Our senses are essentially delusional. A doorway yes but also a filter. So much chaos surrounds us yet we are able to make sense of it and live effectively. These paintings take this idea as a starting point. The background is usually layered atop an existing art piece or textured object, found or purchased at flea markets or on the street. The palette is generally decided already by what already exists but can be tuned to fit if an idea is in place before work begins. This first applied layer attempts to create a vast chaotic field, representative of the intangible energetic environment we live in. The foreground layers fracture this with lines forming primarily triangles with opaque fields filled in. This speaks of the reality we are aware of- filtered and diluted into something more tangible and readable. The pieces are generally created using Acrylic applied with knives, brushes only being used to finish the top opaque layers. Begun in Brussels in 2018 and continuing currently.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Greg Bryce is a contemporary Scottish multidisciplinary artist based in Spain. In late 2017, he made a significant decision to abandon his career as a landscape architect and botanical designer, fully embracing his passion for art. The shift led him to relocate from Edinburgh to Brussels, where he wholeheartedly dedicated himself to the exploration of his visual ideas.

Greg's artistic approach is characterized by a unique perspective on the world. His work is a manifestation of his ability to see the world differently, perceiving rhythm and color in everything. Combining his roles as a percussionist and an artist, Greg posits that all sound and space are inherently composed of rhythms. This viewpoint stems from a lifelong fascination with color, particularly bright hues, which manifested early on, as recounted by his family's recollection of his color-organizing antics in a doctor's office at the age of one.

Within his artistic practice, Greg maintains a base playfulness that seeks to order the world and celebrate color, emphasizing a primal creativity inherent in all individuals. Specializing in abstract painting and drawing, along with environmental site/material-specific installations, his work is a vibrant exploration of form and expression.

Greg's artistic journey has been marked by wide recognition, with exhibitions across Europe and residency periods in Brussels, Belgium, Assisi, Italy, and Gothenburg, Sweden. In addition to his artistic pursuits, Greg contributes to the art community as a co-op council member of The Society of Scottish Artists. His work draws inspiration from challenging fundamental principles, delving into aspects such as the human senses, self, space, scales, and, of course, rhythm. Greg Bryce's creations invite viewers to reconsider the world through his distinctive lens, where vibrant colors and rhythmic patterns intertwine to offer a fresh and dynamic perspective on fundamental principles.
