J
im Malloy is an award winning author and artist who explores abstract expression using acrylics. His artwork is known for its raw style, vibrant colors and unorthodox technique. Of his work, Malloy says, “Painting for me is a journey, an exploration of imagination and emotion, upheaval and serenity. I love bold color and unconventional technique that aspire to evoke a response, whether it be a sigh or a gasp or just a smile.” Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, raised in southern New Jersey, Jim graduated college with a Bachelor of Arts from Gettysburg College. He resides in New Fairfield, CT and is a Resident Artist at RPAC Art Center in Ridgefield, CT. Jim is also a member of the Ridgefield Guild of Artists, Carriage Barn Art Center, Stamford Art Association, Kent Art Center and the Richter Association for the Arts.
(Above) Pinot Noir ‘Pinot Noir’ is an homage to one of the artist’s favorite wines; painted using acrylics applied with a credit card and a woodworkers syringe for the ‘legs.’ (Below) Like Jagger Music influences much of Jim Malloy’s work and Like Jagger is an abstract acrylic on paper inspired by the pop song Move Like Jagger by Maroon Five.
