Alex Selkowitz

Alex Selkowitz is a fine art oil painter who resides in Los Angeles, CA. After spending decades in the film industry as a lighting technician he has brought his knowledge of light, shadows and composition to his passion of fine art.
He is inspired by the bright Southern California light and colorful sunsets. His subjects range from dense urban concrete environments to the sprawl of suburbia littered with green spaces. Common everyday human made objects occupy his paintings which represent the human presence but his paintings typically are devoid of any humans. Painting in an impressionistic style his artworks evoke a calm liminal feeling and a dream like quality.
