"Ab-scrap" - Abstract Geometric Composition in Acrylic on Wood Panel
Located in Soquel, CA
"Ab-scrap" - Abstract Geometric Composition in Acrylic on Wood Panel
Dynamic abstract composition by Sam Dantone (American, b. 1971). This piece was created as a part of the "Ab-scrap" series, where Dantone uses excess paint from his sign painting business to create new compositions. Whenever there is a little extra paint on a brush, Dantone would add it to a panel, slowly creating a new composition out of the leftovers from his other work. Thus, each piece contains a wide variety of colors and brushstrokes, and the echoes of other compositions.
Signed "Sam Dantone" on verso.
No frame.
Board size: 20.75"H x 8.75"W
Sam Dantone (American, b. 1971) is an artist from Oregon who works as a sign painter, designer, and sculptor.
Artist’s Statement:
“Not once in my life do I know a time when I have not been an artist. My father tells that I once copied the Kleenex logo from the side of the box, at age three. I tribute my abilities to naïve confidence and other’s positive attention. As a kid, drawing was magical . . . Though my art stylings vary widely, one thread stitches all of my work together, (my art) is my critique on man’s apparent love for life and his constant destruction of it.”

Always Part and Always Whole II - Abstract Acrylic on Paper

Always Part and Always Whole II - Abstract Acrylic on Paper
Soft pastels create this ethereal abstract, by Florida artist, Ronald Dennis Reams (American, b. 1950).
Mat size: 16"H x 12"W
Paper size: 9.88"H x 7.38"W
Reams explores the energy of his art in a sculptural way, building layer upon layer, color upon color. This visceral interpretation aligns with Reams' intent to always paint in the moment, allowing the paint, the emotion, and the energy of the painting to direct what happens on the canvas.
In the late nineties, Reams began putting vignettes of drawings and paintings together. He then built fifteen-foot panels of these fragments, creating the equivalent of abstract collage. These large-scale pieces reflected his search for a non-routine way of painting. This new media approach paved the way for the works that followed, as the artist carved out a distinct artistic style of his own.
The artist began his formal education at Ringling School of Arts but credits his mentors - David Anderson, Edgar...

My favorite of the Collection. A bold figurative painting by California-based artist, Ricardo de Silva (Brazilian, 20th Century). Two figures in abstract reds and blues stand playfully tossing objects in red, blue and beige, splashes of red erupt. Reminds me of a Birthday celebration.
