\"Painting
“Forever” by Frank Silva on view at Hoboken Arts Online Gallery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of my paintings is currently on view in an online exhibit at Hoboken Arts<\/a>. The group show titled \u201cTransformative, Picturing Life after the Pandemic\u201d showcases 40 artists and their interpretation of the theme. Each detail of the artwork includes the artist’s description of the piece and its relationship to the theme. Kudos to Hoboken Arts for using this format as the viewer is able to understand the thought process of the artist and what they’re experiencing during this time.

The concept<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My oil painting titled \u201cForever\u201d was painted in the early stages of the pandemic. Coincidentally, I had started a series of paintings with the theme of \u201cIsolation\u201d and \u201cSelf-Isolation\u201d. This painting deals with isolation in a social setting. I wanted to convey detachment and separation; the figures are together but not interacting with one another. The bar creates a physical separation between two worlds: the world of the patrons and the world of the bar area (or presumably, bartender). The patrons being unaware of what goes on behind the bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My painting process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to create an apathetic mood by using cold blues. I used varying hues and tones of blues and emphasized loose brushwork. The only yellows exist in the figures helping them to stand out against the cool blues of the rest of the scene. To draw the viewer’s attention even further, I added dabs of oranges only on the faces and hands helping to make the figures more relatable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The show is on view through May 31, 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
