Ashley frost

Picture
  Ashley Frost is very much a location driven artist with many of his landscape works developed by painting and drawing outdoors. This method known as working plein air, involves painting and drawing on location and has a long tradition with artists from Edgar Degas to Richard Diebenkorn.
    For Frost, plein air painting captures a time and place through the shared vision of light. Arriving at dusk or dawn, Frost paints small compositional studies, capturing the sublime transition of light over the landscape. Usually working in the first light of morning and last light of the afternoon, Frost captures the transition of colour and light as it envelops the landscape. The dawn and dusk light for these works is paramount, enabling Frost to explore the lush spectrum of color in the landscape from palette to the finished works.
    Where sea meets land and night meets day Frost immerses himself in what he describes as a convergence of light and place. Frost’s paintings play on the relationship between bodies of water, buildings, roads, cars and vast skies through a communication of colour, light and reflective qualities. He builds up thick, luscious layers of paint to give his works a highly appealing tactile quality.
    Ashley Frost is a graduate of the prestigious National Art School, East Sydney, Australia receiving his BFA with distinctions in painting. He has travelled widely conducting research for his PhD candidacy and exhibiting his work around the world. He has worked as an exhibiting artist for 22 years with four solo shows in New York (2000, 2002, 2004 & 2016), and regular exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Texas. In 2003 he won the prestigious Kings Art Prize Acquisitive $10,000 and has been finalist in a number of national art prizes.
   
Frost is represented in Australia by Stella Downer Fine Art and internationally by Global Gallery. His work is included in a number of private and public collections both in Australia and abroad.
