About Jason Anderson
"My art career started with a stained glass apprenticeship - during which I was lucky enough to work on restoration projects such as York Minster, Gloucester and Wells cathedrals. I quickly progressed onto design work which taught me to compose and stylise subject matter around a 'jigsaw' of painted glass - an approach which still drives my work today. I am fascinated by colour and work with a strong palette to create deep impasto effects with the paint. I relish the often frantic nature of mixing and arranging the paint in thick impressionistic daubs, and submitting to a process that creates its own detail and form. This forces me to be bold and decisive; it also produces a kaleidoscope of shape and tone (reminiscent of stained-glass) which portrays the ever-present movement and energy found in nature. This approach creates a painting which, like the landscape, is constantly changing. So, as you move around the room and the ridges of paint catch the light, there is always something new to see."
Jason Anderson (he/his) was born in the United Kingdom in 1970.
I quickly started painting with a palette knife as I love the textures and shapes it creates. I found (along with the impressionists) that if the colors and tone are right the form isn’t that important – the brain would fill in the gaps.
