MEET THE ARTIST

Don Wass

My paintings are primarily an exploration of how color, texture, and composition work together in a shallow space. Simple shapes against a background of loose form and color, and paint that fluctuates between ragged-edged and raw, to hard-edged and refined continue to challenge me.

For most of my painting career I have worked in a series of paintings that push me to explore a set of ideas until I'm not learning anything new, I'm bored, I'm not at least a little surprised by what I see happening in the paintings, or I'm afraid to go any further. It takes a number of paintings to experiment with all the possibilities of a given set of ideas. Each of these paintings are created by applying many layers of acrylic on heavy Arches paper.

When I was a little boy, I loved reading comic books and would try to understand the story just by looking at the pictures—I actually hated reading the text. Looking back, I wish someone had realized and explained to me that I was a visual learner. It would have made school a lot easier to navigate.

“My Artistic practice is a continuous chase for that elusive feeling when everything finally comes together just right"

“If you could say it in words there would be no reason to paint. Edward Hopper

“The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls"
