Tall Painting


This is the work of Holton Rower. A sculptor/painter from Greenwitch, New York. The piece above is comprised of a plywood base, and a pour technique of acrylic paint. Rower uses gravity to his advantage in his pieces. By pouring different colors of acrylic all on a center location at the top of his plywood canvas he creates an interesting effect of colors. each color remains separate pushing the one laid down before it down the plywood toward the base. The result being and interesting organic flow of colors and textures. I enjoyed watching this process, and would like to somehow incorporate this technique into my own pieces.
