In ‘Spirit of the Forest I’, Howard’s trees are condensed, pressed into a block-like form, the vibrant hues muted and smouldering beneath his still, white cloud.
Artist Bio
Working diversely within a broader abstract methodology, Stephen Howard’s nonrepresentational compositions of landscapes are paired with a precise handling of colour, light, and fine detail, imbuing his paintings with a colliding sense of tension and expression. His sensitive understanding of a vibrant palette in oils creates a luminosity that emphasises his true subjects – light and movement.
