About the Artist

Robert Alexander

Canada

Welcome to my gallery.
Painting is my passion, my way of expressing myself.
My style is very spontaneous. My instincts guide me in choosing my subjects, the palette of colors I am going to use. I love using bold colours.

Here are some citations and definition that best describe my artistic approach:
"Like emotions, colours are a reflection of life." - Janice Glennaway

"The painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through."
- Jackson Pollock

Action painting, sometimes called "gestural abstraction", is a style of painting in which paint is spontaneously dribbled, splashed or smeared onto the canvas, rather than being carefully applied. The resulting work often emphasizes the physical act of painting itself as an essential aspect of the finished work or concern of its artist.
