About the Item
This painting was created using a combination of gestural mark-making with oil crayon and blue vinyl paint on canvas. The expressive lines draw inspiration from both graffiti tagging and modernist painting traditions. The dynamic energy of the marks, paired with the fluid, sweeping motions of blue paint, evoke a sense of movement and spontaneity—qualities that give the work its fitting title, Breeze.

Matt Higgins is an artist and art professor who lives and works in Philadelphia, Pa. He received his MFA from The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and BFA from West Chester University. His work is included in numerous private and public collections throughout the United States, Europe and Australia. His various bodies of work focus on themes of abstraction, the landscape and text based paintings. His work can be viewed as a constant progression, as well as a cycle from one body of work to the next. He often times returns to existing themes or motifs with a fresh outlook after departing for periods of time. Growth and learning is a significant part of the artists practice and this continued openness and exploration is what keeps his work fresh and original from one body of work to the next, never settling for predictability or the mundane.
