Jessica Torrant - Original Abstract Art Paintings
Artist Statement: "My desire is to continue to explore the meaning of marks, the world of color chemistry, the dimensions of texture and the art of movement and gesture captured on canvas and paper. I try to paint without limits and work in several different distinct, abstract voices that all have their own mood and intention. Abstract painting is a communication with the unknown - it's an experience that is intimate, playful, meditative and soul searching all at once."
Artist Bio: Jessica Torrant’s abstract paintings reflect her love of color and intuitive painting style. Though classically trained at the University of New Hampshire where she received her BA in Fine Art, it was her time studying abroad at the University of California Santa Cruz that first introduced her to finding an abstract voice. After two decades of creative exploration, Jessica still enjoys experimenting with new mediums and techniques. Her current work in fluid mixed media is a reconnection with nature and reflective solitude, two aspects of her early life growing up on a farm as an only child that have been consistent friends and healers in her life.
Jessica was born and raised in Enfield, Connecticut and currently lives in the rural town of Ellington, Connecticut with her husband, author Robert Duperre.
