A common criticism of abstract art is the often muttered “My child could make this..” This turn of phrase points out the ignorance of the critic more often than the lack of skill of the artist. When composing a realist piece of art the artist must consider proportion, balance, contrast, color, and weight. All these aspects must work in harmony to create a visually pleasing work of art, each aspect applied with intention and evoke different meanings, emotions, or experiences when looking at a piece. Now consider the task of applying those same aspects to evoke those same emotions without the help of a tangible representation. How do you evoke anger without referencing real life, imagine trying to convey the peacefulness of a landscape without trees sky or earth? This is the world in which Stephanie Clayton creates her art. Expertly weaving the abstract emotions and feelings into a canvas. So come with me as we go and meet Stephanie Clayton.
