Fauna and flora elements blended into surrealist paintings by Josie Morway

Providence, Rhode Island-based artist Josie Morway creates intriguing large-scale oil paintings that blend fauna and flora elements, and surrealism and photorealism techniques.

I’ve been painting for most of my life, and this is what’s been coming out of me lately. My paintings are often described as ‘fragmented narratives’. I draw inspiration from the bits of word and phrase that bombard us daily in the form of faded ad murals, snippets of overheard conversation, the near-illegible promises of old signage. Stories defined as much by the info they lack as by what they present. Using animals as the main characters in my narratives, I’m able to explore gestures, postures and expressions that are both familiar, universal and still sometimes as ambiguous as those partial verbal messages.
