Jury - 2023 CHESTER COUNTY STUDIO TOUR
Stephanie Gibson
Already judged, going to next artist...
Painting




In her life and in her art, Stephanie Gibson is driven by stubborn gladness: a determination to find beauty and hope in a challenging world.
She works with acrylic paint, which allows her to experiment with thick and thin applications. By building layers of color, she creates visual texture that often mimics the surface of timeworn objects.
Her work is an interplay of freedom and control. She starts with an initial layer of expressive marks which describe her range of motion. As she builds layers of paint, each application moves the painting toward a more organized composition. The resulting work lies somewhere between geometric and lyrical abstraction. There is a tension in creating order without losing the expressiveness of early marks. In this dynamic, geometry becomes a frame on which to hang explorations of color and texture. Stubborn gladness, in the form of joyful color, is the heart of every painting.
