HALEY JOSEPHS. ‘Mehetabel’, 2018
oil on canvas. 72 x 60 in.
($6,400.)
BTW . . that is painter DEVAN SHIMOYAMA, at center.
he appears as the subject in many of the dreamy new DANNY FERRELL paintings, which have been making waves, lately.
HALEY JOSEPHS’ paintings are not without their own, in-your-face . . ‘controversy’.
and yet, share a current common love for anything . . ‘barn’ imagery related / esp in the fashion world.
the big question is:
putting the fire out ?
or adding fuel – to the flames ?
and what’s with the very curious, but striking . . pioneer garb ?
metaphors abound.
the color palette is h-o-t, and passionate.
paintings for . . painters.
