While perusing Canadian Art Junkie<\/a>\u00a0 I lucked out by finding out about Stewart Jones. Now, here’s a painter after my own heart – Jones is a Toronto-based artist whose paintings of cityscapes focus on the interplay of manufactured and natural environment by exploring light effects in urban spaces.<\/p>\n

Stewart Jones – CM COMPOSITION#1<\/p><\/div>\n

I paint what I know. I am interested in what happens in shadows. How the cityscapes cut the sky. As the minutes and hours pass through a day, the character of a space changes. I paint to invite you to see for yourself.

Stewart Jones – KINGSTON WALKWAY<\/p><\/div>\n

Jones’s comment on how the character of a space changes throughout the day is a very interesting one. A street scene can look majestic \u00a0or depressing depending on the light conditions, and different angles of light through the day highlight different details. Don’t even get me started on how great a row of mixed-purpose buildings look after a sudden burst of sun during the golden hour after a good rainstorm. Compare that to the almost introspective effect of twilight, or the wistfulness of dawn.<\/p>\n
