About the Item

Painting has always been a part of my life. Over the course of many years I explored various styles of painting. I found that the more I let go and gave into simply the act of painting a brush stroke technique developed. I began painting with small short upward strokes of color next to and on top of each other. This seemed to give the painting a sense of energy whereas with traditional techniques of smudging and mixing flat layers of colors together did not. I am excited to see/experience how I can continue to develop this process in new and creative ways. As I see it, our world is made up of light particles vibrating at various frequencies. These light particle frequencies come together to create color and form. This light is what I paint. The small dots of color that I apply to the canvas represent particles of light coming together. The small specs of unpainted canvas represent the emptiness of space in-which these particles exist. The blurry impressions of some of my paints represents the vibration of these particles of light coming together to create form.

Vesta
By Mark Zimmermann
Located in East Quogue, NY
Turquoise abstract painting - Acrylic and graphite on canvas in artist frame. Signed on back by the artist. Mark Zimmermann's work is based on the fusion of meditative fields, architectonic structures and an organic gestural line that is one-part intentional and one-part accidental. Zimmermann clearly demonstrates his deftness of hand though labored bands of color, building and editing one band upon other, until the editing process renders compositions that combine both hard-edge and action-painting abstraction. In discussing this work, the editor and writer, Larry Qualls noted,“...a majestic landscape...

Forever IV
By Thomas Paul Raggio
Located in New York, NY
Abstract. Vibrant. Painting. About the Artist: "I contemplate every color, mark, and placement of the line to formulate what I call rhythmic velocities: relationships of color and motion that give life to the composition, creating a heartbeat. I am interested in the duality of math and design: through repetition, a line made of color becomes a rhythmic pattern. This concept is found when composing music, organic landscapes and architectural structures. By referencing these sources, my abstractions transcend their formal components, reaching beyond a minimalist canon. My work is composed of hard edges and thin lines set against an abstract field or a pictorial space. Each color has a quickness that is relative to the colors surrounding it; this gives my paintings visual movement and dislocates the viewer. Through linear and geometric forms, my paintings explore design and mathematical concepts found broadly throughout culture. They are improvised from a wide range of sources such as my conversations with scholars in various fields of music, architecture and engineering, my life experiences and travels."
