Painting the Trees Through the Forest Oil Painting

Joseph Gyurcsak OPA / AIS Artist Statement

“I look at my paintings as a vehicle for creating a sense of light, atmosphere and mood. I continually seek subject matter that is naturally being played out instead of posed. I want my subjects to look fresh, I want them to have a breath of life in the two dimensional realm. If the painting has emotion and expression beyond the technical aspects that were employed to create it then it is a success! It is my hope that the viewer should lose their awareness of the boundaries of the painting. I am after the fleeting moments of life, those moments that happen sometimes in a quick glance!”

“My paintings express a sense of light, atmosphere, and mood; they transcend the techniques that were employed to create them and breathe the very light and atmosphere they were painted in. I like to capture the fleeting moments of life; the sublime manifestations of light and color, their aesthetic influences on the subject.”
