I paint
The capacity to articulate so much with lines and patterns fascinates me, be it a pencil, a brush or a pallet knife. For the past few years I have been experimenting with the fluidity of lines and layers of pattern in which I represent them in. The paintings are a continues process of growth. The line work is a constant push and pull of both experience and new mistakes. Each piece is immersed in a different environment letting the viewer challenge ones own narrative capabilities.
The below was pasted from a gallery show bio that was used this last year:
Justin is an active figure in the Los Angeles Art Community. He heads an art collective and pop up art show called PushGallery. He is also a documentary photographer, graphic designer and film editor. He has become an activist and outreach worker around issues on homelessness and starvation in both New York and Los Angeles.
