Jess Hurley Scott’s meticulous, photorealist paintings are painted entirely in reverse, by hand- on multiple layers of acrylic. Her proprietary technique of layering intricately painted panels spaced in custom acrylic framing, blur the line between two-dimensional painting and sculptural art. This recent work focuses on water; illusion, perception, and underlying emotional draws of the sea are all important themes. Scott uses her own photographic reference, deconstructing her composition into layers utilizing translucency and depth to create her own reality and a unique interpretation of landscape. Her scale ranges from near miniature scale vignettes to dramatic, sweeping seascapes.
