Jeff Ripple

Jeff Ripple is dedicated to a poetic realism in landscape painting which is, for him, the artistic union of an accurate depiction of a scene infused by his emotional response to the light and atmosphere on that landscape. He is a self-trained painter whose style involves carefully planned drawings, a reliance on sketches and studies painted in nature to inform studio work, and a treatment of light and atmosphere reminiscent of 19th Century artists working in the uniquely American Hudson River School and Luminist traditions.
