Featured Artist: Jeffery Bishop


We’re into this futuristic, anthropomorphic watercolor art by modern abstract artist Jeffery Bishop. The subtle color palettes with the slightly ominous foregrounds are just the thing for a rainy day (well, any day, actually, but rainy in particular).



From his artistic statement: “The work of the last few years affirm a commitment to abstraction while suggesting different types of codified visual information in complex states of flux. Enigmatic and distorted forms float and intersect in fluid and ambiguous space. Figure and ground are sometimes distinguished by strong matte and gloss contrasts adding a visceral physicality to the surface of the paintings. I aim for a certain kind of humor in the anthropomorphic quality of some of these forms. Might they be bodies without organs? Organs without bodies?” More art here.
