‘AFTERBEAT’
a SOLO Show by Artist and Printmaker - Steve Owen.
Starting points for the paintings are quite often the faded graphics in 50’s and 60’s magazines and often there is a fair amount of ‘pop’ ephemera buried in the resulting imagery. Paintings start fairly chaotic but are gradually ‘tamed’ however the temptation to reach a finished outcome too quickly is often difficult to resist. Chance marks and shapes are worked and overworked until the composition feels right.
The blank canvas is approached with some trepidation. A few painterly marks will hopefully become the start of a successful finished work, but there is little forward planning.
The limited edition prints in the exhibition are a new development sometimes combining collage, screenprinting and blockprinting techniques.
Steve Owen studied Fine Art Painting at Wimbledon School of Art before embarking on a career teaching Art in secondary schools and FE colleges.
He has exhibited in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and the Bankside gallery. This will be his first solo show at the Woodfield Pavilion.
