Jackson Hammack |

For his second exhibition with Craighead Green Gallery, artist and long time Dallas resident Jackson Hammack presents a new body of acrylic on canvas paintings. Hammack is obviously influenced by the contemplative portraits of David Parks and Modigliani. As stated by Hammack “My development as an artist has evolved hand-in-hand with the evolution of my spiritual journey. I am now drawn exclusively to painting figurative works. I endeavor to show the depth of the subject’s emotion, frequently through the metaphor of water, and the many faceted layers that portray the complexity that is life. The bolder colors I have begun to use in recent works probably represent the potential flowering of the subject’s consciousness. I give them hats symbolizing that they are always protected on their journey”. Hammack is self taught and has been represented by Craighead Green for nearly 4 years. |

For his first exhibition with Craighead Green Gallery, Dallas resident Jason Brown is presenting his new sculptures made of wood and metal with an auto paint finish. Brown sculpts metal and wood into interesting shapes and sizes and creates a strong relief from the wall. The color in his pieces is sometimes subtle and at other times very prominent. As stated by Brown “I believe that color and shapes can be very arousing and inspirational to the human psyche. The artwork I create is not only an extension of my persona, but also delivered to anticipate the creation of experiences and episodes for the viewer’s imagination to participate and flourish in. It is intended to investigate the playfulness and yet sincerity of their interactions inside the environment they have constructed.” Brown recently earned his BFA at North Texas University, graduating Cum Laude. |

For her second exhibition with Craighead Green Gallery, artist Jeanie Gooden, a self taught painter from Tulsa, OK, presents a very colorful and imaginative series of mixed media canvases. Gooden’s images are playful, insightful, and full of life and color. Gooden, who works in her studios in San Miguel, Mexico and historic down town Tulsa, enjoys the change in light and environment to explore how both affect the work produced. As stated by Gooden “My emotions and feelings appear in my painting. I try to find a “rhythm” to capture interest or evoke feelings. I often use graffiti-like “scribble” which I feel provides a movement that is not unlike the melody in a piece of music. For me, a painting is finished when each element joins with another in a way that gives the painting a voice. There are many emotions layered onto my paintings, some are easily translated and others not. Unbiased interpretation is my preference and is much more interesting than anything I could suggest.” Gooden received a BA from the University of Tulsa, OK. |
