Very interesting, thought provoking, beautiful – your use of paint is amazing!
Fantastic work Jereme. It’s really interesting to see how it’s developed. I love the brushstrokes, the compositions, the treatment and especially the palettes you’ve chosen to work with here. They seem to suit the meaning of the images.
beautiful – a great example of subtlety in the artist’s use of medium and message; the refined palette offering a sense of stillness. and Emma’s excellent commentary helps explain how artists can suggest rather than overtly spell out meanings and subject matter – a quiet power that occurs in the best work – whether imagery, music, writing or other.
Thank you for this insight into Jereme’s work Emma, it is useful to have examples of such work to inspire and encourage. Thank you Jereme for your thought provoking work, I love the lemons particularly!
thank you for sharing this work – I loved the use of paint, subject matter and composition to convey mood and feeling – very inspiring and thought provoking.
Go Jereme! Nice to see your work here again!

Fascinating, and really useful messages about subtlety which are making me think.
On a practical note, it is interesting how he uses white. Mixing pale colours gives the paintings a high key feel, where not so pale colours become the darks even though they are not truly dark in themselves..This is a fascinating device which allows the marks to hover. Using white creatively is very hard and Jereme does it extremely well.
Very interesting work – lots to reflect on. Thank you for sharing this.
