J.E. Pipkin: Landscape Paintings J.E. Pipkin: Landscape Paintings
A selection of paintings in both vertical and horizontal format, the pictorial components within them may be described as abstract and representational. These components include the landscape and its properties, the sky and the earth. The abstract components described as frames, planes and colour fields are the structural devices used in the composition of the paintings to support and enhance the landscapes' natural elements. The additional and most active component in all these artworks is colour which provides both subtlety and drama. Its use, as a pigment, by association creates the means to recognise the natural elements perceived in the landscape.

Works may be viewed as contemplative, landscape abstractions conveying mood-related experiences or as a minimal representational definition of the landscape.
