Jeremy Geddes' Surreal Paintings
Based in Melbourne, Australia Jeremy Geddes
is a brilliant artist who aims to portray extremes of emotion in his
work. Having studied painting in the early 90s, Jeremy initially worked
in video games as an art director. In 2003 he returned to painting full
time and has since had his paintings published and exhibited around the
world. Jeremy’s paintings are highly detailed and often take
months to complete. He starts with a preliminary painting where
composition, color and tone are resolved. Then the painting is drawn up
and mapped out using washes of color before painting begins. Once the
main painting is completed he applies glazes and altering tones, adding
depth to color and texture.
Jeremy is most well known for his paintings of cosmonauts floating in empty landscapes, but I most like his surreal works of girls bursting into rooms through windows and walls.
