We had such a good response to the new work by Dan Larsen in January, we are pleased to hold over some select paintings for the month of February.
Larsen is a regional abstract artist using "paint in motion" as he calls it to express a feeling as the viewer contemplates his work. Loose and fluid, Larsen takes Pollock to another level by letting the paint and its unique reaction to its counterparts define some of the process. Close up views of his work are as interesting as viewed from a distance as one tries to determine just how he did it.
"Deliberately Organic" is a direction that Larsen continues to explore where he views much of his work as organic interludes in nature. The beginning, the end and the process in between allow you to see process and formation.
His multiple applications of paint and the manipulation of the medium creates an interesting and contemplative canvas that holds the viewer's attention and allows for a visual experience traveling back in time or far into the future.
