Ronald Ahlstrom
Ronald Ahlstrom was an American abstract artist, born in 1922. An adept and sensitive painter, his most personal work is as an abstract expressionist collage maker. Using strips of paper, sometimes weathered and beaten into rough-hewn surfaces, he creates immaculately layered, lively and gestural compositions. He has exhibited his artwork nationally, including shows at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Corcoran Gallery of Art, in Washington, DC, among others.

- "STATIC" Abstract Acrylic Painting 72" x 72" by DOTLocated in Culver City, CA"STATIC" Abstract Acrylic Painting 72" x 72" by DOT ABOUT THE ARTIST: By compiling concepts from multiple philosophies, DOT’s Art seeks to explore an idea that has developed from different roots. Through the use of repeating geometric patterns enhanced by different color theories. A hallucinatory visual field is created.
