The Beauty In Vintage Paintings By TS Harris

By Jeffrey Campbell


As an artist, being able to express thought both in concept and technique can take years even decades to master. Consistent practice and study is required. The way a piece is composed depends highly on what message the artist is trying to convey. Very few are able to do this elegantly and stand out from the crowd, in the world of contemporary art.

Contemporary art has a great way of depicting daily life of the modern times. A notable artist is TS Harris with works that can perfectly adorn any wall. Common themes of her work are mainly the daily lives of modern women surrounded by water. The way Tracey Sylvester has her brush strokes to depict water make a great illusion to the details of steady liquid pool water.

The painter is the product of hard work, dedication and two parents that are both professional artists too. Her works are meant for different kinds of venues and proves that contemporary art is not meant to be lazy, purely conceptual or done for shock value. Essentially her subject and composition are based off of vintage women and aesthetic.

This artist have genius ways of using all the shades of blue which gives here work so much depth. Swimsuits, women with red lips by or in the swimming pool is a great depiction of iconic and nostalgic. The pieces are heavily inspired by mid century snaps. The blue and purple hues often used to render the shadows give off a very bittersweet and nostalgic feeling which has become the trademark in many of her pieces.

Working with oil is tricky especially on a very large canvas, which is done for most if not all of her works. The palette she uses is generously uses blue and can do so much when it comes to showing the vintage vibe. Many of the most recent paintings show swimming pools and the way her colors just show how skin and pool water mix is just so well executed. The strokes are simple but have showed the right fluid movement.

Her choice of foreground and background give away how much the woman probably loves Los Angeles California, where she is based. Buying her work would be a great investment and would look good in any wall. She has a website that feature a schedule for her up coming gallery shows.

The original pieces can be expensive and that is all for good reason. The sizes can range up to 50 by 40 inches per work. But if you are a big fan, it may be a good idea to buy prints of some selected works that run at about 35 dollars depending on its size. The prints can go as large as 28 by 36 inches which makes for a great framed artwork to be adorn in the living room or the bedroom.

Her art seems to have a life of its own and if it were to move it is worth cinematic praise. These are after all referenced from film and photographs on mid century women. The lifestyle that her subjects lead are probably the luxurious kind, with their constant vacationing by the pool side or the beach.

The alluring thing about Harris is how the women feel like they have many secrets worth keeping. Her pieces successfully give us the beauty of women up close and frozen in a setting less complicated than what women have to deal with now. The secrets that all her subjects hold are as interesting as the color palette that the artist uses perfectly catching both aesthetic and essence of mid century high class female woes.
