About The Artwork
This is the third and the larger piece of three paintings that explore the history of Graffiti, from Paleolithic times to our times. The idea of communicating with imagery is as old as human kind. Words come from images. So graffiti brings those histories together. These three paintings, with more forthcoming, approach graffiti as a layered attempt to communicate overtime, so the imagery is so layered that one can no longer "read" the words, so we're back at step one. You also see some of this occur on train cars, but more so on walls in the streets of our cities. NOTE: This painting is not stretched, it is painted on primed canvas and will need mounting. It will ship rolled in a tube.

I currently practice art in Uvalde, Texas, about an hour west of San Antonio. I have a studio and art gallery in Uvalde and I having been teaching art at the college level for 14 years. I have exhibited in Chicago, Houston, San Antonio, Rhode Island, Corpus Christi, Mexico and Venezuela. Facebook: Abel Ortiz and Art Lab Contemporary Art Space. In 2022, after the Robb Elementary tragedy in my home town, I spearheaded a memorial mural project to memorialize the victims. I painted one of the murals, too.
