About the Item
John Baker’s “Tiptoe Kiss” is a 64 x 35 x 1.5 inch acrylic painting with collage on canvas in intense reds, greens and yellows of a young couple about to kiss in a forest. The central woman’s face is a solar radiance that casts its sunlight on the faces of the surrounding figures. The quilt-like variety of surface textures gives a sense of the density of the forest which envelopes, but also constitutes the figures, who are thus very literally “of the forest”. The sides are unpainted and the painting is signed and dated on the reverse.
John Baker is a widely exhibited painter based in Boston and New York whose solo exhibitions have been favorably reviewed in the Boston Globe (his paintings demonstrate that the human figure as a source of fresh ideas still endures), Art New England (Baker’s collages raise a bunch of interesting issues) and American Art Collector (John Baker’s wonderful and worthy project). A native of New York City, Baker was a pupil of Donald Judd for two years. The sculptor’s constructivist method remains an influence on Baker’s collage process, but Baker’s artistic results are more sensual and emotional as he adds the elements of subtle color harmony and reliance on impulse. Baker is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
