15 x 15 in.

Intrigued by the pursuit of compositions with abstract elements contrasting the representational style of an image, Jeff Bellerose explores the delicate balance of reality within a painted surface.  To further create a blended realism, Bellerose adds the component of destruction, whether it be employing painterly effects to scar or cut the image or drips, to emphasize the conflict of realism. With urban views, sensory rich interiors and meditative waves, the artist captures moments, moods and atmospheres from his daily life.

"There is something ominous and fascinating in the grand structures and caverns of big cities."
