From the Series: Photographic Paintings Using Light and Micellaneous Liquids

2014

3.25 x 4.25" unique dye diffusion transfer prints

_

Photographic Paintings Using Light and Miscellaneous Liquids is a series combining timed exposures (5-20 min) in ambient light, with an extraneous liquid applied to the film plane before development. This liquid is completely unnecessary and superfluous to the process. However, the unnecessary liquid stimulates a chemical reaction that produces an almost painterly layer incorporated into the original, photographed image. The result is a formal collision between the scientist’s calculations and the artist’s brush.

Magnolia

1899

Oil on canvas

181.9 x 99.7 cm

___

This painting shows the London-based artist’s daughter holding a sprig of magnolia blossoms, which in Victorian literature were often a sign of a character’s love of nature. The costume and the stylized fleur-de-lis motifs that decorate the green backdrop suggest a somewhat contrived presentation of the girl as a “dress-up” princess. The artist’s only child and one of his favorite models, Kitty Shannon (1887–1974) appears in many of his paintings. She later wrote several books, including an autobiography, published in 1933.
