Seth Anderson Field painting #32, Mixed Media on Wood 30" x 34' x 3"
Seth Anderson "My work has always been about drawing from the subconscious, daydreaming and essentially escaping from reality. It focuses on gesture and movement as well as the weight and feel of the piece. The style in which I have worked longest is minutely detailed, intricate and often whimsical, but in the field paintings my goal is to create more expansive areas of color. I want these works to reflect the practice of drawing. I relate it to the creation of a novel - the working manuscripts with handwritten edits, the slips of paper with random thoughts to be worked into later drafts". Born 1972, Washington DC.
