Original artwork description:

Like a dog, the Orange figure barks carelessly at the figure dangling on top. A cord is attached to the barking figures shoulders extending downward to its knees. With each lunge, his legs are lifted forward, allowing movement. With so much focus dedicated to the figure above, it's unaware to the direction it's moving.

About the Work

Each painting is intricately detailed with the intent of capturing the viewers attention regardless if they’re observing from afar or close up. Using a painting technique called automatism allows the plethora of shapes to form in the moment. This adds a level of uniqueness not found otherwise. Additionally I add layers of transparent paint to create a rich and complex color scheme. By combining the two elements, you’ll be presented with a piece of artwork that breathes personality into any environment.

Artist Statement

Using automatic painting techniques, my mind enters a meditative state. As I begin to follow the strings of the subconscious web, the organic forms develop within the painting. One form leads to another, like a trail of thoughts. It’s as if my mind and the paint are in sync with each other. As I explore my own mind, gaining an understanding of myself; I’m also gaining an understanding of the forms.

Materials used:

Oil on canvas
