Jerald Ieans
Jerald Ieans is a contemporary artist who lives and works in St. Louis, Missouri. Ieans masterfully melds color, form and technique to create sensuous, yet precise, organic abstractions that recall his early interest in color-field painting and minimalism. Working in oil on canvas on wood, Ieans overlays large biomorphic shapes executed in colors that evoke personal meaning for him. Textured brushstrokes activate the composition and the forms appear to morph and shift within the confines of the strong rectangle of the support structure.
