Jimmy Law

My painting style and technique is self-taught. As an

artist, I force myself to refrain from performing perfectly

controlled detailing strokes and instead focus on

performing bold, strong strokes using only larger brushes.

I often load my brushes with paint so that it would run

when I apply enough pressure onto the canvas. I simplify

and lessen the numberof strokes as to not get caught up

in trying to create every little detail.

My aim is to give the viewer just enough information and

let them fill in the detail. I aim to create energy and life in

my work by incorporating the use of contrast and good composition. When done in such an expressive style, it

often creates rather bold, energetic and dramatic

images.
