Jeff Erickson: Midnight Light

Jeff Erickson, Midnight Light, Oil and Wax on Panel, 48 x 48 inches

 

Midnight Light by Jeff Erickson delivers a feeling of calm while offering a bit of mystery. Icy blues set off the crimson tones that emerge from underneath the surface. Erickson achieves his texture and sense of depth by manipulating layers of oils and wax. He uses a variety of techniques including scratching, distressing, and dissolving. Erickson focuses on the creative process rather than the outcome: “With each painting, I start with no end game. I allow the painting to develop and see where it leads me.”
