As warmer temperatures welcome in the vibrant landscapes of Central Texas, the walls of the Russell Collection Fine Art Gallery will also explode with color and rhythms when Daniel Maltzman and Brandon Miller present new works in their “Marking Time” art exhibit which opens April 1, 2014. A Meet the Artists reception is slated for Saturday, April 12 from 6-9 pm. The exhibit runs through April 30, 2014 and guests are asked to RSVP to the April 12 reception as there is limited space.
“The works in “Marking Time” set out to make something unbeknownst to me. Using a large canvas and a pointillist technique, I make random marks to “record” time and to stay in the moment, “ said Miller. He adds, “this meditative technique attempts to eliminate the ego and reduce painting to its simplest form which is ‘marks in time.’ The end result is a giant Rorschach for the viewer.”
Maltzman adds, “My work is about the enjoyment of painting and my style is a mix of modern masters with a contemporary edge. I will be showing some of my “Warholesque” portrait women paintings as well as my modern ‘richter inspired’ abstracts.”
