Get Jeff Muhs Email Alerts. John Wegorzewski and artist Jeff Muhs Date:. Jeff Muhs uses the idea of supernature as an ongoing manifestation of self-discovery for his painting process both intended and happenstantial. Muhs creates work that has become its own unique process of natural creation and discovery. This process began when he first stumbled upon a more spontaneous method of mark-making using improvised brushes and black oil paint over a highly prepared surface.
Through the random and overlapping application of the paint thinned to various degrees an organic black and white cosmos evolves. These initial paintings, or backgrounds, are simultaneously ethereal and earthly, displaying an intuitive playfulness that is buttressed by the artists' knowledge and understanding of his materials.
