Colorful abstract geometric painting on panel with shades of purple, blue, red, and dark green "Moving On", made by Vincent Pomilio in 2020 20 x 33 x 2 inches acrylic, pigmented plaster, and wax on panel Sides of the canvas are painted, additional framing is optional Excellent condition, Ready to hang as is. Vincent Pomilio is master when it comes to color composition. His abstractions on canvas and panel come to life with the most brilliant, yet unexpected color combinations. The artist begins by applying pigmented plaster, layer by layer, to the wood panel and builds up the composition with geometric shapes in red, orange, blue, purple, yellow and dark green, which are fragmented sporadically across the surface. The beautiful layering is created with different materials such as acrylic, wax crayon, pigment, Kolcaustico Venetian plaster, and marble dust. The artist first sections off segments with tape and then applies the mixed media pigment with a trowel. As it's drying he burnishes and carves into the surface to expose the different layers of color underneath. Refined beeswax is then applied to the top which makes the color more brilliant and acts as a sealant. The sides are cleanly painted so additional framing is not necessary. The artist's signature is located on the back along with wire for easy installation. The piece is in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. About the artist: Vincent Pomilio specializes in all painting media, canvas, paper and wooden panel. A visit to his studio in the bustling neighborhood of Manhattan’s Greenwich Village offers a unique insight into the artist’s process of his own art making. The right brain dominates here; skillful use of color, shape, line and scale are discovered via intuition, experimentation and quarter turns of the canvas. Pomilio has occupied this bohemian artist’s pad since his school days ended at New York University in 1978 and it is here that he continues to paint to this day. Abstractions of color explosions are harmoniously composed using a combination of acrylic, wax, pigmented plaster and marble dust to build up surfaces and introduce texture. “In the end, the challenge is to know when to stop,” says Pomilio. The result is a stunningly complex and layered composition of color that one could interpret as an aerial landscape view or motifs that resemble woven baskets. When it comes to abstractions, the artist rationalizes, “If you see it, it is there.” At one point in his career, Pomilio felt he was struggling to successfully produce small paintings using the scaled patterns that was common in his work. This prompted a new series - the Big-Little series – which encompasses a study of big images on a small scale. By introducing a degree of ‘minimalism’ he could explore color relationships while magnifying techniques used on larger canvases. The effect this project had on his work flow was one of renewed energy and confidence. He could complete a painting much quicker than with the larger canvases, allowing him to try various solutions and expel creative energy in a focused way. Earlier this year, he completed the 100th 12 x 12 inch painting in the series. This exhibit will feature #100 (as well as #99 and #98), highlighting other selections from this series in addition to select medium and larger paintings on canvas. VINCENT A.

131 Horizons by Vincent Pomilio is a contemporary abstract square painting of colorful horizontal stripes. 48 x 48 x 1 inches acrylic, pigmented plaster, wax on canvas Sides of the canvas are painted, no need to frame. Ready to hang as is. Vincent Pomilio is master when it comes to color composition. His abstractions on canvas come to life with the most brilliant, yet unexpected color combinations. This painting, appropriately titled 131 Horizon, is a contemporary spin on the abstract landscape. Bands of bright color in red, orange, blue, purple, yellow and green stretch horizontally across the canvas. The fragmentation might lead one to believe that these are collages, but they are actually many layers of built up medium. The beautiful layering is created with different materials such acrylic, wax crayon, pigment, Kolcaustico Venetian plaster, and marble dust. The artist first sections off segments with tape and then applies the mixed media pigment with a trowel. As it's drying he burnishes and carves into the surface to expose the different layers of color underneath. Refined beeswax is then applied to the top which makes the color more brilliant and acts as a sealant.
