About the Item
Steven H. Rehfeld (American, born 1954)
"Fluid Expression #2," 2024
Oil paint, Canvas, Stretcher Bars
The piece is signed on the back of the canvas.
"Fluid Expression II" by Steven H. Rehfeld, a piece from his captivating Fluid Expression series, stands as a vibrant testament to his innovative approach to abstract art. Measuring 64" x 56", this mixed media on canvas dazzles with a riot of colors that splashes across the canvas with spontaneous energy and dynamic motion. Rehfeld's mastery in manipulating form and hue crafts a visual feast that invites the viewer into a world of emotional resonance and perceptual engagement.
The artwork is a complex layering of colors—bold reds and subtle pinks mix with deep blues, vivid oranges, and creamy whites, creating a rich tapestry that reflects the artist's experimental spirit. The application of the paint varies from thick impasto to fluid streaks, suggesting a sense of movement and transformation. This piece not only explores the spectrum of color but also the interactions between them, where they converge and diverge, creating new hues and textures.
"Fluid Expression #2" is a celebration of the unpredictable and the spontaneous, embodying Rehfeld’s philosophy that art should evoke emotion and provoke thought, making each viewing a unique experience. This work would be a striking addition to any collection, appealing particularly to those who appreciate art that challenges the boundaries of traditional forms and expresses the inexpressible.
About the Artist:
Steven H. Rehfeld is now one of the top emerging artists in the United States. His works are groundbreaking, bold, and imbued with unflinching disregard for painting conventions. Many works are in collections and museums in the U.S.
Steven is also part of the 'Outsiders' school of art, originating in France in the 19th century. Also known as the Naïve movement, it was comprised of people with no art training at all, who suddenly started to paint. Many of them are from very challenging backgrounds. All they had was talent that had never before been tapped. In no time this movement became a significant art phenomenon and spread all over the world.
His work, however, has branched out past the movement and his use of earth elements renders a basic and raw interpretation of his message.

Steven H. Rehfeld
Steven H. Rehfeld, a California artist, holds a B.A. in studio art from the University of California, Santa Barbara. He draws inspiration from the 'Outsiders' school of art that originated in 19th-century France, known as the Naïve movement. Also referred to as the Naïve or Primitive art movement, was comprised of artists with no formal art training who discovered their talent and began painting. Many of these artists came from challenging backgrounds, and their raw talent remained untapped until they expressed themselves through art. The movement quickly gained prominence and spread worldwide. Steven Rehfeld's artistic style has evolved beyond the Naïve movement, incorporating earth elements to create a basic and raw interpretation of his artistic message. Discover the exclusive collection of Steven H. Rehfeld's artwork at The American Art Gallery. Artist Statement "My oil, acrylic, and mixed media paintings explore the dynamic relationship between progressiveness and tradition, personal and cultural experiences, and the interplay between the human form and iconography. Through these explorations, I engage in a dialogue that reveals how the intangible influences the material world. Color contrast forms, negative/positive space, and visual kinetic energy shape these artistic relationships. Additionally, I fuse abstract art with elements of realism to create a unique artistic experience."
