JULIA CHANCE
contemporary paintings
When painting at a large scale I particularly enjoy the fact that the whole body needs to move to create the marks.
In order to keep a feeling for the composition as a whole, you also have to keep stepping backwards and sideways to create a distance from the work in order to see it properly, meaning that you occupy the space of the studio in a very different way.
I developed the surface of these paintings by working very freely at the outset to build up layers of paint which then gave me a base from which to build, excavate and develop a composition.
Some of these paintings were begun with a specific landscape in mind which then informed both their palette and their composition. In other examples, the landscape idea emerged through the painting process and relates to either an imagined or an actual experience of a particular landscape.
