James Kubiatowicz, Painter
My work is mostly about small moments and the people that get in the middle of it all. I constantly experiment with limited palettes, tones and textures and especially love the physical properties of paint - the brushes, the smell of turpentine, the touch of linen and the whole painting process."
"Kubiatowicz, who moved to Providence from Minnesota a couple of years ago, has a sharp eye for poses and gestures, as well as a breezy, light-filled painting style that at times recalls the great French Impressionist painter Edouard Manet. The combination gives his paintings of people eating out, dressing up and even making pizza a kind of quiet visual poetry."
