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.
