John Sherman Large 36"x36" - Bayside Red Trees - Acrylic on Canvas Painting. Gallery Wrapped Canvas in excellent condition. Measures 36"x36"x1 1/2". Weight 7 pds. John Sherman describes his paintings as “breakthroughs from the archetypal world”. Others have described them as “psychologically significant” works of “contemplative artistry”. He also describes himself as a “participatory expressionist”, an artist with a self-conscious rapport with the phenomenal world. His paintings utilize texture, color and symbolism to produce works or representational expressionism, sometimes crossing the edge into abstraction. Not formally trained in the fine arts, Sherman’s methods of constructions and fabrication are largely self-taught, but informed by careful study of modern media using stable archival processes. Most of his paintings are multi-layered constructions of collage, acrylic, sand and other complementary media. The surfaces are progressively built up and sanded down and frequently "cracked" using one or more of 6 different techniques. The final layers may include thin glazes of oil and varnish, hand rubbed into the surface. Sherman enjoys working with clients on commissioned requests and has painted for private collectors and artists in the film and music industries. His work is in numerous private collections around the United States. He is represented by The Hunter-Wolff Gallery in Colorado Springs Colorado and The Mary Martin Gallery, Broad Street, Charleston SC.
