About the Artwork:
“Exploration of organic form and variations in surface texture excite me most in painting, but I’ve also recently enjoyed trying to incorporate more recognizable imagery. I like the practice of working from references, which grounds me back into drawing skill and also immediately demands that the light in these imaginative works be considered more carefully.” – 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
