@PaulVerdell opens Forty Acres tonight at @LibraryStreetCollective from 6-8pm. ✨⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Driven by intuition, Verdell’s latest body of work delves deep into the realm of abstraction as the artist explores capabilities of medium and mind. Much of Verdell’s work to date centers around distinguishable subjects, however, his newest creations are devoid of such matter and neglect the use of live observations or photographs to dictate the paintings’ development. This stylistic departure derives from Verdell’s engrossed concernment with the peripheral elements of his compositions, areas that are often imagined spontaneously, and how they materialize on the canvas. ⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ #PaulVerdell #LibraryStreetCollective⁠⠀⁠⠀ Photos by PD Rearick
