Jack Tierney is a contemporary artist based in Cornwall, England. His works are influenced by the bold colors and brushstrokes of Fauvist and Post-Impressionist painters, as well as the fun and naïve characteristics of folk art.
'I’d say the nature of my process is the relationship between control and a lack of it. I often choose to tackle ideas as they form directly onto the canvas. (...) It often involves painting over things several times. That’s when you get up close and you can see every minute and monumental decision, there in the slithers of exposed paint between one layer and the next. That’s really where the painting is made.'
