Andrew Purchin Set of 4 Paintings



These four 6’ x 6’ paintings were created at last July 4th Billy Gathering
as part of my painting 50 paintings in 50 days.My work spawns from my duel practices of being in the moment as I paint directly from life and from my practice of deep dance improvisation.   In the deep dance practice, I work to stay present in a microscopic way, sensing my bones, joints, muscles and cells and how sensation and movement connect. From that point I sense the other dancers’ presence.  A soft peripheral receptive vision is important to be aware of the other dancers as we collaborate with our bodies.  I use my body like a paintbrush carving the space.  When I paint on location, I dance directly with the world as it passes by.

Value of these are $360 for the 4 of them
Min Bid $100.
