I took a six month hiatus from painting to have personal refection. I planned to go as far as the end of the year, but after the tragic events in Charlottesville, I knew I had to return to the process. This painting is the first piece from the hiatus. My works endeavor to further my pursuits to embody the paradox of doubt, mourning, delight, and beauty.

He has been greatly influenced by Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman and Claude Monet. When he's not painting, he enjoys backpacking, going to music venues, working out and spending time with friends.

This painting is part of Wes Sumrall's current mixed media series, Aerials, influenced by the overshots of Earth from the International Space Station. The metal leaf used has a tendency to tarnish slightly after a few years. Wes explains that with the crisis of climate change, these paintings portray the ephemeral nature of earth, and paradoxically embody its beauty through the inevitable decay.
