Basilio to Amalio 2, 40” x 74” , acrylic on honed acrylic
My artwork takes an interpretive view of natural patterns. Through my paintings I seek to create an organic development of form, depth and color working together to create a unique expression. “Organic Expressionism,” is a succinct way to describe my process.
“
I start with a clear acrylic panel and apply heat, wind, water, brush and pigment in a reverse order to create my paintings. In reverse glass the artist works from foreground to the background, the initial strokes being the most imperative and the fnal being of very little consequence; inverse of a canvas. By engaging forms of interlaced ovals, linear movement, arcs and felds of color, I seek to produce a unique visual expression in each painting.”-Christopher H. Martin Visit the gallery online at www.christopherhmartin.com.

he Vendue is the frst and only hotel in Charleston dedicated to the arts – in all forms. Their goal is to inspire guests at every turn. The hotel’s public areas feature 2-3 different exhibits per year. At the end of each exhibit, the current art is removed and the hotel becomes a “blank canvas” for their curators (Robert and Megan Lange of Robert Lange Studios) to create the next exhibit. In addition, all corridors and their Gallery Rooms also feature a collection of original art.
