About the Item

Geometric surrealist composition depicting a totem-like form, composed of colorful surrealist three dimensional interlocking shapes, by Clayton Anderson (American, b. 1943). Signed "Clayton Anderson" and titled "Landscape #10 (Fragment Under Grey Sky)" on verso. Signature embossed into lower left edge of paper. Presented in a custom deep box frame with plexiglass. Image size: 20.75"H x 16"W Clayton Anderson (American, b. 1943) studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and worked with Ben Kimihira, Walter Stuempfig and Hobson Pittman. He is a Visionary and surrealist painter and a member of the California Visionary Artists Group. Anderson has developed a number of visually distinctive painting styles. Although the stylistic elements in his art have varied, there has been a unifying factor consistently running through his paintings which reflects his deep love for the unique, spiritual alchemy that arises from the combination of Beauty and Mystery. Artist's Statement: "Over the years my Geminian nature has led me to develop a number of visually distinctive painting styles. Although the stylistic elements in my art have varied, there has been a unifying factor consistently running through my paintings which reflects a deep love for the unique, spiritual alchemy that arises from the combination of Beauty and Mystery. Since my childhood I've been strongly attracted to creative works which possessed this combination, and I've searched for its unique, potent presence through the vehicle of my art. When Mystery refuses to fully reveal its secrets, the thinking mind temporarily gives up and, for a moment, is quiet. When Beauty is observed the heart expands and presents awareness with with an exquisite energy. The combination of a quiet mind and an expanded heart offers the opportunity for an extremely rich human experience. one for which I look daily in my Art and in my Life."

"Ab-scrap" - Abstract Geometric Composition in Acrylic on Wood Panel
Located in Soquel, CA
"Ab-scrap" - Abstract Geometric Composition in Acrylic on Wood Panel Dynamic abstract composition by Sam Dantone (American, b. 1971). This piece was created as a part of the "Ab-scrap" series, where Dantone uses excess paint from his sign painting business to create new compositions. Whenever there is a little extra paint on a brush, Dantone would add it to a panel, slowly creating a new composition out of the leftovers from his other work. Thus, each piece contains a wide variety of colors and brushstrokes, and the echoes of other compositions. Signed "Sam Dantone" on verso. No frame. Board size: 20.75"H x 8.75"W Sam Dantone (American, b. 1971) is an artist from Oregon who works as a sign painter, designer, and sculptor. Artist’s Statement: “Not once in my life do I know a time when I have not been an artist. My father tells that I once copied the Kleenex logo from the side of the box, at age three. I tribute my abilities to naïve confidence and other’s positive attention. As a kid, drawing was magical . . . Though my art stylings vary widely, one thread stitches all of my work together, (my art) is my critique on man’s apparent love for life and his constant destruction of it.” Exhibitions: 2015 - FoundSpace, Jackson, WY 2013 - Pacific Park Gallery, Coos Bay...
