Joellyn Ross


Cerulean Arts Collective Member Joellyn Ross
My painting represents an ongoing challenge to respond creatively to and to manage the tensions between order and disorder. It is a process of ongoing exploration, using color and form to create an emotional response.
My method is an open-ended inquiry using color, geometric shapes and pattern to create an engaging visual experience. I am inspired by color, by geometric forms and architecture. I want to stimulate visual meditation, facilitated by color and form which together create depth. 
Most of my paintings are made with acrylic, although I occasionally use watercolors. I find it helpful to photograph my works in process, and then to edit them on my iPad, which allows me to rehearse changes. My process is one of ongoing experimentation, such that my paintings go through many iterations before they are finished.
