This two-and-a-half minute video captures Jill Krutick, an abstract expressionist, as she develops her most recent inspiration and one of her largest pieces to date—The Coral Reef. A six panel, 6’ x 12’ work (each panel is 36 x 48 inches), was inspired by Krutick’s love for the world under the sea. Her diving days were spent exploring coral reefs and fish life in all its glory. It became an escape to visit this unique, exploratory world. Krutick reinterprets this journey through the use of mixed media — from a variety of acrylic based mediums to oil paint to even watercolors. Plastics, papers and other found objects are also used in the painting to recreate what we find in our oceans today. The beauty and “garbage” we find in the sea is captured in this abstract multi-panel work. We hope this work raises awareness about the preservation of our oceans, marine life and coral reefs.
