About the Artwork:
“I hadn’t created a work in colored pencil in over a year and it was a joy to return. For me the process from loose, chaotic marks to refined form is a smooth one with less struggle in transition than with paint, and lends itself to creating imaginative imagery.” – James Oberschlake
About the Artist:
(Artist Bio)
I’ve gone from horror illustration in the mid-nineties, to a stream of fantastic or ‘visionary’ work, then to highly expressive abstract painting in grad school, 2011. Now, fueled by an obsession with materials and processes, I’m jumping all over those territories to try and unite what interests me most.
