Jennifer Lashbrook
About the Artist
Jennifer Lashbrook is obsessed with color!!! She is intrigued by an over- examination of her subject matter. Lashbrook wants to dissect the image, survey the hues, values, and saturations and leave for the viewer a schematic of the color palette. As part of her artistic process, there is something about collecting that she loves. The trip to the hardware store, to gather her materials whets the appetite to create. The time Lashbrook spends organizing and cataloguing the swatches is meditative. The exploration of the subject matter and the scrutiny with which she discerns the slightest subtleties of color and tone challenges her. Each small piece of paper has an identifier of its color source, specifically cut to create for the viewer a digital-age impressionistic reference to a paint by number - Lashbrookβs adult version of a puzzle.
