About The Artwork

POPART | STREETART | URBAN | GRAFFITI | EXPRESSIONISM | SPIRITUAL ABSTRACTS | MODERN ART | POST-MODERN ART | 2020 Thank You for Visiting! My work attracts people who are looking for authenticity, every painting captures a moment in time, frozen forever on the canvas. Each work is made using a sledgehammer to cause an explosion with paint; expanding and accenting the infinite variety of forms and colors present in nature. Modern vibrant color formations in pink, white, red, and black graffiti marker. I raise the Sledgehammer over my head and strike down… BANG! Colors race and reach outward from the center, splash twist across each composition crashing onto the canvas; like skipping pebbles on a pond. Often times the paint gets angry before settling; it bubbles and mixes in strange ways, other times the dried paint cracks like the floor of a desert adding a new level of weirdness to the aftermath. My paintings are a struggle; each one a balancing act between color, shape, line, surface, space, abstraction, and object. Every time you look at one of my works you will notice something; a small nuance or intricacy that you did not see before, it will brighten up your day and become an endless source of inspiration for your life. I want you to see a starting point and perhaps get momentarily lost; I hope that you will dream. __________________________________________ EVERY PIECE IS CREATED IN MY STUDIO, MADE FOR URBAN LIFE, TO PERSONIFY THE BUSTLING, SEXUALLY CHARGED MARCH FORWARD YOU FEEL WHEN LIVING IN A CITY, TO KNOW YOU'VE MADE IT, OR TO GIVE HOPE THAT SOON YOU WILL. YOU ARE POWERFUL. YOU ARE PASSIONATE, AND YOU'RE ONLY JUST GETTING STARTED. ___________________________________________ One of a kind painting comes with a certificate of authenticity. Created with high-quality acrylic paint, arrives ready to hang on your wall, the sides are painted. The piece will be titled, dated, and signed in permanent marker. Yours to keep forever! ______________________________________________ Copyright © 2020 Chris Crewe - All Rights Reserved.

« I hope you will see a starting point and maybe get a bit lost: I hope that you will dream. » Emerging artist Chris Crewe compares life to a trapeze act. Always knowing that the next rung will be there, he hasn't fallen yet. The Canadian artist has been studying the use of sledgehammer as a paintbrush, replicating marks, and incorporating them into his abstract works. Crewe also makes paint markers out of plastic bottles by melting the plastic to turn the lid into a spout, often using them to draw in free-flowing gestures. His unique works are meant to 'brighten your day'.
