About the Item
"Loyal One" is an original painting on canvas by James Oliver measuring 48in x 48in.
James Oliver is a painter whose precise visual language pushes the tradition of twentieth century abstraction into a contemporary context. Oliver is a conceptually driven formalist whose work is inspired by his dreams and emotional states, which he abstracts into an undetermined and subjective viewing experience by emphasizing line, color, and form. Even as Oliver turns to a figurative practice in recent series, rendering cultural icons like chopper bikes, Pontiac Firebirds, and his childhood poodle in detailed line drawings, these representations similarly evoke broadly accessible affects abstracted from his mental landscape.
Born in Upstate New York, raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico, son of an advertising executive, Oliver was exposed from a young age to visual art from its most commercial applications to more visceral exponential lives.
“This is my first painting of an animal or a pet. I grew up as a child with poodles in the house (always had a dalmatian as well). I felt inspired one day to paint a poodle because of a dream I had at the time about an adorable poodle we had.” -James Oliver
Shipping note // If you would like a shipping estimate for this canvas rolled, rather than stretched and framed, to save on shipping costs, please contact us directly (click "request more info"). In this case, the buyer would take care of re-stretching and re-framing the piece once received. We recommend bringing the artwork to a local professional for this process.
