Jeffrey A Mendenhall has B.S. Degree in Art Education from Florida State University.
He has an A.S. Degree in Graphic Design from The State College of Florida. His body of art work incorporates the themes of color, emotions, brush textures and shapes. The body of work is reflective of his “Study of Colours in Abstract 20th Century Art Work”.
In college, he did a sketchbook/research project on the colors and emotions in
20th century art. Periods of art that were of focus: Fauvism, Abstractism, OP art, and
Color Field. The artists Piet Mondrain, Joseph Albers, Helen Frankenthaler, Wassily
Kandisky, Henri Matisse, Bridget Riley were the main focus of the research project. By studying Frankenthaler and other color field artists, he learned that color alone can invoke shapes and textures. The art work is created thorough the use of Corel Painter on a computer. His art work is revealing the culture of modern ar work
Corel Painter is a software that allows the artist to create work with different types
of media. The user can choose different brush sizes. Users can control the texture, depth, size, bleed, etc of the brushes. You can have a water color layer. There is a liquid oil layer.
In the layers and selections, one can control their brush work. A Wacom stylus pen on a pressure sensitive tablet is used to draw the artwork.
He creates slideshow movies about the development of pieces. He wants to show
