My work is a little different because of the unique skills and abilities that I possess. Many of these abilities are extensions of the work I performed as a commercial artist when I was younger. The transferable skills I aquired then are used today to solve visual problems. Today I can look critically at my own work to determine how to change it to make it more interesting.
The artwork that I create are traditional oil paintings painted on double primed canvas or a wooden surface like masonite. Each painting is a collectable one-of-a-kind that fits into the decor of an office or home.
Sibley Home Portraits are drawn and
painted by hand. Each on is an original artwork, a one of a kind. They range in size from 6"x8" to 18 " x 24 " or larger in some cases.
These bright colourful paintings are infused with texture and contrast. I use a range of techniques from thin washes to darker colours to get the effects I am known for. The images are 100% original,
When I paint on site I try to capture as much of the essence of the place as I can. I interpret the scene in a way that is unique to my style of painting. Using as few colours as possible, I record the light and shadow, reflections and highlights. I always strive to introduce colour where in reality, the hue I've chosen is not there. This is where a painting changes from merely recording the scene as it presents itself to art.
As you browse through these pages, be sure to see the examples of People Portraits. After a long hiatus I've taken to painting the human form once again. It is the most complex and intriguing work that an artist can take on. I've painted architectural rendering from blueprints, as exacting as that is, portraits of people carry personality and a mood that only time and experience can convey.
