The resulting coolly composed canvases evoke the essence of the Ancients subtly interlaced with Jungian archetypes and Zen-like spirituality. Taking clues from architecture and religion, His paintings are a reflection of art and faith, blended with the feelings of the paintings as they develop. I like a body of work to have a similar palette, to balance the warm with the cool, to balance color and temperaturegiving the body of work precedence over the individual. Referencing artists as diverse as Odilon Redon and Salvador Dal as influences, His subtle landscape paintings with their muted, dream-like palette have surprising strength. Their beauty belies the undercurrent of intellect that flows electrically through their elegant compositions. One look and its as if the painting is your subconscious come to light; close your eyes and the painting is refulgent in the afterimage.http://society6.com/joshuasmithfineart/New-Work-jwhttp://society6.com/joshuasmithfineart/New-Work-jw
