About this artwork
In “Open Window,” the man appears stolid as a statue while the woman behind him opens the window to let in some air. The white bird ostensibly has come through the window, and as in other pieces of mine, represents a new element of freedom. This piece pays homage to Morning Series, works by New York painter Leland Bell. In Bell’s paintings and preparatory drawings, a cat enters a room where a man and woman are just waking up in the morning. There’s…
the sense that they are both being startled into some realization. I studied with Stanley Lewis, one of Bell’s former students, and I think of Bell as part of my own artistic lineage.
Jeri Griffith
United States
Jeri Griffith is a painter with work rooted in a rich and varied personal history. She draws inspiration from experiences ranging from a childhood spent on a wildlife refuge to extensive travels as an adult especially in Latin America. Media she employs include acrylics, ink, watercolor, graphite, and collage. In her acrylic paintings, she applies thinly layered translucent color to achieve a look akin to stained glass. Her figurative, non-realistic style borrows from Romare Bearden, folk and Inuit artists, and Meso-American influences. She works intuitively, calling on imagery from her interior life, relationships, and the natural world. Her paintings radiate vitality, warmth, and a profound, infectious love for people, animals, and everyday beauty.
