watercolor Jeremy found that painting the rural areas provided the greatest challenge and satisfaction. Painting these areas allowed him to explore the effect of light on the land. One of the greatest challenges was portraying various lighting effects, the early morning sunrise or a mid-winter evening. Lighting and the effects of light on the buildings in these areas provide him the passion to paint. How will these buildings and landscapes differ under the various times of the day? Trying to capture this provides new challenges each time he paints.
Most of Jeremy’s paintings are done in either late fall or winter. By painting the landscape in its barest form, there is nothing to hide the natural beauty. With summer he finds that the light is obstructed, and not allowed to shine at its purist form. “I have found that painting a winter landscape allows me to focus all of my attention on the light and mood of my painting, and not focus of the foliage of a tree. This allows me to explore new ways to produce interesting lighting effects in my landscapes.”
The method of painting Jeremy uses is known as dry brush. It is used to obtain a rough, textured appearance, such as the edges of beach grass, a rocky exposed hill surface, tree bark or sunlight skipping on the surface of water. A brush is loaded with relatively thick paint then lightly pulled over the dry surface of the medium. Some artists hold the brush with just two or three fingers at the very end of the handle so just the weight of the brush glides along the surface.
The paint adheres and covers only the higher points and ridges of the surface but stays out of the deeper areas. The method is especially effective on Rough and Cold Press (medium rough) paper. It is not very useful on smooth surfaces.
Jeremy’s watercolors will hang on the walls of the seven room, 3000 square foot fine art gallery with local artists Sandy Askey-Adams, Nancy Allen, Lauren Bellero, Dot Bunn, James Hamilton III, Susan Ketcham, Thomas Linker, Doug Hendershot, and Jonathan Steele, and Tim Wadsworth. National artists include Robert Birbeck, Cristine Cambrea, Elissa Gore, Jean Jack, Elaine Marinoff, Danielle Mick, Bonnie Mincu, Charles Rhinehart, Lavetta Rhinehart, Luiz Vilela , and more. Internationally recognized artist, Berc Ketchian, is an award winning painter from Istanbul Turkey, and Impala Lechner from Germany.
The attached watercolor is entitled “In the Workshop” It is 16 ¾ x 28 inches.
Howard Gallery of Fine Art & Custom Frame Shop is located at 77 W. Bridge Street New Hope, PA. Free off street parking makes it convenient to shop or browse. Hours are from 10am - 5pm Tuesday through Saturday & 12 - 5pm Sunday or by appointment.
