About The Artwork

The title comes from the fact that when I started painting I just numbered them in the order they were completed. After awhile I kind of lost track so " # who's counting? " kinda just fit. All my pieces are painted on found wood. Like this one, they are usually are plywood. Sometimes I find them on the beach or on the side of the road or just out of a dumpster. And since they are rejects they are never perfect, in fact this one is not exactly rectangular. I often find imperfections are what make life beautiful. I am a self taught painter. Ever painting seems to be another experiment in color and texture. I'm always looking for another a new tool to use in my creative process. From something as simple as a nail or something as common as a fork. They all have possibilities. I never start a painting with a preconceived idea. To me it's all about color, texture, and some deep expression of an inner feeling. If you notice the screws in the photo they are from the fact that I would hang up my paintings around my hometown often on a near by fence. So this this piece does show a little ware and tear of spending several months outside. But I do plan to wire it for easy hanging. Or you could just screw it to your wall.

Enchanting trees of Alex Raynor, "That guy must really love trees", - that's what I thought first, viewing the paintings created by Alex Raynor. Taking a closer look at every one of them, I found myself captured by their mysterious attractiveness. The simple lines of the tree contrast amazingly to a very complicated background. It looks like the artist was working wholeheartedly at the background, creating his own universe on every new canvas, and then, when the universe was ready, he settled there one single inhabitant, to live and rule this new world. I can find a reflection of all my emotions in those trees, but they are much more than just a reflection. Everybody knows the trees as the symbols of eternal life. People come and pass, being busy with their very important problems, being worried and anxious, while the trees observe this fuss and stay calm and silent. Just as a walk in the woods brings peace to our hearts, viewing those painted trees can sooth our restless minds. It feels like a breath of fresh air. By S. Korlyakova
