About the Item

Surreal depiction of a figure walking though a city by Marshall Woodall (American, b. 1958). The cityscape is represented in outlines only, creating the impression of being lit up in neon lights at night. The figure walking through the scene is an outline, reminiscent of a walk sign. Throughout the piece, there are hidden faces in the buildings. Signed, dated, and titled on verso along the stretcher: Marshall Woodall Aug 12/2019 'Abandoned by my family in Chicago' Unframed, but the edges are painted for a frame-less display. Canvas size: 16"H x 20"W Marshall Woodall (b. 1958) was born in Oklahoma City, OK. Woodall’s fascination with art began at an early age. His life has been a journey into self-expression and storytelling through music, drawing, and painting. ‘‘I am off the wall and have an unusual imagination. I think about things that people don’t always think about or notice.’’ Self-taught but inspired by Gary Larson, Mr. Woodall uses humorous, and satirical pieces to handle life’s struggles. Being chased, pressured, and meeting deadlines are common themes in his work. ‘‘Discovering how to express myself is my objective.’’ Woodall’s piece ‘‘Terror in Doctor Grisdale’s Office’’ was featured at the California Museum of Art’s ‘‘Art Advocacy’’ exhibition in 2017. Marshall Woodall is a member of The Claraty Arts Project, an arts program, studio and gallery in Santa Cruz committed to the equality and empowerment of people with developmental and intellectual disabilities.
