Piece description from the artist
Cornfield 2025
As a painter, color is central to how I express myself. It is the color and light that make the everyday subject matter of a cornfield interesting. In this photograph, the cool greens and vibrant blue sky are enhanced by the golden neutral tones and lemon yellows of the plants. Taken on a farm not so far from New York City, it is a quiet place that shows why New Jersey is called the “Garden State.”
Nicole Maynard is an artist working across media: painting, drawing, digital, and games. She received an MFA in Painting with a minor in Printmaking from the University of Pennsylvania and is originally from Boston, Massachusetts. Her work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions throughout the Northeast and Miami. Maynard’s paintings exist at the edge of abstraction and representation, using landscape and imagery such as houses and moving boxes to suggest environments in transition. Her compositions balance structure and spatial illusions, reflecting themes of permanence and impermanence, displacement, and belonging. Architectural ambiguity is conveyed through shifting forms, which play a central role in her process.
