Mollie Greenberg

Statement

My body of work is driven by my inner child. I love color and creating juxtaposition between the use of paint and observational painting.  I use a loose application of paint that carves out the subject, as well use of synthetic color, creating tension between realism and abstraction.

I use acrylic paints which allows me to maintain vibrant color, additionally I play with different mediums to create layers of transparency as well as wetting agent to create a watercolor like texture and fluidity.  I also love acrylics as I paint quickly,  and acrylics allow me work at my desired speed.  

 My compositions and color are greatly influenced by pop artists like James Rosenquist and Tom Wesselman. Through the iconic imagery used as well as the visual jokes created in their harmonious and almost fluid like compositions, speak to how I move through my own work. 

At its core, my work is undeniably silly, but there is a  level of confrontation within each piece.   My work is meant to speak to the inner child through the playful application of paint and color.
