About the Artist
My primary goal when creating my abstracts is to breathe life into what I do.
Cody Hooper’s contemporary acrylic paintings focus on the freedom and emotional expression of abstraction, while also maintaining a unique balance of color, composition, and texture. Spontaneous application of paint often results in unexpected symmetry on his panels, creating bold, yet beautifully balanced abstract art. Cody’s grasp of compositional features and painting techniques stem from his creative beginnings as a realistic watercolor painter.
After ten years of realism, he decided to dive into abstraction and the creative freedom it offered – but not without the skills he’d been practicing for most of his artistic career. “Having a realism background creates amazing abstract painters,” says Cody. “I use a lot of realism, but you don’t always see it.” Originally from Texas, Cody now lives and works in Albuquerque, NM and continues the success of his ever-evolving art career.
