Artist Talk with Vicki Vinton
Somerville Manning Gallery is pleased to present “Metaphors” a solo exhibition of paintings by abstract artist Vicki Vinton from October 11 - November 2, 2024.
Vicki Vinton’s paintings manifest energetic surfaces, a skillful use of color, and an earthy curiosity. The unique quality of her work blends a knowledge of art history and the fine arts with a vast array of technical skills learned from the applied arts. The finished piece is always a record of process and discovery arising from measured deliberation, reaction, spontaneity, and chance.
Vinton began her undergraduate work at the University of Denver where she majored in art and philosophy. After graduating, she attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Her creative journey continued at Longwood Gardens where she studied ornamental horticulture and design. Then, after a seven-year career in landscape design and installation, Vinton began a process of re-inventing herself, enrolling in The Finishing School to study applied arts with Ina Brosseau Marx before entering a twenty-year career in the Faux Finishing Industry.
Vicki Vinton has returned to the studio and lives and works in rural Pennsylvania.

    I love impressionism and XIX century art. Nice to know there are artists in the US painting in the impressionist style. Greetings from Colombia.

    Thank you for exploring Jamie's work. I am always excited when I come across a video on Andy or Jamie. I too have heard him say it is not up to him to reveal the meaning of his art; that is the responsibility of the viewer. Having said that, I must take exception with you saying Andy's work is all about death. My favorite A.C. quote is about winter being his favorite season. All I will say is, tempra and winter results in a more subdued painting. I will agree that NC's death has a major impact and the fact that so many of his models were older friends of the family that he documented their entire life and death. That is what I see in Andy's work. May I also be so bold as to suggest not saying Jamie reinvented himself. To me reinventing is something engineers do. I like to think artists evolve. Can you imagine an artist living for hundreds of years and looking at their work over the centuries. Sorry if I am being nit picky. That's why I have a big box of my grand children's artwork beginning with the first day they picked up a crayon. Thank you for showing us yet another side of Jamie.

    Didn't make it to the show and so pleased that we can see these wonderful paintings and also listen to the father and son team talk about their approaches to art. I second the fact that Jonathan is an historical scholar - he shares amazing thoughts with all of us. Thanks Somerville Manning Gallery and Greg and Jonathan Mort! Jennifer

    Very enjoyable! I am delighted to hear Philip Koch's remembrances about Edvard Hopper's studio and the power lines. So intimate! Talking about his color shape and abstract painting into realism. His experiences at Oberlin. Trips to Maine and the landscape there. How he brings together ideas with the actual scenery! Philip Koch is an eloquent speaker about his art and that is the most enjoyable to hear, his own words about his own art! Hearing his remembrances about his own childhood, memories about his father and sailing, a real pleasure! Koch's comparison of Hopper and Birchfield is so apt. Recent experiences in the Birchfield Penny Art Center as artist in residence again a piece of information is very apt and enjoyable. I truly enjoyed this interview!

    Christine, we met at PAFA in the lounge area, when we were both there. I was MFA '97. Hope you remember (www.judith-jacobson.com). I have followed your work ever since. I am a painter who knows many "artists." I am a painter who likes only a few. I just watched the entire video. (My hair looks like yours! I call mine Covid-red, with a halo of grey surrounding my face. Actually, I look like Moses in the Ten Commandments, when he comes down from the mountain!) What I really want to say is how I admire you and your work. There seems to be such a spirituality that is within you and certainly is in your work. I never heard you speak at great length, but the light and joy and depth of understanding of heritage, this morbid pandemic and its effect on you and all of us, has greatly impacted me. Your work comes from a deep place within you and is infinitely connected to wherever you are, whatever you do and all that you behold. This is, of course, speculation, but I am always uplifted by your color, brushwork, spontaneity and light, to touch on only some of the incredible aspects of your painting. Your drawing is moving, as well, almost reminiscent of Dickenson. I loved hearing you expound on your family, connections and ... life. You are a bright light in this world and brilliant!! Warm regards and stay well! Judith
