Canadian Artist, Jeanie Riddle



(There's something about black in art that attracts me. I think it is probably because it is so unexpected. In the first instance, the scale of the blob does it for me. In the second, it's the dripping. This Artist was made known to me via Art MoCo. Here's what they had to say: "Montreal artist Jeanie Riddle was one of the twelve semi-finalists in Royal Bank of Canada's Tenth Annual Painting Competition. Riddle seeks out ideas from the life that surrounds her, but fixated on the notion of economy, she is able to distill her inspiration into simple forms. Scale plays an important role in Riddle's canvases, and indeed Yellow is a bold statement at 72" x 72". A large dark shape escapes from its field of yellow, unlike some of the other (not all) works in the same series that remain contained, dripping quietly.")

Feeling Nostalgic












(I recently heard the song "To Sir with Love", by Lulu and I haven't been able to get it out of my head ever since. Hence, the inspiration of this post. Source, first two images, Flickr; following images Wendy Bevan.)
