Jeremy Geddes

Having studied painting in the early 90s, Jeremy initially worked in video games as an art director.  In 2003 he returned to painting full time and has since had his paintings published and exhibited.  He has recently returned from an exhibition in Hong Kong with Ashley Wood.

Geddes’ paintings are highly detailed and often take months to complete.  Each painting starts with a preliminary under-painting where composition, color, and tone are resolved.  Then the composition is drawn up and mapped out using washes and layers of color, and then heavier layers.  Once those layers are completed, he then applies glazes, altering tones and adding depth to color and texture.

Jeremy is most well known for his paintings of cosmonauts floating in empty landscapes.  He is expanding on this theme in his next series of paintings; which will be completed in November 2010 for his second exhibition in Hong Kong.
