Alex has been working this Spring experimenting with scale and materials. While working predominantly as a painter, he doesn't shy away from sculpture and collage, and these elements tend to bleed into his paintings. His work veers into the 3D through his application of materials as well as hanging and display preferences, showing a thoughtfulness not only for painterliness but also for his substrates and additive elements. He is inspired by everyday materials and interactions as well his chosen mediums. His most often used materials include oil paint, gouache, markers, charcoal and resin.
