QUOTES FROM REVIEWS:
"Her large, simple strokes create implied shapes of perfect equilibrium." - Deborah R. Kravetz, Art Matters "Jean Plough of Philadelphia throws a blast of bright color in her loosely brushed squarish Breath II abstraction." - Victoria Donohoe, Philadelphia Inquirer "Plough consistently works in bright acrylic color fields, and in the past she has called them landscapes... The fields are now openings in the surface, and she contrasts them with the wall-like , closed portions, now oil on linen." - Deborah Kravetz, Art Matters "Plough's landscapes are distilled to large and small color-field combinations, creating tranquil imagery through lush patterns." - Carla DiFonzo, Intelligencer Journal, Lancaster PA "Jean Plough often uses Old School Abstract Impressionism to address the concept of the landscape. However, the untitled painting here throws this concept into a topsy-turvy wealth of shape and color. The central image is a grand expanse of turquoise like a cloudless sky. Various lengths of other colors surround it, with the top of the painting a grand expanse of yellow. Of course, the landscape here is in fact a skyscape , with sunlight never reaching the ground, which the artist has not even included in the work. . . . The confluence of colors, offered in squares and rectangles, finds the angular nature of the composition softened by what is painted rather than how." - R.B. Strauss, The Kennett Paper "Jean Plough's richly hued abstract, Breath II, took the Merion Art & Repro Gift Certificate." - Marie Fowler, Main Line Ticket "Jean Plough's "Blue Arch Figure, Icarus" is a painting that packs evanescent form in an expressive singular sweeping arched motion." - Thomas Lawrence, Manhattan Arts "the bold colors and large canvases of Jean Plough's Windows & Doors drew the gallery-hopper into 3rd Street Gallery. In these fun, joyous paintings, the artist explores asymmetry by balancing a large periwinkle square with several smaller triangles, then tying the forms together with lines in black or red. Plough's pieces remind us of the bright carefree days of summer still to come." - Elizabeth Copson, The Bulletin "These acrylic-on-canvas paintings by Philadelphia artist Jean Plough convey a sense of serenity and peace. Mostly in cool blues and whites these large images usually show a single abstract human figure. Abstract-expressionist paintings, they result from Plough's efforts to trace some of her feelings back to their ... origins. The images emerged from the artist's subconscious on the verge of sleep." - Mark Longaker, the Georgetowner |
